Title: MD Installation failed
Post by: KingCrab on August 31, 2007, 12:03:32 AM
Hi,
I would like to install some MDs on HDDs. I though the installation script would detect a running core and asked if I would like to only install a MD, but that didn't happen. Its just the regular installation of hybrid or core. All the machines get there ips correctly from the dhcp server on the core. Did anyone have an idea why this could happen or how to install a md using an other way?

If your trying to add the machines as pxe booted MD's then just set their bios's to pxe boot, connect them to your LAN and they will be autodetected and setup.

I tried using the lan boot option, but it didn't work either. This is my output:
QuoteCLIENT MAC ADDR: 00 0c 29 af 16 53 GUID XXXX
CLIENT IP: 192.168.80.253  MASK: 255.255.255.0   DHCP IP: 192.168.80.1
GATEWAY IP: 192.168.80.1
PXE-E32: TFTP open timeout

Independent from that try, I have wireshark watch my connection and when I start the installation software on kubuntu desktop, it broadcasts a message, but nobody ever responses. Any ideas what going wrong with my system?
