It seems that in latest versions of both 1204 and 1404 the intial network boot config is broken. There is no default configuration available (the file /tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/default is missing). So I can't add a new MD.
I tried to install first the 1404 and after seeing this problem I made a new installation of 1204 (network install as mentioned in the wiki).
Any ideas where the problem could be located?
I managed to get one step further, I ran manually /usr/pluto/bin/Diskless_BuildDefaultImage.sh, it boots, but now Diskless_Setup.sh is failing and the boot process is hanging at "Running Disked_Setup.sh"
run Diskless_CreateTBZ.sh it will fix your problem.
The current DVDs do not include the Diskless Image by default. They will be re-enabled at some point.
Please run /usr/pluto/bin/Diskless_CreateTBZ.sh prior to trying to PXE boot any MDs.

Thanks for the info, but there is still something holding back the build process for the diskless clients. I get the following error in the output of Diskless_CreateTBZ.sh:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
lmce-md-meta : Depends: pluto-avwizard (>= 2.0.0.46) but it is not going to be installed
Depends: pluto-avwizard (< 2.0.0.47) but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
When I try to install pluto-avwizard with "apt-get install pluto-avwizard", I get the following:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
pluto-avwizard : Depends: lmce-avwizard-skin-basic (< 2.0.0.47) but 2.0.0.47.9~lmce1 is to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
So I suppose the dependencies of pluto-avwizard have to be updated.
hrmph. I see. Yep, that'll have to get fixed up. Thanks for reporting! We'll get that in asap. You can watch http://wiki.linuxmce.org/index.php/LinuxMCE-1204_pre-alpha for changes as they are applied to the 1204 repository.

It's working fine now, thanks a lot. BTW, it wouldn't be a good idea to run those scripts as a part of the installation? Or they are supposed to, but something is broken at the moment?
Not everybody wants/needs an extra Media Director.
We used to have the diskless image on the dvd, and it will likely make a return again at some point. We've been making a lot of changes to how the system installs recently. It is a lot easier to test and debug the DVD installation when the DVD size is 600Mb smaller.
Thanks for the feedback!
