Guide on how to setup PXE boot using a QNAP NAS The described method will only work on BIOS boot, so you must switch your computer's boot method from UEFI to BIOS (if applicable) www.plop.at/en...
FINALY 😁 an useful info 😆 I was also asking how you been able to set up PXE boot using a QNAP NAS 😁 my question now would be is it a same procedure for setting up a WIN10 or it isn't? I would like to do it like that for WIN10! Can you clarify or show procedure for WIN10? Thank you!
Well, this can be done with Windows 10 and I would rather use netbootxyz for booting that up. I have a working solution for this as well, just I am lazy to create a video about it, but I will have to find some motivation on doing that demo as well.
Well, it took me almost a month before I could get back to it, but thank you very much for posting this video. I just got it working. You also warned that the computer must be the legacy BIOS mode to work, and that was where I was stuck. I couldn't figure out how to switch my new ASRock mini PC to the legacy mode. Then I didn't get a chance to look at it again until this weekend, when it occurred to me that I could try one of my other computers, and it worked! Thanks again. I know very little about UEFI, so I have no idea why this method requires the legacy BIOS mode. Is it because it's configured that way, and easily switched, or is something missing that UEFI needs? I suspect it's a security key or something that UEFI needs, but I'm not very experienced with UEFI.
UEFI would need another file, else then pxelinux.0 . Just have a look at netboot.xyz/ as it has many more exciting things to explore through pxe boot. You can use your NAS for this as well, same concept, only it boots also with UEFI and has a variety of tools to chose from, then these boot images are downloaded from the internet. I was mentioning this at the end of the video, but I am just way to lazy to do a video about it.
