I have a working PXE server with many versions of Ubuntu, including 12.04, 13.04, Desktop, Server, etc.
Today, I tried to add 12.04.3 Desktop.
As usual, I copied /casper/initrd.lz and /casper/vmlinuz.efi to my TFTP server. I then copied the contents of the ISO to my nfs server.
As I start booting, it gets to the section where it's trying to mount the nfsroot to /cdrom, and it thows an error saying "Protocol not supported".
Does that mean that the kernel was complied without NFS support?
I haven't done a pxe boot for any of the other versions of 12.04 since the original release - I'll try and figure out where this feature was removed.
