      @george1421 All these Dell AIO PCs have this failure in fairness. BIOS mode. I guess it has to do something with dnspasq missidentifiying the computer ?

      Fog settings appear correctly. I don’t have and will never have 32 bit clients, so I guess a workaround could be sending 64 bzimage and initrd files to these clients identified as 32 in the setting you suggest.

      I will try to troubleshoot dnsmasq and see.

      Any other idea? Can some one identify any issue with my dnsmasq ?

      Thanks,

        Its not a dnsmasq issue. dnsmasq only instructs to pickup ipxe.efi or undionly.kpxe once that boot loader is running dnsmasq has done its job. For some reason ipxe is misidentifying the processor as 32 bit only. Will you collect the exact processor model in these AIO?

        I just saw in your previous message ipxe.kkpxe is being sent. Update your dnsmasq to send undionly.kpxe instead. That shouldn’t matter because ipxe.kkpxe uses the internal network adapters and undionly.kpxe uses the generic UNDI driver. But for consistency sake, lets make sure its not an ipxe issue.

        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 I can confirm my workaround worked, and sending 64bit kernel and initrd images boots FOS no problem.

            @george1421 I was tenting other pxe images. It is using undionly.kpxe to BIOS machines and snp.efi for UEFI, unless you recommend anything else, I really have no idea which one to use, just using what seems most popular.

              @lperoma Undionly.kpxe and snp.efi are probably the safest choices. Both of these use the built in driver built into the network adapter. The ipxe.pxe and ipxe.efi are more like the linux kernel where it has every known driver built into the boot loader. All of the other ipxe boot loaders are for unique situations that are not common.

              So your system is an old 4th gen i5 processor. That’s strange that ipxe is misidentifying that CPU.

                @george1421 As FYI, this machine is also missindentified in FOG as 32 bits. The same workaround is workking fine now:

                      I should have said I am running 1.5.10.1662 on debian 12.

                      Before updating to this version, I was using Debian 11 with 1.5.10.10 and had no problems.
                      Thanks,

                      seems that i have same problem on old pc. that problem don’t exist with 1.5.10 version:

                        @lperoma @fabritrento Please try updating dev-branch to the latest version.

                        I have added some additional checking.

                        Granted 32 bit binaries should be able to work without problem but alas it seems there’s an issue currently.

                        The latest dev-branch tries to address this by taking account of the buildarch of the ipxe binary being i386, but the CPU architecture being 64 bit. I need testing please of course if both of you wouldn’t mind?

                        Thanks in advance.

                            I was able to find a work around after running into this issue. In FOG Settings under TFTP Server update the “TFTP PXE KERNAL 32” to bzImage and “PXE BOOT IMAGE” to init.xz. I was able get thing working after that.
