(MarkLinimon note: WIP; needs some information from YahooNetinstall)

• set up the BIOS:
  • TBA
• figure out the MAC address
• clone an entry in /usr/local/etc/dhcpd.conf and use that MAC address

• make sure rsw02XX has the the interface's vlan set to portsbuild (e.g.)
• make sure the /usr/local/etc/dhcpd.conf entry for your machine has entries for both fixed-address and option root-path
• boot the machine
• format the drive
• edit drive information into files in (e.g.) /home/linimon/pxeroot/amd64-9/conf/<ipaddress>/etc/:
  • fstab
  • rc.conf
• reboot the machine
• profit!

• if you have not done so already:
  • create a directory for pxebooting, something like /home/linimon/pxeroot/amd64-install-9.0
  • copy over the /home/linimon/pxeroot/amd64-install-9.0/getbootableiso script to it and edit for that directory and release
  • sudo sh -x ./getbootableiso
  • (see BradDavis's writeup for more detail of what getbootableiso does)
• make sure rsw02XX has the the proper interface's vlan set to install
• make sure the /usr/local/etc/dhcpd.conf entry for your machine has entries for neither fixed-address nor option root-path so it will boot from the default install vlan
• reboot the machine
• do the install
• profit!
