How can current Ubuntu versions be installed via PXE network boot and an automated installation?

Introduction

Instead of having a small package specific to the task, it's now necessary to use the regular full ISO image. Only the server installer Subiquity can be automated, so it's required to use the server image even for a desktop installation.

The following steps are for the current version 20.10 (Groovy Gorilla). For future versions, replace all occurrences of 20.10 by the version number you want to install.

Prerequisites

Prerequisites on the server machine that is going to serve the PXE files, installer image and autoinstall configuration:

  • A working TFTP server and corresponding DHCP configuration
  • A working web server
  • Having the packages pxelinux, syslinux-efi, syslinux-common installed

Serving the ISO image and autoinstall config

  1. Download the full live server image: wget https://releases.ubuntu.com/20.10/ubuntu-20.10-live-server-amd64.iso
  2. Copy the ISO image to your web server
  3. Create a directory on the web server to hold the autoinstall configuration. Create the files meta-data and user-data in the directory.
  4. Write your autoinstall configuration to the file user-data by using https://ubuntu.com/server/docs/install/autoinstall-reference as a reference

Preparing and serving the PXE environment

  1. Go to the directory your TFTP server serves, by default /srv/tftp

  2. Copy the ISO image downloaded in the previous section to the current directory

  3. Create some directories that we are going to use in the following steps: mkdir -p iso_mount init boot/uefi boot/bios pxelinux.cfg

  4. Mount the image and extract the kernel and initrd:

     mount -o loop ubuntu-20.10-live-server-amd64.iso iso_mount/
 cp -p iso_mount/casper/vmlinuz init/
 cp -p iso_mount/casper/initrd init/
 umount iso_mount

  5. Prepare the PXELINUX files for booting via UEFI as well as via BIOS:

     # UEFI
 cp -p /usr/lib/SYSLINUX.EFI/efi64/syslinux.efi boot/uefi
 cp -p /usr/lib/syslinux/modules/efi64/ldlinux.e64 boot/uefi
 cp -p /usr/lib/syslinux/modules/efi64/libcom32.c32 boot/uefi
 cp -p /usr/lib/syslinux/modules/efi64/libutil.c32 boot/uefi
 cp -p /usr/lib/syslinux/modules/efi64/vesamenu.c32 boot/uefi

 # BIOS
 cp -p /usr/lib/PXELINUX/pxelinux.0 boot/bios
 cp -p /usr/lib/syslinux/modules/bios/ldlinux.c32 boot/bios
 cp -p /usr/lib/syslinux/modules/bios/libcom32.c32 boot/bios
 cp -p /usr/lib/syslinux/modules/bios/libutil.c32 boot/bios
 cp -p /usr/lib/syslinux/modules/bios/vesamenu.c32 boot/bios

  6. Configure your DHCP server to set the boot filename to boot/uefi/syslinux.efi for UEFI clients and boot/bios/pxelinux.0 for BIOS clients

  7. Create a PXELINUX config at pxelinux.cfg/default similar to the following. Replace the URLs in angle brackets by the URLs to your web server: Replace <iso url> by the URL to the ISO image and <autoinstall url> by the URL to the directory containing the autoinstall configuration (including a trailing slash!).

     DEFAULT vesamenu.c32
 PROMPT 0
 NOESCAPE 1

 MENU TITLE PXE System Installation

 LABEL Ubuntu 20.10
   MENU LABEL ubuntu_20.10
   KERNEL ../../init/vmlinuz
   INITRD ../../init/initrd
   APPEND root=/dev/ram0 ramdisk_size=1500000 ip=dhcp url=<iso url> autoinstall ds=nocloud-net;s=<autoinstall url>

  8. Link the PXELINUX config into the boot directories for UEFI and BIOS:

     ln -s ../../pxelinux.cfg boot/uefi/pxelinux.cfg
 ln -s ../../pxelinux.cfg boot/bios/pxelinux.cfg

Conclusion

You should now be able to boot both UEFI and BIOS clients via PXE into the Subiquity installer, which will then run automated according to your autoinstall config.

Desktop installation

If you are installing a desktop system, it's necessary to install the ubuntu-desktop package.

