DnsMasq Client IP not setting to DHCP

Chetan Diwani — Fri, 30 Jul 2010 06:49:24 -0400

Hello,

I am facing issue in DNSMasq with Ubuntu Client. Here is the My setup Details.

I have Configured DNSMasq as DHCP + DNSMasq with tftp and Pxe boot enable ,My Client is also getting DHCP IP on booting and OS is loading without error.

but the issue is when I cat /etc/network/interfaces it shows auto eth0 iface eth0 manual instead of dhcp , also in Network-Gui when I try to edit my etho in the client,it showing ifupdown(eth0) it is not allowing me to change the IP , Edit button is disable.

I search so many post but did not get the solution, My PXE image does not have this Entry , I am using Ubuntu 10.4 as server and Ubuntu 9.10 in client.

PXE Booting openSUSE, gives 'invalid or corrupt image'

When I boot using PXE Boot into openSuse, from the menu, I get an error saying 'invalid or corrupt kernel image'. The initrd.img file, and vmlinuz file were both copied from a openSUSE 11.2 system, which is what I'm trying to setup PXE Boot for. PXE Boot works fine, dhcpd, and tftpd both work fine, the box receives an ip, it is directed to the proper file which I know by viewing the log file /var/log/messages, they are at the bottom so you can see them.

=================================

ll /boot/vmlinuz lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 28 May 12 20:46 /boot/vmlinuz -> vmlinuz-2.6.31.5-0.1-default ll /boot/initrd lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 27 May 12 21:25 /boot/initrd -> initrd-2.6.31.5-0.1-default

initrd.img and vmlinuz were copied from initrd-2.6.31.5-0.1-default and vmlinuz-2.6.31.5-0.1-default respectively

=================================
