Research for Software Development Using PXE and iSCSI
Budget: $30 – $250 USD
We are looking to hire a freelancer to conduct comprehensive research and create a detailed report on building software that utilizes PXE and iSCSI technologies. The software will include the following components:
Server and Client Installation:
The server will create a pre-boot environment with a TFTP server.
The server will share disks with the client and store image VHD files.
The client, being a diskless PC, will boot from the iSCSI target using the VHD file and a writeback disk to cache the VHD file.
Booting Process:
The software must support both legacy BIOS and UEFI boot modes.
Research is needed on the PXE boot files required for both modes.
Guidance on building a custom pre-boot environment with specific configurations.
Secure Boot and Certificates:
Research on booting with Secure Boot UEFI.
Recommendations on the best places to purchase the necessary certificates to be inserted into the BIOS.
If you have expertise in these areas and can provide a thorough and well-documented report, we would love to hear from you. Please include your relevant experience and any previous work related to PXE, iSCSI, TFTP servers, and secure boot environments in your application.
