Diskless Installation
=====================
#. Prepare dependency packages in the pkglist
#. Prepare dependency packages in the pkglist
In order for the Mellanox installation script to execute successfully, certain dependency packages are required to be installed on the compute node. xCAT provides sample package list files to help resolve these dependencies. The samples are located at ``/opt/xcat/share/xcat/ib/netboot/<os>/``.

The Mellanox OFED ISO is built against a series of specific kernel version. If the version of the linux kernel being used does not match any of the pre-built kernels, pass ``--add-kernel-support --without-32bit --without-fw-update --force`` to the Mellanox installation script to build the kernel modules based on the kernel you are using.
