Dear Helpers,
I am pretty much new to PXE installation and even System management. (Please forgive me if any term is not vague or incorrect.)
Almost for 4 days, I have been struggling to install FreeBSD-12.2-RELEASE-amd64-disc1.iso into the hard disk but I am not sure about how I set the boot file configuration under pxelinux.cfg accordingly.
BTW installing the image over the memory with mfsbsd is working good over pxe boot. I guess DHCP, TFTP, and HTTP setup seems good. Here is the boot configuration file for msfbsd installation.
Now question I have is, what should be the boot configuration for the OS installation on the hard disk with the standard ISO image not mfsbsd?
I tried to change the INITRD line with the standard ISO file like "INIRTD http://172.16.0.2/bsd/fbsd/amd64/12.2-RELEASE/FreeBSD-12.2-RELEASE-amd64-disc1.iso" but it didn't work at all. Doesn't KERNEL value need to change to something else?
Any comments or helps would be greatly appreciated!!
Best,
Paul
