      So, the screenshot is from a linux test box, so I got hold of a test Dell laptop that we have also and I have updated the BIOS on that to the latest from Dell and the same thing happens. It hangs at the same point.

        It looks like you are using dnsmasq running on your fog server here??

        Is your fog server at 10.60.16.129?

        On your fog server key in this command and post the results here: cat /tftpboot/default.ipxe

        Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG!

          @ayoward said in ipxe boot just hangs:

          http://10.60.16.129/fog/service/ipxe/boot.php##params

          As well, open that URL http://10.60.16.129/fog/service/ipxe/boot.php manually in your browser from a Windows/Linux client that is normally booted to see if you get any (text) output. Please copy and paste that output here so we can have a look.

          Web GUI issue? Please check apache error (debian/ubuntu: /var/log/apache2/error.log, centos/fedora/rhel: /var/log/httpd/error_log) and php-fpm log (/var/log/php*-fpm.log)

          Please support FOG if you like it: https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/Support_FOG

            Thanks for you help. Looking at the output here I can already see a problem, but which file do I edit?

              Yes, the Fog server is at 10.60.16.129

              The result of the command is chain http://10.60.16.129/fog/service/ipxe/boot.php##params

                @ayoward Interesting because my default.ipxe file contains a bit more.

                #!ipxe
cpuid --ext 29 && set arch x86_64 || set arch ${buildarch}
params
param mac0 ${net0/mac}
param arch ${arch}
param platform ${platform}
param product ${product}
param manufacturer ${product}
param ipxever ${version}
param filename ${filename}
param sysuuid ${uuid}
isset ${net1/mac} && param mac1 ${net1/mac} || goto bootme
isset ${net2/mac} && param mac2 ${net2/mac} || goto bootme
:bootme
chain http://192.168.1.53/fog/service/ipxe/boot.php##params

                Your fog boot.php page looks good and expected. I’m not sure I understand why your default.ipxe file only contains the chain command though.

                Does the file /opt/fog/.fogsettings exist ls -la /opt/fog ? Its a hidden file, if its missing then the fog installer did not complete correctly.

                Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG!

                    @george1421 and before I added that line into default.ipxe, there was nothing in there. Should I copy what you have in yours into mine?

                        @ayoward Yes just change the IP address to your fog server, the rest is generic.

                              @Pi0tR What is the output of this command? cat /tftpboot/default.ipxe keyed into the linux command prompt of your fog server.