You'll also need to fix the network configuration in the installed system, since Subiquity enables systemd-networkd instead of NetworkManager, which is normally used on desktop systems:

  1. Remove the network configuration created by Subiquity: rm /etc/netplan/00-installer-config.yaml

  2. Create a file /etc/netplan/01-network-manager-all.yaml with the following contents:

     # Let NetworkManager manage all devices on this system
 network:
   version: 2
   renderer: NetworkManager

  3. Run netplan apply or reboot


Well, I could just as well put in my take on this... so here it goes!

Intro

Below is a full PXE guide, from setting up server and all required services, up to first boots. It also includes instructions for both Ubuntu 20.04.1 and 20.10, with automatic install of Ubuntu Server, interactive install of Server, and Live boot of Desktop (like PXE version of "Live CD"). Guide had been modified slightly to include all options in one boot menu with all variations. Both BIOS and UEFI scenarios are explained.

I am using component of Syslinux called "lpxelinux" (first lowercase "L"), which has support to boot kernel and init from HTTP as well. syslinux.efi already has this as well. HTTP enables faster transfers, plus enables us to have a little bit different organization of files, plus some other minor advantages down the line (for larger implementations).

This is full step-by-step guide!

PXE Server - Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS

Install Ubuntu Server as usual, start with minimum installed options, but I usually enable OpenSSH server to enable remote administration. After install make sure to update it fully

sudo su
apt-get update && apt-get upgrade -y

Tools and requirements

We need TFTP server, HTTP(S) server, and DHCP server. You can use other servers if you already have them, but for ease of following we will install everything on our newly installed Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS

I picked most popular packages:

apt-get install tftpd-hpa apache2 isc-dhcp-server

We will also need to fetch syslinux files. Since Marian's guide already showed how to get those from apt packages, I'll go other way, for completeness sake (you can mix and match approaches as you wish). We get files from official kernel.org

mkdir /root/pxe
mkdir /root/pxe/syslinux
cd /root/pxe/syslinux
wget https://mirrors.edge.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/boot/syslinux/syslinux-6.03.tar.gz
tar -xf syslinux-6.03.tar.gz
cd syslinux-6.03/
ll

I used the chance to create a temp dir for us under /root/pxe and syslinux directory underneath it. Feel free to place these files wherever you wish, just make sure to amend commands afterwards.

SYSLINUX - LPXELINUX (files)

Next we copy files that we'll need. Feel free to copy more modules, but these are enough.

TFTPD already has a directory which we will use, under: /var/lib/tftpboot/

Copy the files there, in separate directories (some files have same names but are intended for different architectures)

# files for 64bit uefi
mkdir /var/lib/tftpboot/efi64
cp /root/pxe/syslinux/syslinux-6.03/efi64/efi/syslinux.efi /var/lib/tftpboot/efi64
cp /root/pxe/syslinux/syslinux-6.03/efi64/com32/menu/menu.c32 /var/lib/tftpboot/efi64
cp /root/pxe/syslinux/syslinux-6.03/efi64/com32/menu/vesamenu.c32 /var/lib/tftpboot/efi64
cp /root/pxe/syslinux/syslinux-6.03/efi64/com32/libutil/libutil.c32 /var/lib/tftpboot/efi64
cp /root/pxe/syslinux/syslinux-6.03/efi64/com32/elflink/ldlinux/ldlinux.e64 /var/lib/tftpboot/efi64
cp /root/pxe/syslinux/syslinux-6.03/efi64/com32/lib/libcom32.c32 /var/lib/tftpboot/efi64
cd /var/lib/tftpboot/efi64
ll

# files for 32bit bios
mkdir /var/lib/tftpboot/bios
cp /root/pxe/syslinux/syslinux-6.03/bios/core/lpxelinux.0 /var/lib/tftpboot/bios
cp /root/pxe/syslinux/syslinux-6.03/bios/com32/menu/menu.c32 /var/lib/tftpboot/bios
cp /root/pxe/syslinux/syslinux-6.03/bios/com32/menu/vesamenu.c32 /var/lib/tftpboot/bios
cp /root/pxe/syslinux/syslinux-6.03/bios/com32/libutil/libutil.c32 /var/lib/tftpboot/bios
cp /root/pxe/syslinux/syslinux-6.03/bios/com32/elflink/ldlinux/ldlinux.c32 /var/lib/tftpboot/bios
cp /root/pxe/syslinux/syslinux-6.03/bios/com32/lib/libcom32.c32 /var/lib/tftpboot/bios
cd /var/lib/tftpboot/bios
ll

DHCP server

DHCP server itself should have a static IP. So let's do that (if you haven't done it during install).

