Dell Optiplex 7060 and UEFI

[ryand80]

Dell Optiplex 7060 not PXE booting into FOG with UEFI. After initial check:

Checking Media Presence…
Media Present…
Start PXE over IPv4.

Get following errors:

No bootable devices found.
Press F1 key to retry boot.
Press F2 key to reboot into setup.
Press F5 key to run onboard diagnostics.

Please help!! Older models of Optiplex work fine with legacy boot, but UEFI is only option with the 7060 model.

@ryand80 What is serving DHCP (and PXE boot information) in your network. Have you heard of different boot files that need to be used for legacy BIOS vs. UEFI PXE boot?! Read through this: https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php?title=BIOS_and_UEFI_Co-Existence

@Sebastian Roth
I’ve made the changes in the article (Windows Server 2012 R2) to no avail. Even limited PXE to just UEFI by changing DHCP scope option 67 to ipxe.efi.

Is your FOG server and pxe boot client on the same subnet? If so lets use the fog server to capture the dhcp boot process: https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/9673/when-dhcp-pxe-booting-process-goes-bad-and-you-have-no-clue

There has to be something going on that we don’t expect. Post the pcap here or to a google drive and then share the link so we can look at the pcap.

@george1421 Tried to upload pcap but didn’t work…

@ryand80 You will need to go with plan B then, upload the pcap to a file share site (google drive, dropbox, etc) and past the link here.

Hi,
i had the same problem with DELL Precision 3630.
no bootable device was found because the internal PCIe SSD was in Raid 0 mode.
I switched it to non RAID0 an then it works. But pay attention. I had to reinstall the OS.
Hope that helps.
