Enabling imaging of NAC 5.0 on a NAC SiS server

This article applies to:

• NAC 5.0 and above

Question:

• How can I enable imaging of NAC 5.0 on a NAC SiS server?

Procedure:

1. Follow the normal procedure to add a NAC 5.0 image to the InstallationImages directory
2. Start the SiS server
3. Log in as root
4. At the configuration wizard window, press ctrl+c. This should give you a login prompt.
   • If after pressing ctrl+c you do not see a login prompt, or nothing is showing on the screen when you type, do the following: press Enter, type reset and press Enter
5. Change directory:
   

   # cd /mnt/hgfs/InstallationImages/

6. You can list directories using ls

   [root@localhost InstallationImages]# ls
   HDIMAGE.template               install-1307161306-25227-v140  install-1504040804-25245-v140.tar.gz  install-5.0.0-94  system.cnf.tmplate  vmlinuz-2.6.13.41
   install-1108041430-25156-v140  install-1504040804-25245-v140  install-4200000-25227-v111            system.cnf        systems 

7. Change to the directory containing your image:

   # cd install-5.0.0-94 

8. Copy two files to the right directory:

   # cp initramfs-3.18.17-nac02.tos2_4.nac.img /tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/
   # cp vmlinuz-3.18.17-nac02.tos2_4.nac /tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/

9. Restart the server

    # reboot

This will allow you to use 5.0 images during your SiS process. (Use the NACSIS-4.1.2 SIS image for Newer)
