USB Stick mit vorhandenem bootfähigem ISO erstellen

Veröffentlicht am von Christoph Drabke

Nach langer Suche im Netz und Stunden die ich vergeudet habe mit Tools die einfach nicht so wollten wie ich das gerne gehabt hätte, habe ich doch was gefunden.

Das Zauberwort dazu ist hier XBOOT xbootvs1.0beta14
Website: https://sites.google.com/site/shamurxboot/

Im Tool wird einfach via Drag und Drop das ISO eingebunden und dann mit einem klick auf Create USB wird der angeschlossene USB Stick so präpariert dass dieser dann das ISO wie von einer CD bootet.
Was ich genial fand ist, dass man hier mehrere ISOs einhängen kann und dann im Bootmenü das entsprechende auswählen kann.

EINFACH, PRAKTIKABEL, SCHNELL.

TFTP Server PumpKIN

Veröffentlicht am von Christoph Drabke

PumpKIN is an open source, fully functional, free TFTP server and TFTP client, which implements TFTP according to RFC1350. It also implements block size option, which allows transfer of files over 32MB, as well as transfer size and transfer timeout options described in RFC2348 and RFC2349.

The primary use of PumpKIN is maintenance of the network equipment (such as router firmware upgrade) that fetches images from TFTP server, although it is also useful for transfering files between parties involved in a conversation over ntalk connection using our T42 software (it also detects ntalk conversation held over now obsolete program ‚wintalk‘).

The main PumpKIN features are:

  • Fully standard-compliant TFTP file transfer
  • Unlimited simultaneous transfers both for TFTP server and client
  • Support for TFTP blocksize option allows transfer of large files if both TFTP server and client support it
  • Convenient GUI
  • Combines TFTP server and TFTP client
  • Originally developed for Windows 95, it reportedly runs on all Win32 platforms: Windows 98, Windows NT, ME, XP
  • Can run in background, taking up a 256 pixels of screen nicely packed as a 16×16 square in your notification tray area
  • Open source for those willing to add missing features, fix bugs and examine code for potential flaws and fun
  • You’re free to torture it the way you want to as long as you preserve original author’s credentials
  • It would cost you nothing unless you’re willing to monetarily express your gratitude and make a donation (yes, it means „free“ or „freeware“, just go and download it)
  • The download size is about that of the high quality screenshot below

Note that PumpKIN is not an FTP server, neither it is an FTP client, it is a TFTP server and TFTP client. TFTP is not FTP, these are different protocols. TFTP, unlike FTP, is used primarily for transferring files to and from the network equipment (e.g. your router, switch, hub, whatnot firmware upgrade or backup, or configuration backup and restore) that supports using of TFTP server for, not for general purpose serving downloadable files or retrieving files from the FTP servers around the world.
