74 <h2>Introduction</h2>
76 <p>
77 Boot your operating system from the internet and enjoy a full system
78 working entirely in RAM with speed and stability in mind. The Linux Kernel
79 and the complete SliTaz compressed root filesystem will be loaded into
80 RAM from the Web using PXE and HTTP protocols.
81 </p>
84 <h2 id="guide">Short guide</h2>
85 <p>
86 To boot from the internet you'll need a working DHCP server, DNS server/cache
87 and a default internet route. This is usually the case if you have a router
88 for network connection.
89 </p>
90 <ul>
91 <li>SliTaz Cooking has the boot option <code>web</code>, so you can
92 use boot.slitaz.org from the standard core LiveCD.</li>
93 <li>SliTaz boot ISO: Download
94 <a href="http://mirror.slitaz.org/boot/slitaz-boot.iso">slitaz-boot.iso</a>
95 (<a href="http://mirror.slitaz.org/boot/slitaz-boot.md5">md5</a>)
96 and burn the image to a CD ROM. Boot from the CD ROM device and select
97 iPXE. This ISO image also provides Memtest86 to test system memory.
98 </li>
99 <li>USB media: Use TazUSB to generate bootable USB media. Install
100 the package <code>ipxe</code>, copy /boot/ipxe into the boot
101 directory of the USB media and add an entry to the Syslinux configuration
102 file <code>syslinux.cfg</code>:
103 <pre class="script">
104 label web
105 kernel /boot/ipxe
106 </pre></li>
107 <li>Floppy image: Download
108 <a href="http://mirror.slitaz.org/boot/floppy-grub4dos">floppy-grub4dos</a>
109 (<a href="http://mirror.slitaz.org/boot/floppy-grub4dos.md5">md5</a>)
110 and transfer the image to a blank floppy disk using the command:
111 <code>dd if=floppy-grub4dos of=/dev/fd0</code>. Boot the floppy and select
112 iPXE entry.
113 You can also create a <a href="http://mirror.slitaz.org/boot/ipxe">iPXE</a>
114 only boot floppy for a faster boot process using the command:
115 <code>dd if=ipxe of=/dev/fd0</code>.</li>
116 <li>Network boot: if you can modify your DHCP server configuration, declare
117 the tftp server <i>mirror.slitaz.org</i> and the boot file
118 <i><a href="http://mirror.slitaz.org/boot/ipxe.pxe">ipxe.pxe</a></i>:
119 <ul>
120 <li>for <b>udhcpd</b>
121 <pre>siaddr mirror.slitaz.org
122 boot_file ipxe.pxe</pre></li>
123 <li>for <b>dhcpd</b>
124 <pre>next-server "mirror.slitaz.org"
125 filemane "ipxe.pxe"</pre></li>
126 <li>for <b>dnsmasq</b>
127 <pre>dhcp-boot=ipxe.pxe,mirror.slitaz.org</pre></li>
128 </ul>
129 </li>
130 <li>Starting <a href="http://mirror.slitaz.org/boot/ipxe">iPXE</a> from
131 DOS: renamed to ipxe.exe, it can be launched under DOS (Windows is not
132 supported).
133 </li>
134 </ul>
137 <h3>Boot time</h3>
139 <p>
140 The boot time largely depends on your network connection. With a 1 Mb/s
141 connection in France, it takes 5 min. If you want, you can report the
142 boot time on the Mailing list or the Forum.
