#How to netboot macbook for mac
Do you know if anyone has imported other netboot sets, from other 3rd party apps? We are currently using DeployStudio for Mac imaging needs and it would be very beneficial to be able to use its custom NBI to boot my Mac clients until I can get the full Mac infrastructure ported over.Īfter taking some cool down time, your response did help me get back up on the horse and try again. It worked great, but without the Agent on it there, there wasn't much I could do. The videos didn't really help much, for now, but I expect them to help when I get as far as imaging and creating my real NetBoot set I just ported one over I had made for testing on my OSX 10.9.3 server. Where does that leave me? Do I have to go all the way back to 2008 R2, or can I get this to work with 2012 at least? To say the least, I'm a bit aggravated that there's specific engineering needs that aren't addressed, even with a hyperlink, in the main Documentation, to Macs Documentation. Well, I don't see SFU anywhere and have read that they're deprecated. The problem here, is my site server is 2012 R2 as I was led to believe it was supported.

2 Questions:ġ) What, if any, DHCP options are needed for PXE booting?Ģ) When the above failed, I tried getting NetBoot to work, but since the documentation assumes Windows only (and no reference to OSX support) I pulled up the CMS for Mac documentation to find out I was missing Role Services for NFS and Windows Services for Unix (SFU) not mention that I don't remember Site server documentation mentioning needing IIS on DS sites, either, so that was a surprise while troubleshooting.

I was trying to test Deployment solution yesterday and seem to be having DHCP problems on the subnet with the DS Site server. I am coming to the project pretty green, as far as Altiris back ground engineering, but I have already setup my NS, Off-box SQL and Site server.

See Full List On Lowendmac.I am in the process of standing up a CMS 7.5 SP1 validation environment, which will run along side my production 7.1 environment. What hardware did you build the boot image on? How did you capture it? Can you boot from other hardware with the same image? You are not trying to do this over wireless, right? This is likely the only way to gather information. Since you are booting from a locked volume, there will be no way to record the kernel panic as with normal panics. Try this.ġ: Boot the macbook holding down the N keyĢ: As soon as you see the system acquire the server, hold down the V key for verbose loggingģ: When the system kernel panics, with luck, you will see the reason why
#How to netboot macbook driver
If the image is valid, then there is a problem with the client system, perhaps the build or specific driver support. Let's assume that you've created a valid netboot image (I know, large assumption). The error is manifesting on the client, not on the server. The real way to tell what is going wrong is to boot the workstation into verbose mode.

All we are seeing in the bootp/dhcp exchange between the client and the server (your netboot server is obviously also the dhcp server). What you are showing is not really an error.
