         Advanced users may wish to install NixOS using an existing PXE or

     

       10

         iPXE setup.

         These instructions assume that you have an existing PXE or iPXE

     

       14
       +
         infrastructure and simply want to add the NixOS installer as another

     

       15
       +
         option. To build the necessary files from a recent version of

     

       16
       +
         nixpkgs, you can run:

     

       17

       +

         This will create a <literal>result</literal> directory containing: *

     

       23
       +
         <literal>bzImage</literal> – the Linux kernel *

     

       24

       25

         If you’re using plain PXE, configure your boot loader to use the

     

       31
       +
         <literal>bzImage</literal> and <literal>initrd</literal> files and

     

       32
       +
         have it provide the same kernel command line arguments found in

         <literal>netboot.ipxe</literal>.

       <para>

         If you’re using iPXE, depending on how your HTTP/FTP/etc. server is

     

       37
       +
         configured you may be able to use <literal>netboot.ipxe</literal>

     

       38
       +
         unmodified, or you may need to update the paths to the files to

     

       39

         match your server’s directory layout

         In the future we may begin making these files available as build

     

       43

         products from hydra at which point we will update this documentation

     

       44

         with instructions on how to obtain them either for placing on a

     

       45
