note the extra k, you will need to make sure you dhcp option 67 is set for that (or rename this file to the same as the last one, but make note of this technically incorrect naming convention)[/quote]

I had more success with this file, unfortunately it only boots to line: "Configuring (net0 <mac add>) . . . "

Hardware: Dell OptiPlex 9020

Any other possible tips?

I’m having the same issues as these guys, brand new install of 1.0.1 on Ubuntu 14.04 server edition. Tried the file above - got an “operation not permitted” message and the machine boots to windows.

This is on a HP Z230 right now.

Try the latest and greatest within svn trunk?

Any of the ipxe or undionly labeled files. They have the “true” fix from ipxe in them.

Can i try both? Or does it have to be a undionly.kpxe?
