Debian Etch boot over iSCSI HOWTO October 25, 2007
I’ve finally managed to write down all the steps needed to setup a Debian Etch system to boot over iSCSI without an iSCSI HBA.
These are the needed elements:
- a debian Etch system, of course
- open-iscsi
- an iSCSI target (I’ve used iSCSI Enterprise Target for Linux)
- gPXE
Instead of writing a lonely howto page on my blog, I’ve chosen to write it into the Etherboot Project Wiki which seems to me the best place for it.
So… I was granted the write permission and I have created this Debian Etch boot over iSCSI HOWTO.
One based on ubuntu gutsy will follow soon.
Of course comments and critics are appreciated.
P.S: things like this are priceless to me:
#etherboot on freenode.net
