I did see yours, but I prefer to keep it self contained and not require creating a profile from the web and worry about matching names, etc.  As I’ve modified the wiki, it’s just:

make a directory

copy 3 files to the directory

add some lines to /etc/cobbler/pxe/pxedefault.template

cobbler sync

 

Also,

It would be nice if there was a variable available in the pxedefault.template that is the IP address of the cobbler server.

Not sure if you saw my post, since we are top posting here on this thread. But I think its better to do this from Cobbler Web.

 

 

1. Add a Distro - make sure the distro names matches the name of the folder created under /tftpboot/images. If not cobbler will create a new folder matching the distro name specified. Update the field for kernel, initrd and kernel options.

 

2. Create a profile and enable PXE menu

 

3. Sync

 

That's it.

That’s exactly what I was looking for.  I’ve updated https://fedorahosted.org/cobbler/wiki/ClonezillaIntegration

I changed it to use tftp for the squashfs instead of httpd so everything is kept in one place.  I used /tftpboot/profiles/clonezilla instead of /tftpboot/images/clonezilla to stay out of cobbler’s way.

maybe /etc/cobbler/pxe/pxedefault.template ?

So, the next step in clonezilla integration is getting "cobbler sync"
not to blow away the update.  I can move things around so that I'm not
dropping files in the cobbler directory, but how can I add something to
/tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/default and have it stick?  Is there a template
or some other way to manually add grub/pxe options?
