Hello,<br><br>I'm using PXE and NFS in order to boot a number of nodes centrally from a server and get them to mount a common Voyage filesystem (located on the server) respectively.<br><br>I want to rename the Ethernet interfaces, but I need to do that before the root filesystem is mounted on the nodes (as NFS-mounting prevents me from using udev to rename the already up and running interfaces).<br>
<br>I came across the following webpage:<br><br><a href="http://www.science.uva.nl/research/air/wiki/LogicalInterfaceNames">http://www.science.uva.nl/research/air/wiki/LogicalInterfaceNames</a><br><br>where an approach based on GRUB or LILO boot configurations is described in the last section.<br>
<br>I'm wondering if i can do something similar with PXE (that is, modify the PXELINUX configuration file to rename PXE client interfaces based on IRQ or memory address values before the root filesystem is mounted). Is that possible and if so, what's the appropriate syntax to use?<br>
<br><br>Thank you in advance,<br>Dimitris<br><br><br>
