![]() If you're targeting amd64 then you will add the above to build/pkg-lists/netboot/amd64.cfg instead of build/pkg-lists/netboot/i386.cfg.Ĥ. Note: You need to modifiy the config file for the target architecture. Modify the build/pkg-lists/netboot/i386.cfg file, add to the top: #include "network-console" Get the build deps: apt-get build-dep debian-installerģ. Grab the debian installer source: apt-get source debian-installerĢ. I spent about 2 days on and off figuring this little sequence out. I tried this only on i386 machines, running various versions of Red Hat Enterprise Linux (at the start :). It really is easier to do it this way than to try and debootstrap something. This is quite easy to do if you use the installer, but a screaming nightmare otherwise. Seriously, I wanted access to some of the new features of sarge, such as LVM on software RAID as root. The target system is assumed to be running another version of linux (any one will, hopefully, do, as long as they're using a regular bootloader like lilo or grub (both tested)). But they're a good dive into hacking the debian installer to do kinky stuff. You'll need to be able to build and configure stuff for yourself. ![]() These instructions are not for the weak of heart. These instructions detail how to do that. It allows you to do some really cool stuff- like a completely remote full installation of Debian. ![]() The DebianInstaller/NetworkConsole is really neat. ![]() Installing Debian remotely using the network console ![]()
