Network boot

This page is a work in progress.

See Diskless system

In this example, the boot server is at 192.168.1.10 and the router is at 192.168.1.1.

1. Obtain source code

2. Tweak build options (see https://ipxe.org/buildcfg)

3. Write a simple script pointing at the boot server

src/embed.ipxe

#!ipxe
 
dhcp
chain http://192.168.1.10/boot.php

add parameters in the URL so a PHP script can use it

4. Compile

make EMBED=embed.ipxe bin/undionly.kpxe
