    Hello,
    In my attempt to switch to HTTPS for the Fog server, I encountered the same issue of the keyboard being disabled in the iPXE menu. After several unsuccessful tests, I consulted Copilot. After reviewing all the scripts and .h files, it indicated that the issue stemmed from the size of the iPXE.efi file I was using. It was too large due to all the necessary modules for HTTPS, causing iPXE to deactivate the USB keyboard functionality during loading. Consequently, I opted for snponly.efi instead, and now the keyboard works perfectly.

    I modified the script buildipxe.sh :

    sed -i ‘s+#define USB_HCD_USBIO+//#define USB_HCD_USBIO+g’ config/usb.h
    sed -i ‘s+#define USB_KEYBOARD+//#define USB_KEYBOARD+g’ config/usb.h
    sed -i ‘s+//#define USB_EFI+#define USB_EFI+g’ config/usb.h

    May I propose a change in the console.h : Could you set the keyboard map to “dynamic” instead of “us” ? That way we can easily set our language in default.ipxe

    //#define KEYBOARD_MAP us // Default US keyboard map
    #define KEYBOARD_MAP dynamic // Runtime selectable keyboard map

    @Tom-Elliott I really appreciate that you are putting effort into providing more frequent releases, which makes it easier for everyone to deploy new security fixes in time. Keep up the good work!

    @youzersef Ok, see how long it takes me to get back on a project…lol

    I did some more looking, and found yes, the GUI will re-write the dhcp config file. However I did some more reading and I guess services.inc determines what is written by the GUI.

    Sorry, not a CLI guy, and I love the quick and easy edits, viewing issues that the GUI provides. Like Fog ! However my servers are headless…lol

    Anyway, looking that route now, and will update if I find how Negate wants services edited so when it reboots, DHCP will remain.

    Determined 🙂

    Any thank you everyone here . This place has always been great for information !
