New method simplifies PXE server setup using iVentoy for easier OS installations

xda-developers.com

A new method for setting up a PXE server using iVentoy allows users to boot operating systems over a local network without needing USB drives. This is especially useful for those frequently trying new Linux distributions. To set up the PXE server, users can download iVentoy for Windows or Linux, extract the files, and place desired ISO images in the designated folder. After running the software, users can access a web interface to manage the server. To connect a test machine, users must adjust BIOS settings to prioritize network booting. This process includes enabling specific options for network support. The free version of iVentoy supports up to twenty clients but does not work with ARM64 systems.
