PXE boot usually does not allow for OS installation over network as the PXE client will only load a single file from the boot server. Similarly, booting Linux over network is usually a two stage process. In the first step, a boot loader such a grub or mini OS such as SysLinux are loaded via PXE from the boot server. The boot loader or miniOS then load the actual target OS which usually consists of multiple files which decompressed and installed into a RAM disk. The detailed process and required configuration of such network install will heavily depend on the target OS and boot loader / miniOS used. Please refer to the related documentation available. PXE boot requires a DHCP server and a TFTP server in the network to complete. DHCP Server and TFTP server are commonly run on the same machine and collectively referred to as “boot server”. Setting up such a boot server implies a couple of steps. How‐to guides for setting up Linux as PXE boot server are available on the internet, e.g. https://www.debianadministration.org/article/478/Setting_up_a_server_for_PXE_network_booting. Please note that it is recommended to setup a separate network / subnet for network booting as the DHCP required for PXE booting may conflict with existing DHCP servers in your network.

3. BIOS FWA‐1012VC BIOS is based on AMI’s APTIO BIOS and compliant to the UEFI, SMBIOS and ACPI specifications. The BIOS performs probing, initialization and configuration of the FWA‐1012VC and initializes the OS boot process at the end of POST (Power‐On‐Self‐Test). Regular BIOS output as well as the setup menu are displayed via console port and please note that the FWA‐ 1012VC does not have any on‐board POST Code LEDs. A special POST code adapter is required to retrieve BIOS error codes. All BIOS configuration parameters bare stored in NVRAM, a dedicated section of the BIOS flash chip. Parameters are no longer stored in legacy CMOS RAM by the platform BIOS. I.e. BIOS configuration parameters will not be lost due to an empty battery. BIOS Defaults The BIOS comes with a set of configuration parameters when shipped by Advantech referred to as “Optimized Defaults” or “factory defaults”. The user can change BIOS settings via the setup menu either temporarily or permanently by saving the changes as “User defaults”. The BIOS loads Optimized Defaults by the option “Restore Defaults; and loads User defaults by the option “Restore User Defaults”. If no User defaults have been defined, the BIOS will do nothing. BIOS Setup Menu This section describes the FWA‐1012VC’s UEFI BIOS based on AMI’s APTIO BIOS. Users can modify BIOS settings and control the special features of the FWA‐1012VC using the BIOS setup menu. Please note that Advantech supports shipping the FWA‐1012VC with custom BIOS defaults to simplify the deployment and integration for our customers. Please contact your Advantech representative if you want to receive more information regarding this service. The BIOS Setup Menu can be entered via the BIOS POST screen displayed on the console interface: Figure 15: BIOS POST screen (example) BIOS Setup can be entered by hitting <DEL> or <F2> keys during POST. The BIOS setup menu screens have a few main elements as shown below. The menu bar displays the ...
