Function Compute is unsupported in several Alibaba Cloud regions. Rewrite the censorship bypass mechanism to access OSS buckets using a temporary ECS instance instead of a temporary Function Compute function. Importing images now requires that the account has been prepared using the "ali-setup" script, which creates the necessary role, VPCs, and vSwitches to allow ECS instances to be launched in each region.

iPXE network bootloader
iPXE is the leading open source network boot firmware. It provides a full PXE implementation enhanced with additional features such as:
-
boot from a web server via HTTP or HTTPS,
-
boot from an iSCSI, FCoE, or AoE SAN,
-
control the boot process with a script,
You can use iPXE to replace the existing PXE ROM on your network card, or you can chainload into iPXE to obtain the features of iPXE without the hassle of reflashing.
iPXE is free, open-source software licensed under the GNU GPL (with some portions under GPL-compatible licences).
You can download the rolling release binaries (built from the latest commit), or use the most recent stable release.
