Hi friends,
I have not mentioned one thing in the above post. All that i have completed PXE booting is ISO based installations, that means we need not require to split the iso. We can install them directly from the remote PXE server.

If I have a PXE server setup already with DHCP, TFTP…, I plan to use it for Centos 5 installation.
1. What type of files do I need for the server? For examples, ISO image file of Centos 5 or extracted contents of ISO (Centos 5)?
2. Once I have it ready, how does the client machine able to boot from the PXE server?
Thank you for your help!
