Nothing? I’m at a loss with this whole thing

Can you give my latest kernel build a shot?

I’m having trouble with the network cards as well in the Dells

So far I’ve tested the Dell OptiPlex 755 and receiving errors on the console reporting over and over.

DHCP/BOOTP: Ignoring fragmented reply
DHCP/BOOTP: Reply not for us
DHCP/BOOTP: Ignoring fragmented reply
IP-Config: Reopening network devices…

about about 3 or 4 minutes it loads but shows the network adapter as not available and lists it as failed.

I have tested with the latest kernel on the kernel updates as well as the ones from your website.
Both have the same issues.

The Dell 755 is listed as a Q35 Express chip and the network adapter is listed as Intel 82566DM-2 in windows.

I haven’t had a chance to check any other Dell Desktop yet.

Cheers,

This did not resolve the issue.

Can you provide a screen shot?

I can assure you, my kernels have the e1000e drivers. As a matter of fact, the one I had you try last night has nearly anything related to Intel enabled.

Edit for context: The first image hangs like that for a couple minutes, the the second picture hangs for a bit as well. Then it skips all the FOG info and says it can’t be registered and gives my system info. The it just attempts to inventory until I put it out of it’s misery.

Okay:

What steps did you use to update the kernel?

By it “sitting like this for a few minutes” is it not doing anything or does it go further, or you’re not patient enough for it?

[Jordon Rapp]

I downloaded the kernel, drug it to my desktop, then in terminal:
[CODE]sudo mv ~/Desktop/bzImage32 /var/www/fog/service/ipxe[/CODE]

I do wait for it, the rest of that album shows what happens

[Jordon Rapp]

I know it’s rare, but could the NIC be bad?

[Tom Elliott]

hmmmmmm

You’re running 1.0.1 right?

I’ll bet the file that’s loading is bzImage, not bzImage32.

[code]sudo mv /var/www/fog/service/ipxe/bzImage /var/www/fog/service/ipxe/bzImage_05JUN2014
sudo mv /var/www/fog/service/ipxe/bzImage32 /var/www/fog/service/ipxe/bzImage32_05JUN2014
sudo wget -O /var/www/fog/service/ipxe/bzImage --no-check-certificate https://mastacontrola.com/fogboot/kernel/bzImage
sudo wget -O /var/www/fog/service/ipxe/bzImage32 --no-check-certificate https://mastacontrola.com/fogboot/kernel/bzImage32[/code]

[Jordon Rapp]

I am, 1.0.1 on Ubuntu 13 on a Dell Optiplex 755. I will run those commands real quick

[Jordon Rapp]

Right after I select Perform Full Host Registration, it [I]does [/I]say
[QUOTE]/bzImage… ok[/QUOTE]
So this could be the problem

Why would that be a problem?

[Jordon Rapp]

Could that possibly mean it’s loading bzImage, and not bzImage32, as you said?

[Tom Elliott]

That’s expected in 1.0.1.

bzImage is 64 bit, bzImage32 is 32 bit.

That means you’re loading init.xz and NOT init_32.xz.

If you copied bzImage32 as bzImage your system would panic.

There’s no issue, just want to make sure the right files are updated.

[Jordon Rapp]

I think I’m narrowing it down to hardware, and not software. I’ve tried many kernels, and everything is open on the network.

[Tom Elliott]

So do you have any “identical” systems that you could test with?

[Jordon Rapp]

We do have a few more 780’s around the branch, our SVP has one and is leaving soon, I will check when he leaves in an hour.
