A. B. C. D.A.
PXE (Preboot Execution Environment) booting is a method of booting a computer over a network. When a computer is configured to PXE boot, it first sends a request to a PXE server, which responds by providing the necessary boot files to the computer. These files can be used to install a new operating system, perform system maintenance or repair, or execute other network-based tasks.
Therefore, based on the question, if a technician is PXE booting a computer, the most likely task they are performing on the computer is image deployment. Image deployment refers to the process of installing a pre-configured operating system image onto a computer. This can be useful in situations where a large number of computers need to be configured with the same settings and software.
Multiboot configuration involves setting up a computer to boot multiple operating systems, such as Windows and Linux, on the same machine. In-place upgrade refers to the process of upgrading an existing operating system to a newer version without completely reinstalling it. System repair involves fixing issues with an existing operating system, such as corrupted files or driver errors.
Therefore, neither multiboot configuration nor in-place upgrade nor system repair directly involve PXE booting, so they are less likely tasks to be performed by a technician who is PXE booting a computer.
