PXE-Z

A python project that aims to quickly and easily setup PXE on RHEL and Debian systems.

Vagrant

This project includes a Vagrant file, for ease of use/development. To get started, simply run vagrant up and ssh in:

git clone https://github.com/ryanhartje/pxe-z
cd pxe-z
vagrant up pxe
vagrant ssh pxe

Once you are in the VM, escalate to root and run pxe_z.py:

sudo bash
cd pxe-z
./pxe_z.py

If the python version is broken, there is the bash fallback:

sudo bash
cd pxe-z
./install.sh

This will get you started, you can use the defaults to get setup.
