Network Installing Ubuntu Using a Windows box
This document describes how to install ubuntu through your network without having to use a linux box as a TFTP and DHCP server. This is a very easy method for a linux newb like me.
My scenario
I want to install ubuntu linux onto a computer that has no working CD or Floppy drives. This computer has a PXE booting capable BIOS.
If you have a floppy drive, you can make a floppy that will allow you to PXE boot but that article is somewhere else on this wiki.
What you will need
- A network with a windows computer
- A a network gateway to the internet (Cable/DSL Router)
- Tftpd32.exe (The windows TFTP/DHCP server program)
- The Ubuntu Netboot Image
Download Tftpd32 [http://tftpd32.jounin.net/ From The Makers Website] [http://www.cameronbergh.com/tftpd32.zip From My Mirror]
Here are some links to ubuntu netboot images
[http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/hoary/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/netboot.tar.gz Hoary i386]
[http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/hoary/main/installer-amd64/current/images/netboot/netboot.tar.gz Hoary amd64]
This is how we do it
1. On the windows box, make a folder called "CameronRules"
2. Place Tftpd32.exe in that folder
3.