Edit the network config (YAML file):

nano /etc/netplan/00-installer-config.yaml

Contents:

# This is the network config written by 'subiquity'
network:
  ethernets:
    eth0:
      addresses: [10.10.2.1/24]
      gateway4: 10.10.2.99
      nameservers:
        addresses: [1.1.1.1, 8.8.8.8]
  version: 2

Apply the config:

netplan apply

Next we need to enter basic config for DHCP server's zones and pools. I'm doing some extra config here to show you that your future PXE clients can be in subnets different from your PXE server. In my case PXE server (with all services) is at 10.10.2.1. I have two subnets connected via virtual router : 10.10.1.0/24 and 10.10.2.0/24

nano /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf

Contents (just an example):

# minimal sample /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf
default-lease-time 600;
max-lease-time 7200;

subnet 10.10.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
 range 10.10.1.110 10.10.1.120;
 option routers 10.10.1.99;
 option domain-name-servers 1.1.1.1, 8.8.8.8;
# option domain-name "mydomain.example";
}

subnet 10.10.2.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
 range 10.10.2.110 10.10.2.120;
 option routers 10.10.2.99;
 option domain-name-servers 1.1.1.1, 8.8.8.8;
# option domain-name "mydomain.example";
}

# pxe client, uefi64
host uefi-client {
  hardware ethernet fa:fa:fa:00:0e:07;
  fixed-address 10.10.1.201;
  next-server 10.10.2.1;
  filename "efi64/syslinux.efi";
}

# pxe client, bios
host bios-client {
  hardware ethernet fa:fa:fa:00:0e:17;
  fixed-address 10.10.2.202;
  next-server 10.10.2.1;
  filename "bios/lpxelinux.0";
}

Note: Please modify the file according to your situation! You have to have correct subnets, gateways, as well as correct MAC address (hardware address) of your clients!

And you will need to set interface where DHCP deamon will listen, use ip a to check which interface that would be for you (I have it at eth0)

nano /etc/default/isc-dhcp-server

Contents:

INTERFACESv4="eth0"
INTERFACESv6=""

Make sure to restart the service:

systemctl restart isc-dhcp-server.service
systemctl status isc-dhcp-server.service

And enable it to autostart on server reboots:

systemctl enable isc-dhcp-server.service

If you have typos or other mistakes like duplicate IPs or client names, deamon will fail. Check logs if status is red.

tail -n 100 /var/log/syslog

OPTIONAL - router settings

If you have different subnets, make sure you add ip helper for DHCP, also often setup as DHCP relay in most routers. Just point it to IP address of your PXE server (if you have services spread on multiple servers, then point it to one that holds DHCP services).

TFTP server

We need to setup basic stuff for TFTP server, but only one option really needs changing/checking - path to your root TFTP directory /var/lib/tftpboot

nano /etc/default/tftpd-hpa

Contents:

# /etc/default/tftpd-hpa

TFTP_USERNAME="tftp"
#TFTP_DIRECTORY="/srv/tftp"
# /var/lib/tftpboot
TFTP_DIRECTORY="/var/lib/tftpboot"
TFTP_ADDRESS=":69"
TFTP_OPTIONS="--secure"

Make sure to restart the service as well.

systemctl restart tftpd-hpa

And enable it to autostart on server reboots:

systemctl enable tftpd-hpa

You can use TFTP client to test the service if you want to be sure all is well.

SYSLINUX / (l)pxelinux configs

We need some configs to boot! At minimum we need one default file for each architecture. We place them in TFTP directory

mkdir /var/lib/tftpboot/efi64/pxelinux.cfg
mkdir /var/lib/tftpboot/bios/pxelinux.cfg
touch /var/lib/tftpboot/efi64/pxelinux.cfg/default
touch /var/lib/tftpboot/bios/pxelinux.cfg/default
nano /var/lib/tftpboot/efi64/pxelinux.cfg/default

Note I am pulling both vmlinuz and initrd from HTTP server. Same server is hosting ISO image and our autoinstall files. We will setup this web server next, no worries.

