Lets define some key terms used on this and following documents. BIOS The BIOS Basic InputOutput System is a PC pre OS environment, a type of firmware mainly used to initialize, test the system hardware components, and to load a boot manager or an operating system boot loader from a mass memory or network device. EFIUEFI The EFI Extensible Firmware Interface initially introduced by Intel in 1. UEFI Unified Extensible Firmware Interface. It is designed as a successor to BIOS, aiming to address its technical shortcomings. In this document we use the terms EFI and UEFI as synonyms. PXE The Pre boot e. Xecution Environment PXE, pronounced pixie was introduced by Intel as part of the Wired for Management framework. It is described in the specification v. Adobe Premiere Pro Keygen Downloads. Intel and Systemsoft on September 2. PXE is an environment to boot computers from a server using a network device independently of available mass storage devices or installed operating systems. It relies mainly on DHCP and TFTP services and it is implemented either as a Network Interface Card NIC BIOS extension or today in modern devices as part of their UEFI firmware. In this document we use the terms PXE boot and Network boot as synonyms. NBP A Network Boot Program or Network Bootstrap Program NBP is the first file downloaded and executed as part of the Pre Boot Execution Environment PXE boot process. In multi boot PXE the NBP is a Boot Manager BM able to display a menu of the available booting options. RIS Back in the days of Windows 2. Microsofts net install attempts were carried out by the Remote Installation Services RIS. After a couple of updates RIS ended up net installing Windows 2. Windows XP, and Windows Server 2. It can be considered PXE based with some MS custom extensions. WDS The Windows Deployment Service WDS is the updated and redesigned version of RIS. It is able to perform network installs of Windows Vista and up. It can also install the old RIS OSs when their images are conveniently assembled. BINL. The Boot Information Negotiation Layer BINL service is a key component of RIS and WDS. It includes certain preparation processes and a network protocol that could be somehow considered a Microsoft crafted DHCP extension. BINL Serva BINL extension able to process Non Windows systems. Serva documentation refers to it just as BINL. WID A Windows Install Distribution WID is the whole set of files and its directory structure as it is found within any Microsoft OS install CD, DVD, or ISO file. WIA A Serva Windows Installation Asset or just Windows Asset WIA is either a WID, or a stand alone Windows PE bootable image, successfully processed by Serva BINL. A WIA can be offered for network bootinstall by Servas PXEBINL net services. NWA A Serva Non Windows Asset NWA is any Non Windows based bootableinstallable distribution successfully processed by Serva BINL. A NWA can be offered for network bootinstall by Servas PXEBINL net services. Stage. 3. 1 Hardware lay out. PC running Serva. Serva is able to run on anything from Windows 2. Windows 1. 0. b Net booting target PCs PXE clients installing over the net anyone of the available versions of MS Windows. Fig 1 Hardware Lay out. Notes The PXE standard requires a wired network connection for Target PCs. Serva PC can either use a wired or wireless network connection Notebooks, Netbooks, NUCs, etc. Serva and Gigabit connectivity even on modest hardware offers the fastest way available today for installing any Microsoft OS. PXE Client UEFIBIOS set up. When a PC boots up its basic inputoutput system firmware BIOS turns the PC hardware into a functioning system able to boot an OS. PC makers have increasingly been replacing BIOS with the newer Unified Extensible Firmware Interface UEFI. Theres a UEFIBIOS parameter called boot option priority list which dictates the order in which the PC will attempt to boot from its ready to boot devices. They could be local SATAATASCSI HDDs, USB HDDs, CDDVD drives, or Network Cards. In the last case the PC firmware downloads to RAM and runs a Network Bootstrap Program NBP starting a bootinstall process directly from the network. PCs trying to perform a network bootinstall must set their boot option priority list headed by the network card device that connects to the booting network. Note The NBP file is the 1st piece of network retrieved code that takes control right after the PXE clients boots up. In Servas PXEBINL case the NBP is a Boot Manager BM which displays a menu of the available bootinstall options. Virtual machines implement emulated UEFIBIOS environments where the boot option priority list can also be defined. Fig 2 Boot option priority list configured for Network Boot on UEFI and BIOS PCs Most UEFI systems include a Legacy Mode also known as Compatibility Support Module CSM Mode which can alternatively emulate the old BIOS environment. Serva v. 2. X BM pxeserva. BIOS systems or UEFI systems running in Legacy Mode. Serva v. 3. X BMs pxeserva. UEFI systems not requiring Legacy Mode. Warning. Please be sure that the PCs you want to PXE bootinstall targets have been configured with the appropriate NIC device at the top of their boot option priority list. When a network install is finished, and before the first boot of the newly installed OS takes place, remember changing back the boot option priority list by setting the targets HDD device as the first booting option.
