Comment on PXE booting ESXi 4.1 installer from Altiris(HP RDP) by Tim

@5truja So thanks for the instructions, I got it to PXE boot but where do you specify the install files? I don't need the ks.cfg necessarily, just how to locate the system image. When I go through this, I get an installer failure since it is asking for the system image.

I would like to try but to what “curren 3x brach” are you reffering to. There is bunch of 3.x which of these did you get it to work and what ver of altiris do you have?

Your post was a real help to me. I needed to get the PXE build for ESXi 4.1 on Altiris in a hurry.
I found that steps 16-18 were not needed. It appears as if Altiris will rename pxelinux.0 to MenuOptionxx.0 on it’s own.
Otherwise, I am building ESXi from PXE using your directions.
Thanks

It may be powered off and still display an image on the screen. That is the nature of e-ink. Power is used to change the screen, not to keep the image on it. Try sliding the power button after the reset to see if it powers up. If not, you may want to try charging it for a bit.

Thank you so much! I think Sony owes you now too, considering how much hassle you saved them.

I have to add….

I’ve calibre on linux too but, the system doesn’t allow me rename the file \database\cache\media.xml because, linux treat the reader as a read only file system to protect it.

So, I did the de job under Window$$$ XP (Aparently this is a case when the vulnerabilty issues of XP can save the day)

If windows treat the reader as another massive storage media…… if I erease something by mistake….. should I toast the reader by mistake?