Since default looks same for both BIOS and UEFI, just copy it (or link it if you wish).

cp /var/lib/tftpboot/efi64/pxelinux.cfg/default /var/lib/tftpboot/bios/pxelinux.cfg/default

If you keep them separate you can change the options on them individually. Menu also accepts linking through include option. But if you want advanced menus, read docs or few more articles.

Web server - HTTP(S)

I will describe simple HTTP setup, but you can expand that to HTTPS later. It would be recommended if your environment isn't closed, and you have passwords set in autoinstall files. For basic lab, we use HTTP.

We need to fetch the ISOs. Since I've put in both server and desktop in the menu, I will repeat this once for each ISO. I know question is about the server, but extras won't hurt you. If you want just server or desktop simply skip the other.

This is for Ubuntu Server LTS 20.04.1

wget https://releases.ubuntu.com/20.04.1/ubuntu-20.04.1-live-server-amd64.iso -O /var/www/html/ubuntu-20.04.1-live-server-amd64.iso

Extract the kernel and initramfs (vmlinuz and initrd) to subfolder of that distro/variation/version. You can have many more on your multi-boot PXE menu.

mount /var/www/html/ubuntu-20.04.1-live-server-amd64.iso /mnt/
mkdir /var/www/html/ubuntu-server-20.04.1
cp /mnt/casper/vmlinuz /var/www/html/ubuntu-server-20.04.1/
cp /mnt/casper/initrd /var/www/html/ubuntu-server-20.04.1/
umount  /mnt

This is for Desktop LTS 20.04.1

wget https://releases.ubuntu.com/20.04.1/ubuntu-20.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso -O /var/www/html/ubuntu-20.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso

And again extract, note I added different name of folder

mount /var/www/html/ubuntu-20.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso /mnt/
mkdir /var/www/html/ubuntu-desktop-20.04.1
cp /mnt/casper/vmlinuz /var/www/html/ubuntu-desktop-20.04.1/
cp /mnt/casper/initrd /var/www/html/ubuntu-desktop-20.04.1/
umount  /mnt

The following is for Ubuntu Server 20.10

wget https://releases.ubuntu.com/20.10/ubuntu-20.10-live-server-amd64.iso -O /var/www/html/ubuntu-20.10-live-server-amd64.iso

Extract the files, again to separate folder

mount /var/www/html/ubuntu-20.10-live-server-amd64.iso /mnt/
mkdir /var/www/html/ubuntu-server-20.10
cp /mnt/casper/vmlinuz /var/www/html/ubuntu-server-20.10/
cp /mnt/casper/initrd /var/www/html/ubuntu-server-20.10/
umount  /mnt

And finally this is for Ubuntu Desktop 20.10

wget https://releases.ubuntu.com/20.10/ubuntu-20.10-desktop-amd64.iso -O /var/www/html/ubuntu-20.10-desktop-amd64.iso

Extract the files again, to separate folder once more

mount /var/www/html/ubuntu-20.10-desktop-amd64.iso /mnt/
mkdir /var/www/html/ubuntu-desktop-20.10
cp /mnt/casper/vmlinuz /var/www/html/ubuntu-desktop-20.10/
cp /mnt/casper/initrd /var/www/html/ubuntu-desktop-20.10/
umount  /mnt

That should be it. Test with your browser to see if you can reach the files in correct locations. We used default Apache directory on Ubuntu to host all files, so no extra steps should be needed.

Autoinstall file for Server 20.04 and 20.10

Ubuntu docs say you can simply install one server, then find a sample file with your selections in /var/log/installer/autoinstall-user-data file.

To test in a lab, you can use that file as your template, but it will require some modifications.

