    @george1421 thanks - good steps to check.

    Yes, I can ping from that subnet, and I can also tftp the file from one of my linux hosts on that subnet with no issues. There is a router in between, but it’s not filtering traffic to my knowledge. It is passing DHCP requests to our windows DHCP server for that subnet/vlan however.

    And yes, the ip address is correct, the router is sat on 10.1.22.254.

    Just follow these steps:
    Replace the following files (I used the default installation):

    /root/fogproject/utils/FOGiPXE/buildipxe.sh /root/ipxe/src/config/usb.h

    then fire:

    /root/fogproject/utils/FOGiPXE/buildipxe.sh

    and finally copy the files to the target folder:

    cp -r /root/fogproject/packages/ftp/* /tftpboot

    Hi,

    I’m using fog server 1.5.10 on Ubuntu 22.04.
    Till now everything worked but this week we had to create a WS2K25 dump.

    And just after the grub try to start on hard disk we have this error :

    Launching GRUB... begin pxe call(type=DHCP_ACK)... Fatal: DHCP_ACK failure! PXE unload fails: 106 Starting cmain() ...

    The test have been done on Optiplex 5050 and Optiplex 9020.

    On the 9020, changing the SATA type form RAID or AHCI to SATA in BIOS solves the issue but on 5050 the SATA option does not exist.

    Anyway, any other os image from Linux to W11 or WS2K22 works without any issue with AHCI setup.

    Any idea on how to solves this ?

    @Jchinn412 The answer is it depends on how you have your disk structure setup

    Post the results of these two commands.

    lsblk
    df -h

    It maybe easy or harder (but not impossible) depending on how you have the disk created.

    Hello everyone,

    As I work at a secondary school, I was able to get hold of some Catalina iMacs (iMac 14.3).
    I already use FOG to deploy Windows and Linux images on PCs.

    I would like to deploy a LinuxMint image on these iMacs.

    However, I am unable to boot into PXE on them with FOG, and I do not know what is wrong.

    I modified my DHCP server as follows:

    ## FOG class "UEFI-32-1" { match if substring(option vendor-class-identifier, 0, 20) = "PXEClient:Arch:00006"; filename "i386-efi/ipxe.efi"; } class "UEFI-32-2" { match if substring(option vendor-class-identifier, 0, 20) = "PXEClient:Arch:00002"; filename "i386-efi/ipxe.efi"; } class "UEFI-64-1" { match if substring(option vendor-class-identifier, 0, 20) = "PXEClient:Arch:00007"; filename "ipxe.efi"; } class "UEFI-64-2" { match if substring(option vendor-class-identifier, 0, 20) = "PXEClient:Arch:00008"; filename "ipxe.efi"; } class "UEFI-64-3" { match if substring(option vendor-class-identifier, 0, 20) = "PXEClient:Arch:00009"; filename "ipxe.efi"; } class "Apple-Intel-Netboot" { match if substring (option vendor-class-identifier, 0, 14) = "AAPLBSDPC/i386"; option dhcp-parameter-request-list 1,3,17,43,60; if (option dhcp-message-type = 8) { option vendor-class-identifier "AAPLBSDPC"; if (substring(option vendor-encapsulated-options, 0, 3) = 01:01:01) { # BSDP List option vendor-encapsulated-options 01:01:01:04:02:80:00:07:04:81:00:05:2a:09:0D:81:00:05:2a:08:69:50:58:45:2d:46:4f:47; } elsif (substring(option vendor-encapsulated-options, 0, 3) = 01:01:02) { #BSDP Select option vendor-encapsulated-options 01:01:02:08:04:81:00:05:2a:82:0a:4e:65:74:42:6f:6f:74:30:30:31; # filename "i386-efi/ipxe.efi"; filename "snp.efi"; } } } class "Legacy" { match if substring(option vendor-class-identifier, 0, 20) = "PXEClient:Arch:00000"; filename "undionly.kkpxe"; } ### END FOG

    I tested ipxe.efi in 64-bit and 32-bit, as well as snp.efi, but it still doesn’t work. I get some kind of spinning planet when I try to boot.

    I admit I don’t fully understand the documentation page: https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/FOG_on_a_MAC

    Thanks in advance!

    @Tom-Elliott oh, sorry, I didn’t notice this big yellow button in the General tab

    48c096ca-5f09-42d1-84dc-647e5bc6e22d-image.png

    And I can see the same button for the group, so I guess I can handle this. Thank you very much @Tom-Elliott ! 😄
