But does’nt work in Uefi with to set ipxe.efi
I will tryfor boot with an Machin MAC for capture image sys.Thank you, I hope someone can find the solution to my problem rated UEFI

@keurky Please test this with a real machine, not hyper V. I understand your goal may be to capture a hyper-v image, but we need to find out where the problem isn’t. Right now we don’t know if this is a hyper-v issue, a pxe boot kernel issue, or something else. We need to start removing things from the problem until we find the solution. So test with a uefi based real computer first.
I can tell you when ever you see something saying downloading “NBP” that is a UEFI bios. It expects a UEFI based boot loader like ipxe.efi. You CAN NOT boot a uefi based system with a bios boot loader i.e. undionly.kpxe.

But i will test with a real machine after VirtualBOx.
Thank U, for your answer.

@keurky I’m only asking to test the target computer pxe booting with a real computer and not a VM. The issue is with the target computer uefi firmware not the FOG server.
And FWIW, virtualbox does not support (AFAIK) uefi firmware emulation. So you can’t test a uefi based image using virtualbox. For hyper-v it has to be a type 2 (sorry its probably the wrong word, but I don’t use hyper-v) virtual machine to support uefi.

I am not sure if this is still correct with most current versions of Virtual Box but as far as I know Virtual Box cannot PXE boot in UEFI mode!

@george1421 No problem, i test with a Computer “real Machine” in EUFI (files ipxe.pxe) and that Work !!!
Thank you for your Help !
Source problem: Hyper-V

If you still want to test this on a VM, I’m pretty sure vmware workstation supports uefi clients (I know 100% sure that ESXi does because that is where I build my uefi reference images). I’m not sure about vmware player. I have not used that platform in a while.

@keurky I am fairly sure we have people in the forums using Hyper-V and are able to PXE boot in UEFI mode. Not that can prove it myself but. @x23piracy

@Sebastian-Roth Actually, on the latest VirtualBox it seems that there is a way to UEFI PXE boot now. (chipset ICH9 and network adapter type to virtio-net), but I haven’t really tested it any significant amount. It gets to the FOG menu at any rate.
