Install multiple Win7 networks with PXE

PXE works in the network mode of Client/Server, and supports workstations to download images from remote servers through the network, and thus supports the startup process of the operating system from the network. During the startup process, the terminal requires the server to assign an IP address, and then Use the TFTP or MTFTP protocol to download a boot package to the local machine's memory and execute it. This startup software package completes the terminal basic software settings, thereby booting the terminal operating system pre-installed in the server. Today, I will explain how to use PXE to install Windows 7 network on multiple computers, which is convenient and fast, even if the CD is not needed. The specific steps are as follows:

PXE starts to install Windows 7 principle

First, talk about PXE boot. PXE (preboot execute environment) is a boot technology developed by Intel Corporation. It works in the network mode of Client/Server and supports workstations to download image files from remote servers through the network, and thus supports the startup process of the operating system from the network.

At present, the computer's network card almost supports PXE booting. Generally, there is a similar "PXE boot" in the BIOS boot settings, which means that PXE boot is supported. We only need to configure the boot parameters and the genuine Windows 7 installation shared image on the server (there are ways to make it later). After the client starts, it can realize the network installation of Windows 7 through network mapping (Figure 1).

two small software to build the network server

Download & ldquo; depth remote boot manager & rdquo; and & ldquo; little strong PE kit PXE version & rdquo; two small software. The Deep Remote Boot Manager is deployed on the server side to remotely boot the client computer and assign IP, while transferring the required boot files. The Xiaoqiang PE Toolbox PXE version is used for the operating environment after the network startup (WinPE). It has been integrated with Ghost32 and automatically maps the shared resources of the server after startup.

Follow the prompts to install "Little Xiaoqiang PE Toolbox PXE Edition" to ""C:\\ZJQPXE”, after installation is complete, close the "WinPE PXE Special Edition Server Settings" window, use it yourself" Deep Remote Boot Manager & rdquo; configuration.

Unzip the Deep Remote Boot Manager to "C:\\ ZJQPXE”, run“C:\\ ZJQPXE\ etbootM.exe”, click “Configure →Option Settings” In the "Startup Configuration" option, the working directory selects "C:\\ZJQPXE”, the boot file selects “pxelinux.0” (Figure 2). At this point, the web server is set up.

build complete server, then we will make GHO file, and then start the client runs & ldquo; Ghost32 & rdquo; fast recovery Just fine.
