Hi all,

I recently started playing around to install Debian via PXE.
I successfully managed to install the netinst version following the
documentation available at https://wiki.debian.org/PXEBootInstall.

Now I'd like to understand how to boot any debian ISO.

For instance, suppose that on my PXE server I
havedebian-8.5.0-amd64-CD-1.iso, what boot parameters do I have to pass
to my netboot kernel in order to install it?

More generally, suppose I create my own iso (with build-simple-cdd), how
can I install it via PXE?

many thanks in advance,
Valerio

PS: If useful these are my actual booting parameters

kernel debian-installer/amd64/linux
	append auto=true priority=critical vga=788
initrd=debian-installer/amd64/initrd.gz
preseed/url=tftp://192.168.1.109/preseed/preseed.cfg --- quiet
