[Maas-devel] Modify the PXE config in MAAS

[Sébastien Han]

Hi guys!

I'm using MAAS, during the commissioning step, I have a lot of errors on
the screen:

timeout: killing /sbin/modprobe -bv pci


I investigated a little and apparently it's an acpi issue. So I tried to
change and add a parameter to this file
/var/lib/tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/default.

I added those options in the default

APPEND noacpi noapm pci=noacpi lba acpi=off apm=off


But each time I restart the maas-pserv run the commissioning procedure this
file is re-regenerated.

How to overcome this?

Thanks!

EDIT1: I saw that in the cobbler logs

Thu May 3 15:27:56 2012 - INFO | generating GPXE/PXE configuration files
> Thu May 3 15:27:56 2012 - WARNING | warning: kernel option length exceeds
> 255
> Thu May 3 15:27:56 2012 - INFO | generating:
> /var/lib/tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/01-00-1d-09-f0-4b-c2


But generating configuration from which default file? There is so many
files in /etc/cobbler/pxe

Cheers!
