2. Once the OVH install has finished log into the box via SSH using the login details they will have emailed to you.
3. Issue these commands in SSH:
mkdir /newsystem
cd /newsystem
wget http://ftp.hosteurope.de/mirror/centos.org/5/os/i386/images/pxeboot/initrd.img
wget http://ftp.hosteurope.de/mirror/centos.org/5/os/i386/images/pxeboot/vmlinuz
cp vmlinuz /boot/vmlinuz.cent.pxe
cp initrd.img /boot/initrd.img.cent.pxe
4. If you are NOT running grub (All OVH bixes use LILO, not grub), you will need to install it:
yum install grub
5. You will now need to edit the grub ‘menu.lst’ file. As you were not already using grub the file will be empty.
nano -w /boot/grub/menu.lst
In that file paste the following:
default 0
timeout 30
title Centos Install (PXE)
root (hd0,0)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz.cent.pxe vnc vncpassword=[B]YOURPSW[/B] headless ip=[B]YOURIP[/B] netmask=255.255.255.0 gateway=[B]GATEWAYIP[/B] dns=208.67.222.222 ksdevice=eth0 method=http://ftp.hosteurope.de/mirror/centos.org/5/os/i386/ lang=en_US keymap=us
initrd /boot/initrd.img.cent.pxe
* YOURPSW = a password you want to use for VNC access
* YOURIP = The ip address of the server
* GATEWAYIP = The gateway address for your server. This is normally the same as your server IP but replace the last .xxx with .254
Hint: you can also type the following to get the gateway IP:
route -n | grep UG
Once you are finished editing the menu.lst file, press CTRL+X to quit (follow the prompts to save your work!)
6. If you were not previously using grub, do the following:
grub-install /dev/sda
grub-install --recheck /dev/sda
Note, it seems that all Kimsufi servers use ‘sda’.
7. Reboot your server:
shutdown -r now
8. As soon as your box is responding to pings, fire up your favourite VNC viewer (i like UltraVNC) and connect to:
YOURIP:1
Use the password you set as YOURPSW
You will now be presented with the CentOS install screen – go ahead and install a base CentOS but make sure you use the standard disk layout.
