Network fails on compatibility test

[Tom Elliott]

Also, if you want, try the Kernel.TomElliott.3.10.1. I built it today so it should show up on the top of the unofficial kernel’s list.

[Jordon Rapp]

Yes I just installed 3.15.0. I will try to catch a video to show you

Based on what I’m seeing, it’s saying Could not boot, hosuch file or directory [url]http://ipxe.org/[/url]

This tells me your /tftpboot/default.ipxe file is not setup correctly.

What is the contents of this file on your system?

[Jordon Rapp]

#!ipxe
cpuid --ext 29 && set arch x86_64 || set arch i386
params
param mac ${net0/mac}
param arch ${arch}
chain [url]http://172.16.0.35/fog/service/ipxe/boot.php##params[/url]

[Tom Elliott]

Okay, as the video is kind of grainy please bare with me.

What is the value stored in FOG_PXE_BOOT_IMAGE from FOG Configuration->FOG Settings->TFTP Server

[Jordon Rapp]

The value for FOG_PXE_BOOT_IMAGE is init

[Tom Elliott]

Set it to init.xz

[Jordon Rapp]

Well, I’m back to square one now. The drives have been put in legacy mode, the kernel has been updated, and fog has been updated, but it still says it can’t register the host.

[Tom Elliott]

Have you tried my 3.10.one kernel

Looks like it’s still not detecting the nic properly I’ll try and build an older kernel when I get home

You’re a God among men, Mr. Elliott. Thank you kindly.

I’m no god. As a matter of fact, read this post: [url]http://fogproject.org/forum/threads/fog-community.6944/#post-16616[/url]

I think you’ll fully understand that I am still a human.

At any rate. Kernel.3.0.1.64 has been built and is available on the Unofficial Kernel’s page. If this get’s enough attention, I’ll post it to the Sourceforge site to make it “official”, after building the 32bit equivalent.

[Jordon Rapp]

Thank you for all your help. Unfortunately, our 780s are 32 bit, so this does me no good ATM.

[Tom Elliott]

780’s are 32 bit?

When they load they’re loading the bzImage32 and init_32.xz?

[Jordon Rapp]

Well they should be, they are 32 bit processors. But it does look as though they are loading init.xz

edit: and bzImage, but the OS shows that it is 32 bit.

The OS being 32 bit doesn’t mean the System is 32 bit. You can install 32 bit OS’s on 64 bit systems. You CANNOT install 64 bit OS’s on 32 bit systems.

My guess is your systems have 64 bit capable processors. This makes sense since nearly all processors are 64 bit now-a-days. There are a few exceptions with netbooks and maybe some extremely cheap laptop’s.

[Jordon Rapp]

Oh yes, how foolish of me. It is in-fact a 64 bit processor from Intel. Let me give this a try.
