# nilrt-net-boot: NI Linux RT Network Boot Tools Network booting is the process of booting a computer system from a network rather than local disk/flash media. The system's kernel and file systems are retrieved over the network by firmware/BIOS instead of accessing those files from local storage. In many cases, storage devices can be completely removed from these systems to reduce cost. These schemes are typically employed to centralize software and system configuration to reduce maintenance overhead. Preboot Execution Environment (PXE) is a common protocol to implement network boot. It's supported on some NI controllers like PXIe-8840. The tutorial below demonstrates PXE network booting an NI Linux RT OS with user installed software (E.g. LabVIEW RT built app) on PXI. Written by Haris Okanovic to demonstrate network boot capabilities of NI Linux RT. Use at your own risk.

Format, install software, and otherwise configure a real (hardware) controller using MAX, SD, LabVIEW, and/or other tools. This will serve as a template system to take an image. 2. Reboot to safemode 3. Copy the enclosed nilrt-make-netboot-image.sh to admin's home directory via ssh/sftp. 4. Run `nilrt-make-netboot-image.sh -i /mnt/userfs -o /path/to/img.d` as admin to take an image. Substitute `/path/to/img.d` with any secondary storage device that's big enough to store the image. E.g. This could be a USB mass storage device or a network share. 5. Copy `img.d` into the enclosed `tftpboot` directory on your desktop. This directory contains other files needed for PXE boot. The layout is documented below for reference. ## TFTP Root Directory Layout The `tftpboot` directory should look like this after `img.d` is copied: ``` tftpboot/ img.d/ bzImage - Linux kernel image init - gzipped cpio ramdisk of runmode filesystem SHA256SUM - checksums of aforementioned files pxelinux.cfg/ default - PXE configuration file tuned for NI Linux RT pxelinux.0 - x86_64 Syslinux PXE boot loader (binary) ldlinux.c32 - x86_64 Syslinux PXE boot loader (binary) ``` NOTE: You can compile your own Syslinux PXE boot loader if desired. Syslinux PXE Documentation: https://wiki.syslinux.org/wiki/index.php?title=PXELINUX Syslinux Source: https://mirrors.edge.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/boot/syslinux/ ## PXE Image Hosting Example NOTE: This simple example uses dnsmasq to provide DHCP and TFTP services on an isolated network, directly connected to hardware we're booting. This configuration is intended only to demonstrate PXE booting capabilities in the simplest environment possible. Please take care when adapting this example for your network. Hosting a second DHCP service may create problems for other users/devices on your network! 1. Connect a PXE capable NI controller (E.g. PXIe-8840) to an unused Ethernet adapter on your desktop. We'll call that adapter "demoEth". You can connect a USB Ethernet adapter if you don't have a second one to work with. 2. Run `sudo ifconfig demoEth 192.168.92.1/24` to give demoEth a static address on the new network. You can change the `192.168.92.X` subnet if it's already in use. Be sure to update dnsmasq.conf accordingly. 3. Run `dnsmasq --no-daemon --conf-file=dnsmasq.conf --tftp-root="$PWD/tftpboot" --interface=demoEth` to launch DHCP and TFTP services. 4. Boot the NI controller to BIOS by repeatedly pressing DEL after powering on. 5. Go to the "Boot" tab. Enable the "PXE Network Boot" option. Disable all "Boot Option ##"'s, except the network adapter. 6. Save and reboot in BIOS: Go to "Save & Exit" tab then click on "Save Changes and Reset" option. 7. You should see the PXE boot agent run, download several files via TFTP, and boot into NI Linux RT. It will retry indefinitely if DHCP and TFTP are not configured correctly and you did not specify a fallback boot device in BIOS.
