1. Install Apache.
2. Create an images.conf file and a kernels.conf file and place them in
the /etc/httpd/conf.d directory. This sets up aliases for and tells
apache where to find them:
/images — http://10.252.252.1/images/
/kernels — http://10.252.252.1/kernels/
The following is an example of the images.conf file
Alias /images /vault/images
<Directory "/vault/images">
AllowOverride All
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
The following is an example of the kernels.conf file
Alias /kernels /boot
<Directory "/boot">
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
3. Make a uniboot directory:
mkdir -p /vault/images/uniboot
4. Create a initrd.img file
