Comment 1 Steve Snodgrass 2007-04-19 21:37:25 UTC
I just ran into this today as well.  This package is referenced in the RHEL5
documentation here:

http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/enterprise/RHEL-5-manual/Installation_Guide-en-US/s1-netboot-pxe-config.html

If this package no longer exists, what's the recommended way to set up a PXE
boot server now?

Comment 3 Kinshuk Tripathi 2007-10-04 10:17:11 UTC
Whether this going to be fixed in any other updates of RHEL5.0

Comment 4 RHEL Program Management 2007-10-16 04:01:53 UTC
This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion in a Red
Hat Enterprise Linux maintenance release.  Product Management has requested
further review of this request by Red Hat Engineering, for potential
inclusion in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux Update release for currently deployed
products.  This request is not yet committed for inclusion in an Update
release.

Comment 7 John Schubert 2008-01-02 20:32:17 UTC
This is STILL listed as the package to install to get the pxeos command in the
5.1 documentation. Is the documentation wrong or is this package missing?

Comment 8 Radek Brich 2008-01-14 17:36:01 UTC
System-config-netboot package should be included in next update, RHEL 5.2. At
this time, you can try current Fedora-devel package (0.1.45-1.fc9), which should
work with RHEL5 and which will be the base for RHEL5 package.

Comment 12 Jan Bednar 2008-02-28 15:28:12 UTC
I have created diskless enviroment using fedora system-config-netboot (0.1.45-
1.fc9).
Creation was OK, but when booting the machine following error has appeared:
/bin/bash: error while loading shared libraries: libc.so.6: cannot open shared 
object file: No such file or directory
Kernel panic - not syncing: Attemped to kill init!

Please move this report if duplicant or if openened for wrong package.
