I boot over the network using PXE.
On my build machine, I have installed a tftpserver. Specifically, I use
the one built into dnscache. In /tftpboot, I have symlinks to pistachio,
sigma0, and the root of the build tree.
My build machine boots using PXE. It gets an IP address, contacts
my build machine and loads [grub2pxe](http://grub.enbug.org/PXEBOOT).
Note that there is no need to use pxelinux; grub2 is a valid PXE
executable. Further, grub2 uses the PXE interface for accessing the
network, so if your hardware supports PXE, then you do not need to
worry about a network driver. Here is how I build grub2 and the
grub2 image:
cd ~/src
svn co svn://svn.savannah.gnu.org/grub/trunk/grub2
cd grub2
mkdir build
cd build
../configure --prefix=$HOME/src/grub2/install && make && make install
cd ~/src/grub2/install
bin/grub-mkimage --output=core.img --prefix="(pxe)" pxe pxecmd help reboot serial multiboot pc configfile normal boot
cat lib/grub/i386-pc/pxeboot.img core.img > grub2pxe
Here is my /tftpboot/grub.cfg, which sends output to the first
[[serial_port]]:
# Timeout for menu
set timeout=1
# Set default boot entry as Entry 0
set default=0
menuentry "Viengoos" {
multiboot /viengoos/laden/laden -o serial -D
module /pistachio
module /sigma0
module /viengoos/viengoos/viengoos.stripped -D 3 -o serial
module /viengoos/hieronymus/hieronymus.stripped
}
