Web GUI with problems in FOG 1.0.1
-
UEFI needs to be disabled. at present, only legacy boot works.
-
I’ve done that… but the old PCs (non-UEFI) are unable to receive the undionly.kpxe file now.
In older machines, I get:
[INDENT=1]PXE-E53: No boot filename receive[/INDENT]
[INDENT=1]PXE-M0F: exiting Intel Boot Agent[/INDENT]
In the new machines, with Legacy mode enabled, I get (the first time I booted):
[INDENT=1]PXE->EB: !PXE at 99C6:0070, entry point at 99C6:0100[/INDENT]
[INDENT=2]UNDI code segment 99C6:3ABC, data segment 0D7B:C4B0 (565-630kB)[/INDENT]
[INDENT=2]UNDI device is PCI 03:00.0, type DIX+802.3[/INDENT]
[INDENT=2]565kB free base memory after PXE unload[/INDENT]
[INDENT=1]iPXE initializing devices…ok[/INDENT]
[INDENT=1] [/INDENT]
[INDENT=1]iPXE 1.0.0+ (7627f) – Open Source Network Boot Firmware - [url]http://ipxe.org[/url][/INDENT]
[INDENT=1]Features: FTP HTTP HTTPS iSCSI DNS TFTP VLAN AoE bxImage ELF MBOOT PXE PXEXT Menu[/INDENT]
[INDENT=1]Configuring (net0 e0:3f:49:46:8d:e4)…"[/INDENT]
Then, although a bunch of messages with error appear (see attached photo), I could acces Fog Menu and,for example, register host (full).
In GUI I can see the new host, added it to a group, and in basic tasks, ordered image to upload.
Now, it keeps looping in boot, appearing everything until “iPXE initializing devices…”. Deleted task, but problem remains.With all this in mind, I think it may have smthing to do with some incompatibility of the NIC with undionly.kpxe… what can I test more?

Just to send other photos of the boot process of the new machines…

Older hosts (non-UEFI) present error

Just changed undionly.kpxe to be undionly.kpxe.INTEL, and now I managed to have new machines uploading image.
But older machines still getting error in PXE file not found. And they don’t ever start because keep looping in trying to boot from PXE -
From a windows machine make sure you can even get the file from the server by using this command.
NOTE that if this si windows 7 you need to add the tftp client in the Windows add remove features
[code]
tftp x.x.x.x get undionly.kpxe[/code] where x.x.x.x kis your fog server. -

Do they allow for PXE boot? Are they on the same subnet as the systems that are known to work?
-
From my Windows 7 client, I could download the file (after allowing TFTP in my firewall)
-
I’m using latest version of FOG (1.1.0) and undionly.kpxe.INTEL (which I renamed to undionly.kpxe).
My server is a CentOS 6.5 installed from zero, with option Basic Server.
Then downloaded Fog 1.1.0 (via SVN) and installed it through ./installfog.sh.
DHCP is handled by CISCO Switch, in a multiple VLAN environement, but all computers boot at the appropriate VLAN (quarentine VLAN, which is where the eth0 NIC card of the server is configured with static IP 10.1.8.1). All configuration (66 and 67) are present and correctly configured (the proof of this is that my 35 new machines all get access to Fog menu, and receive images).
The problem is only with my HP dc7900p computers, which at PXE boot show this error (PXE-E53). They were working perfectly with Fog 0.32 (it’s 350 of them, and all got imaged severall times).
From a Windows 7 client, I managed to get th undionly.kpxe file using “tftp 10.1.8.1 get undionly.kpxe”. -
Just tested tftp client frm Windows 7 in one of these HP dc7900p computers, and it worked.
After testing all this, it’s working.
Don’t ask me why or how… but it started working.
Thank you all for your support.
