Non-PXE Boot Installation
When the setup script is run with the “-t” option, it generates a nonpxe.bfb file at the directory where the script is run. The directory contains the install
kernel and rootfs which are usually loaded by UEFI during the initial PXE boot stage. Thus, if pushing this file, the host TFTP server no longer needs to be
used and UEFI would automatically load the install kernel and rootfs from the boot FIFO. Together with the “-k” kickstart option, the host can be
configured to initiate non-PXE boot and automatic CentOS installation, as long as the host HTTP and DHCP servers are working. To kick off the installation
process, run the following command on the host:
cat nonpxe.bfb > /dev/rshim0/boot; sleep 2; systemctl restart dhcpd
