I'm stuck on a problem, and hoping you guys can help me out.
Our setup:
1) PXE server Dell KACE (only allows ISO files for PXE boot)
2) TFTP server - Accessible via command line, GET allowed, PUT restricted. All packages can successfully be pulled down to local machine.
All .tcz packages came from
http://repurpose.vmwarecloud.at/What we have tried:
The machine boots off of CD with these same files just fine, and everything works.
We combined the three original lst files in one;
tce.lstWe followed the Wiki on setting up TFTP, and here is our
isolinux.cfg:
display boot.msg
default tc
label tc
kernel /boot/vmlinuz
append initrd=/boot/core.gz nozswap tftplist=172.18.0.22:/tce.lst bkg=win7bg2011.jpg vga=794 xvesa=1280x1024x16 quiet maxcpus=1

prompt 1

kmaps.tczOne interesting thing about this
tce.lst (for me at least) is that we can see all of the .tcz packages loading at boot,
except for the last one, no matter what it is. We tried moving the vmware-view-vlient-1.5.tcz line up above kmaps.tcz and now kmaps doesn't show that it was succesfully loaded.
The end result is that we don't get the GUI, just a blinking cursor. I know this is a common problem, but a couple of us have looked over this and we aren't seeing where we messed up.
Thanks in advance for any ideas!
