Re: how to script for SLAM

Good day Paul,

You asked about using gPXE to fetch and load a Windows PE environment
utilizing MEMDISK.

Your first question seemed to be concerning HTTP versus TFTP.  In your
sample script, replace

http://webserver/

with

tftp://tftpserver/

and that should do the trick.

Your second question concerned the SLAM protocol, so you might enjoy a
look at the gPXE source code file gpxe/src/net/udp/slam.c  It sort of
looks like you'd have to replace

http://webserver/

with

x-slam://slamserver/

as well as to enable the SLAM protocol in a gPXE compilation, by editing
gpxe/src/config/general.h and changing the line

#undef  DOWNLOAD_PROTO_SLAM

to

#define  DOWNLOAD_PROTO_SLAM

and then recompiling gPXE.

I hope this helps.
