Hello everyone.<br><br>I recently tried setting up an FAI server (fai-project.org) to PXE boot an automatic install of Linux to a machine.<br>There is one major problem, in my opinion:<br>It isn't automated enough....<br><br>To use the PXE functionality, one needs to either assign every MAC address in ISC-DHCP configs (and I know you can do a range of MAC addresses, I just don't know what to use since we have a variety of laptops) and I think the IP needs to be set in /etc/hosts.<br>(Source: <a href="https://fai-project.org/fai-guide/#_a_id_bootdhcp_a_configuration_of_the_dhcp_daemon">https://fai-project.org/fai-guide/#_a_id_bootdhcp_a_configuration_of_the_dhcp_daemon</a> )<br><br>Alternatively, I can make a FAI USB that will search for the monitoring FAI server.<br>But this requires booting to the USB every time, which means moving the USB(s) across laptops as it gets figured out.<br>(Source: <a href="https://fai-project.org/fai-guide/#autodiscover">https://fai-project.org/fai-guide/#autodiscover</a> )<br><br>So... Does anyone know a PXE install server that will install a Linux system and only needs the computer to boot through PXE to make it happen, and doesn't have a requirement to specify MAC addresses?<br><br>Or perhaps there is a way to make ISC-DHCP not need to care about the MAC address used..?<br>I dunno, at this point, let me know what you all think.
