# Installation
|
|
|
|
## Network Installation
|
|
|
|
The machine you want to install needs to be registered in `sysdb`. To be on bleading edge, you might select the `rhel8_preprod` Puppet environment:
|
|
```
|
|
FQDN=...
|
|
bob node set-attr $FQDN puppet_env=rhel8_preprod
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Optional you can set `netboot` and RHEL 8.6 installer but that can also be selected manually in be boot menu:
|
|
```
|
|
bob node netboot $FQDN
|
|
bob node set-attr $FQDN ipxe_installer=rhel86install
|
|
```
|
|
### Installation with UEFI
|
|
Start the machine and select network boot (if not already the default), then you get following menu:
|
|
|
|
|
|
There select "Install Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.6"
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Installation with Legacy BIOS
|
|
Start the machine and select network boot (if not already the default), then you get following menu:
|
|
|
|
|
|
There select "Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 Network Install Menu" to get into the iPXE menu, where you can do also a lot of other stuff.
|
|
|
|
(I plan to get rid of above menu as it also breaks automatic installation by `sysdb` configuration).
|
|
|
|
The iPXE menu is then generated according to `sysdb` and its default depends on the configuration, there, but you may override it manualy:
