Howto Install CentOS PXE server
This tutorial shows how to set up a PXE (short for preboot execution environment). A PXE install server allows your client computers to boot and install a Linux distribution over the network, without the need of burning Linux iso images onto a CD/DVD, boot floppy images, etc. This is handy if your client computers don't have CD or floppy drives, or if you want to set up multiple computers at the same time (e.g. in a large enterprise), or simply because you want to save the money for the CDs/DVDs.
To install network PXE server, you need following components:
1. DHCP Server
2. TFTP Server
3. NFS/FTP/HTTPD server (to store installing files)
Step1 – Install dhcp server
[root@server1 ~]# yum install dhcp
