Stuck at Bzimage or int when trying to deploy or full register

[Warsonix]

Hello There!

Any hints?
We have a fog server which run just fine with every machine we have so far ( dell , lenovo , and so on )
Everything has worked correctly since we using it
We now have received new DELL LAPTOP 3540
Now , with these new models , we are able to reach the fog project page ( booting pxe ) and see the menu , but If I try to full register host or just deploy image , it freezes at BzImage at random % and if it pass the bzimage it freezes on the next which is “int"something”

I have scrolled thru the bios tryin to find settings that I could mess with to find a fix , but no success.

I tried to switch the Mac adresse pass throu in bios from it default settings to “disable” or to " integrated nic 1 adress" but no sucess…

What we found as a fix for now is using an external usb nic , that way we can work as usual , its just bothering because it requires manipulation in fog to remove the nic usb mac to remplace it by the real card mac and so on so you dont get doublon

Do you have anyway idea how we could fix this?

Cheers guys , thank you

@Warsonix Try using a different iPXE binary. The default for UEFI machines is snp.efi and you might want to try ipxe.efi or snponly.efi.

@Sebastian-Roth Hey!

Thank you for your help there!
Sadly , the employee that has setup the fog server has left , so we still learning how to set stuff.

Can you please take me by the hand and tell me how I can switch from snp.efi to ipxe.efi or snponly.efi thank you

I’ll try to find myself in the meantime!!

Cheers have a great day and thank you!
