[Kea-users] KEA and pxeboot

[Stephen Berg, Code 7309]

Where can I find documentation on setting up pxebooting to do linux 
installs?  I'm running kea-1.8.0-2 on Rocky Linux 8.5.  I want to be 
able to pxeboot different OS's like centos 7.x, rocky 8.x and future 
releases.  The tftp-server is installed and setup, syslinux packages are 
installed.  I've got just a couple clients defined in dhcp as reserved 
leases and added next-server and filename options for one but when I 
boot the network from that client it never seems to get to the 
pxelinux.0 or the defined kernel in the "pxelinux.cfg/01-macaddress" file.

I figure I'm probably missing some setup in the kea-dhcp4.conf file but 
can't find what the missing parts might be.

My old setup is centos 6, dhcp-4.1.1.  I'd add the next-server and 
filename lines for a particular host reservation then use pxeboot to 
setup the pxelinux.cfg file and that would have kernel parameters to 
boot the installer and read a kickstart file.  Right now I can get the 
new system to boot from the network, it gets an IP from kea but then 
fails to find the tftp file to boot from.
