# Adding a new image to the base pxe boot menu
The example described below is adding a new fedora image, as this will happen more frequently than adding a CC image - though the process will remain largely the same
1. Ensure that the distribution (fedora for example) is mirrored. You may need to update /mnt/data2/bin/new-lxsoft-sync-fedora (refer to [Architecture](../../distributions/architecture))
2. Ensure that the rsync process for your distribtion is complete (check [http://linuxsoft.cern.ch/fedora/linux/releases/](http://linuxsoft.cern.ch/fedora/linux/releases/))
3. Add a new image to AIMS2 ```aims2 addimg --name FEDORA30_X86_64 --arch x86_64 --vmlinuz /path/to/vmlinuz --initrd /path/to/initrd.img --description '[UNSUPPORTED] FEDORA 30 FOR X86_64 ARCH'```
4. Update the [aims2-loaders](https://gitlab.cern.ch/linuxsupport/aims2-loaders) repo with content similar to [this change](https://gitlab.cern.ch/linuxsupport/aims2-loaders/merge_requests/5)
5. Build the rpm via koji
6. Manually update the RPM on the AIMS servers (which can be found from ```ai-pdb hostgroup aims --plain```)
7. Test by booting a VM in the 'aims testing' OpenStack project which is configured to boot from the network instead of the disk.
