iPXE 引导 ubuntu 并使用 preseed 自动安装系统

WHY

厂里有项目要用 ubuntu 系统,折腾一下 ubuntu 的 preseed 自动装机

HOW

iPXE boot

挂载 ISO 提供 PXE 所需内核引导文件:

mount /home/iso/ubuntu-16.04.6-server-amd64.iso /var/www/html/iso/ubuntu

添加 ubuntu 对应的 iPXE 引导菜单:

set iso_u http://10.20.30.1/iso/ubuntu

:ubuntu
initrd ${iso_u}/install/netboot/ubuntu-installer/amd64/initrd.gz ||
kernel ${iso_u}/install/netboot/ubuntu-installer/amd64/linux BOOTIF=01-${net0/mac:hexhyp} interface=auto auto=true priority=critical url=http://${next-server}/ubuntu.cfg DEBCONF_DEBUG=5 --- net.ifnames=0 ipv6.disable=1 ||
内核参数作用
interface=auto跳过手动选择引导网卡界面
auto=true priority=critical url=...根据 url= 指定的 preseed 配置自动安装系统
DEBCONF_DEBUG=5控制台 console Alt + F4 输出更详细日志
--- net.ifnames=0 ipv6.disable=1--- 之后的参数,保留追加到 grub 引导参数

preseed

preseed 文件要实现真正自动化,需要不少 hack 和 CentOS 的 kickstart 相比,语法和文档差太多。。。

network

配置静态网络在加载好 LiveOS 环境 DHCP 完成后,需要 重启网络 重新加载 preseed 配置:

d-i preseed/early_command string kill-all-dhcp; netcfg

Appendix B. Automating the installation using preseeding B.4. Contents of the preconfiguration file

Although preseeding the network configuration is normally NOT possible when using network preseeding (using “preseed/url”), you can use the following hack to work around that, for example if you’d like to set a static address for the network interface. The hack is to **force the network configuration to run again after the preconfiguration file has been loaded by creating a “preseed/run” script containing the following commands: kill-all-dhcp; netcfg

而且 iPXE 内核引导参数需要加上 priority=critical 不然还会弹框手动确认

repo

默认安装会下载 公网 的 security 源,超时时间很长,安装界面卡很久,像 死机 一般:

img_ubuntu_preseed_download_security_repo_timeout

置空 security 源:

d-i apt-setup/security_host string
d-i apt-setup/security_path string

postfix

安装额外软件包引入 postfix 依赖,配置 postfix 界面会中断 preseed 自动安装:

img_ubuntu_preseed_config_postfix

再补一刀:

postfix postfix/main_mailer_type select No configuration

late_command

late_command 命令如果包含 echo ... > redirect_file 重定向 操作,直接在 in-target 使用无效

需要用 sh -c 'command' 包装一下:

d-i preseed/late_command string \
in-target sh -c 'mkdir -pv --mode=0700 /root/.ssh'; \
test -d /target/root/.ssh || { mkdir -pv /target/root/.ssh; chmod -v 700 /target/root/.ssh; } && ls -la /target/root|grep ssh; \
in-target sh -c 'echo -e "ssh-rsa AAAAB..." > /root/.ssh/authorized_keys && chmod -v 0600 /root/.ssh/authorized_keys'; \

再就是难用的分区配置。。。

系统安装完后,相关日志保存在 /var/log/installer 目录

example preseed config

最后汇总的 preseed 配置如下:

d-i debian-installer/locale string en_US

d-i console-setup/ask_detect boolean false
d-i keyboard-configuration/xkb-keymap select us
d-i keyboard-configuration/layoutcode string us

d-i clock-setup/utc boolean false
