二、安装和配置dnsmasq和tftpd-hpa
1.安装dnsmasq和tftpd-hpa
1.1 安装dnsmasq 
dnsmasq是一个轻量级的tFTP、DHCP、PXE和DNS服务器。其中PXE、DHCP和tFTP服务是PXE网卡网络启动安装程序所必须的。我们在这里使用它提供DHCP和DNS服务。
# apt-get install dnsmasq
1.2 安装tftpd-hpa
tfpd-hpa是另外一个tFTP服务器。我们用tftpd-hpa来提供tFTP服务。
# apt-get install tftpd-hpa
2 配置cobbler 接管dnsmasq和tftpd-hpa
cobbler本身具备管理dnsmasq和tftpd-hpa的功能。所以我们只需要配置cobbler就可以了。
2.1 配置cobbler接管DHCP、DNS和tFTP服务
修改配置文件 /etc/cobbler/settings
需修改和修改后的值如下:
manage_dhcp: 1
manage_dns: 1
manage_tftpd: 1
restart_dhcp: 1
restart_dns: 1
pxe_just_once: 1
next_server: <server's IP address>
server: <server's IP address>
修改后:

2.2 指定接管的DHCP、DNS和tFTP服务器类型
修改配置文件/etc/cobbler/modules.conf
修改后
# egrep -v '^#|^[ \t]*$' /etc/cobbler/modules.conf
[authentication]
module = authn_configfile
[authorization]
module = authz_allowall
[dns]
module = manage_dnsmasq # uses dnsmasq
[dhcp]
module = manage_dnsmasq # uses dnsmasq 
[tftpd]
module = manage_in_tftpd  # defaut, uses the system's tftp server, in this example, use tftpd-hpa
3 配置DHCP、DNS、tFTP服务
由于我们配置了cobbler接管DHCP、DNS和tFTP服务,所以我们不需要单独修改dnsmasq和tftpd-hpa的配置文件,只需要修改Cobbler中DHCP、DNS和tFTP相应的配置模板即可。
Cobbler会自动帮助我们做同步工作。
3.1 配置DHCP和DNS服务
3.1.1 修改配置
修改/etc/cobbler/dnsmasq.template 
修改后:
# Cobbler generated configuration file for dnsmasq
# $date 
#
# resolve.conf .. ?
#no-poll
#enable-dbus
read-ethers
addn-hosts = /var/lib/cobbler/cobbler_hosts
#domain=
dhcp-range=192.168.88.100,192.168.88.254
dhcp-option=3,$next_server
dhcp-lease-max=1000
dhcp-authoritative
dhcp-boot=pxelinux.0
dhcp-boot=net:normalarch,pxelinux.0
dhcp-boot=net:ia64,$elilo
$insert_cobbler_system_definitions
3.1.2 同步配置
同步配置到dnsmasq
# cobbler sync
3.2 配置tFTP服务
3.2.1 修改配置
修改配置文件/etc/cobbler/tftpd.template
修改后:
# default: off
# description: The tftp server serves files using the trivial file transfer \
#       protocol.  The tftp protocol is often used to boot diskless \
#       workstations, download configuration files to network-aware printers, \
#       and to start the installation process for some operating systems.
service tftp
{
disable                 = no
        socket_type             = dgram
        protocol                = udp
        wait                    = yes
        user                    = $user
        server                  = $binary
        server_args             = -B 1380 $args
        per_source              = 11
        cps                     = 100 2
        flags                   = IPv4
}
3.2.2 同步配置
同步配置到tftp-hpa
# cobbler sync
4. 检查前边的操作
4.1 检查端口开放
# netstat -tunlp

4.2 检查PXE网络启动
在与cobbler服务器同一个网络找一台机器,BIOS调整从网络启动:

重新启动机器,正常情况下应该会进入Cobbler的网络启动菜单:

如果不能进入这个菜单,首先需要检查前边的步骤是否正确。还可以检查cobbler程序的日志。
