Firstly, Thanks to Marty it works like charm BUT...:)
I am using Redhat 6.2 with rtl8139 chipset. I configured my dhcp as Marty
had shown in his email.Got the mknbi.1.2.x. The client can boot using PXE
to load the etherboot.
The problem I got when the client boots up, it freezes at
Freeing unused kernel memory: 44K freed
Warning: unable to open an initial console
Kernel panic.No init found.Try passing init=option to kernel
Not sure where to look for what causes the error.Hope Marty can give some
pointers.
Thanks