To just have a minimal config you can use code below (again YAML code, beware spacing if doing manual edits):

nano /var/www/html/ubuntu-server-20.04.1/user-data

Contents:

#cloud-config
autoinstall:
  version: 1
  apt:
    geoip: true
    preserve_sources_list: false
    primary:
    - arches: [amd64, i386]
      uri: http://hr.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu
    - arches: [default]
      uri: http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports
  identity: {hostname: pxe-client, password: $6$zN/uHJD1rEXD/ETf$q8CoBt3xXmBT37RslyWcpLT1za4RJR3QEtosggRKN5aZAAf6/mYbFEQO66AIPm965glBXB1DGd0Sf.oKi.Rfx/,
    realname: pxe, username: pxe}
  keyboard: {layout: hr, toggle: null, variant: ''}
  locale: en_US
  network:
    network:
      version: 2
      ethernets:
        eth0:
          dhcp4: no
          dhcp6: no
  ssh:
    allow-pw: true
    install-server: true

Note: This config will setup server with hostname pxe-client, and username and password both being pxe. Server will have no network (DHCP disabled), so it will skip auto-update during install (for quicker testing). And it will have OpenSSH server preinstalled, with password login. Note regional stuff (hr = Croatia, so we have Croatian mirror setup for apt, and Croatian keyboard layout), tweak them for your country. See your sample /var/log/installer/autoinstall-user-data as a template to add your own tweaks.

Ubuntu requires meta-data file as well. It HAS TO be empty. So just create it in same directory where you've put user-data file

touch /var/www/html/ubuntu-server-20.04.1/meta-data

To see more options see official docs: https://ubuntu.com/server/docs/install/autoinstall-reference

For Ubuntu 20.10 everything is the same, just copy the code, or create it in correct path:

nano /var/www/html/ubuntu-server-20.10/user-data
touch /var/www/html/ubuntu-server-20.10/meta-data

Use same user-data sample, they are interchangeable between 20.04 and 20.10. Also note the double network: network: part.. 20.04 had a bug where it requred such setup, while 20.10 doesn't have the bug, but supports this as a backward compatibility feature.

Check your files

I would recommend you to check that you have all files in place for all variations:

ll /var/www/html/ubuntu-server-20.04.1/
ll /var/www/html/ubuntu-desktop-20.04.1/
ll /var/www/html/ubuntu-server-20.10/
ll /var/www/html/ubuntu-desktop-20.10/

Server folders should have 4 files:

initrd
meta-data
user-data
vmlinuz

Desktop folders should have 2 files:

initrd
vmlinuz

If you have trouble booting, check the permissions of files listed above. If you are doing lab, just do unsafe thing and chmod it all with full rw permissions:

chmod -R 777 /var/www/html/*

For production setup proper permissions with just read access where needed.

Testing it all

In my lab environment, as well as when starting new production setup, I test this all in VMs first. I use Hyper-V for testing (I know, kill me, with Microsoft stuff here suddenly :) ). To test UEFI boot you create Generation 2 machine, and for BIOS boot you should use Generation 1 machine. Make sure to add enough RAM to VM to hold the RAMDISK ! So if VM is testing Server with 1,5GB RAM disk, then you need 2GB RAM for VM, and for Desktop we have 3GB RAM disk so best to have 4GB RAM attached to VM. Also, make sure to attach network interfaces to correct networks, as I mentioned before, I keep a virtual router and multiple subnets, as I need to test and proof this all for deployment in quite large and complicated environments.

Anyway, once you have VM - just boot it! If you did everything correctly you should see PXE boot, VM getting IP, then starting the menu. After 30 sec it will boot from disk, but just use arrow keys to select an option. I found UEFI booting way faster in my tests, so I usually tested with UEFI, then tested BIOS VM once UEFI was where I wanted it.

Wrapping it up

Only now will I admit I'm no Linux guru. But I spent a lot of time past month and a half doing PXE boots and setting up different environments for it and with it. This is pure Ubuntu stack in this tutorial. I plan to write one a bit more Microsoft oriented, but also based on SYSLINUX with multi-boot menu, and allowing us to boot (assorted) Linux distros (in addition to Windows). All of this can be made with any DHCP/HTTP/TFTP tools, including Microsoft Windows Server 2019, with couple roles installed on it (DHCP, IIS, WDS). Likewise, you can use any other distro to act as PXE server for your Ubuntu installs. You don't need to use Apache2 either, if you are more comfortable with eg. nginx as your HTTP server.

For the end, I did all my tests with both Ubuntu 20.04 and 20.10. The whole setup is EXACTLY THE SAME for both versions. Just change names of files and ISO downloads. If you just need one of them, just skip the parts for what you don't need.

Happy hunting!

Edit: 2020-11-14 - added everything for Ubuntu 20.10, cleaned some code, and added more meaningful names for folders since we are handling 4 different OS boots now.
