You can download the source file from: http://www.peach.ne.jp/archives/isboot/isboot-0.2.5.tar.gz Also, you can download a demo version of 9.1-BETA1. http://www.peach.ne.jp/archives/isboot/demo/FreeBSD-9.1-BETA1-amd64-memstick-isboot-0.2.5.img This demo version is added isboot.txz which includes isboot.ko and loader.conf and a syscons patched kernel for DN2800MT. You can use it as istgt's LUN extent like this: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- [LogicalUnit2800] TargetName "iqn.2007-09.jp.ne.peach:aria:dn2800mt-boot" Mapping PortalGroup4 InitiatorGroup2800 UnitType Disk QueueDepth 32 LUN0 Storage /tank/iscsi/istgt-DN2800MT.vdi Auto LUN1 Storage /tank/iscsi/FreeBSD-9.1-BETA1-amd64-memstick-isboot-0.2.5.img Auto ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Then, boot FreeBSD installer from LUN1 and install FreeBSD by normal way to LUN0. After installation, you have an iSCSI based diskless machine. I have tested it with iPXE(USB boot) and Intel Desktop Board DN2800MT without using SATA ports. For example, booting LUN1 by iPXE(just use :::1:): sanboot iscsi:172.18.0.26:::1:iqn.2007-09.jp.ne.peach:aria:dn2800mt-boot For more info of Japanese is here: http://shell.peach.ne.jp/aoyama/archives/2097 http://shell.peach.ne.jp/aoyama/archives/2100 Have fun!
