=== Windows iSCSI forward authentication === == Test == Boot into a Windows XP operating system stored on an iSCSI target that requires forward CHAP authentication. == DUT configuration == No physical disks present. System configured to boot from NIC equipped with gPXE ROM. NIC non-volatile storage configured with iSCSI username and password. == Environment configuration == iSCSI target running IETD set up to require forward CHAP authentication. DHCP server providing network configuration and iSCSI root-path, but not providing iSCSI username and password (which are held in the DUT's non-volatile storage). == Result == Success is defined as reaching the Windows graphical login screen. === Detailed test procedure === == Prerequisites == * Image of installation CD (in this test, XP Professional SP 2): ''dd if=/dev/cdrom of=winxp.iso'' * QEMU * iscsitarget == Windows Setup == Create hard disk image: ''qemu-img create -f raw hd.img 4G'' Boot setup CD in QEMU: ''qemu -hda hd.img -cdrom winxp.iso -boot d'' Install as usual. Format as NTFS (quick) to save time, using the entire disk. After the first reboot, allow booting from hard disk (do not press a key at the "Boot from CD" prompt). First try at the graphical stage of setup got stuck at "Installing Devices" for at least an hour. TODO: investigate if this is due to kqemu or other environmental factors. Restarting QEMU allows it to continue...
