Abstract: A method for loading a configuration file from a remote server to an electronic device includes obtaining a default configuration file from the remote server, and executing the default configuration file to boot the electronic device, identifying a corresponding MAC list in the remote server according to hardware configurations of the electronic device, and obtaining a specific MAC value corresponding to an unused status flag from the MAC list. The method further includes obtaining a default MAC value of a network card of the electronic device, replacing the default MAC value of the network card with the specific MAC value, obtaining a specific configuration file from the remote server according to the specific MAC value, and rebooting the electronic device according to the specific configuration file.

Abstract: A method of diskless booting an electronic device sends a request for an IP address of the electronic device to a pre-boot execution environment (PXE) server. After receiving the request, the PXE server allocates an IP address to the electronic device, and sends a bootstrap program to the electronic device. The electronic device receives a configuration file of the electronic device from the PXE server, and executes one or more operating system kernels of the configuration file.

Abstract: A method for testing a random-access memory (RAM) includes six tests. The first test is performed by performing a write and read test to storage locations of the RAM. The second test is performed by testing walking 1's across each data bus of the RAM. The third test is performed by testing walking 0's across the data bus of the RAM. The fourth test is performed by testing walking 1's across each address bus of the RAM. The fifth test is performed by testing walking 0's across the address bus bit of the RAM. The sixth test is performed by performing a write and read test to random blocks in the storage locations of the RAM.

Abstract: A testing system for an embedded system is provided. The testing system includes a plurality of devices and one or more host computers. Each device, which includes the embedded system to be tested, is connected to the host computer via a network based on the network file system protocol. The host computers are further connected with a control server, and each of the host computers comprises a root file system. The control server is configured for providing an interface for a user to set test parameters, controlling each of the host computers to invoke a test program, thereby testing the embedded system according to the test parameters, and receiving test results of the embedded system from the host computer. A related testing method is also provided.
