      Yeah, it sounds like you’re on the right track. my undonly.kpxe looks slightly different
      [CODE]
      $ cd /tftpboot
      $ ls -l undionly.kpxe
      -rw-r–r–. 1 fog root 102825 Jun 17 14:46 undionly.kpxe
      $ md5sum undionly.kpxe

      2967e86058a2ed5fbc159f722a62e211 undionly.kpxe
      [/CODE]

      If you untar a copy of the fog installer somewhere then you can copy out the file, it should be under packages/tftp/undionly.kpxe. Copy that into place and see if you are back in business.

        So now it looks like I have the same size pxe boot file as you, so I tried PXE booting the server again and…
        [CODE]Could not configure console: Input/output error (http://ipxe.org/1d8c2139)

        Could not boot: Input/output error (http://ipxe.org/1d8c2139)[/CODE]

        The link in the error message says that the error originated from vesafb.c (line 114)
        [CODE]/**
        103 * Convert VBE status code to iPXE status code
        104 *

        107 */
        108 static int vesafb_rc ( unsigned int status ) {
        109 unsigned int code;
        110
        111 if ( ( status & 0xff ) != 0x4f )
        112 return -ENOTSUP;
        113 code = ( ( status >> 8 ) & 0xff );
        114 return ( code ? -EIO_VBE ( code ) : 0 );[/CODE]

        I have no idea how to resolve this. Any ideas?

          I don’t know iPXE (or PXE) well so I’m not sure what the sequence is, but just comparing the file sizes in the directories, my default.ipxe looks different from yours. I’ll md5sum everything in that directory to let you compare
          [CODE]
          $ md5sum *

          params
          param mac0 ${net0/mac}
          param arch ${arch}
          isset ${net1/mac} && param mac1 ${net1/mac} || goto bootme
          isset ${net2/mac} && param mac2 ${net2/mac} || goto bootme

          :bootme
          [/CODE]

          The missing (and corrupt??) files are weird. A reinstall might fix it, but it’s probably better if we can figure out what has gone wrong this time.

            The default.ipxe you’re seeing looks wrong to me, unless you cut out the last line because of IP?
            The last line should be set to something like:
            chain 192.168.1.1/fog/service/ipxe/boot.php##params

              Yes, sorry! that line is indeed in my default.ipxe - lazy copy pasting!

              [CODE]

              [/CODE]

              Actually BBBBLaine, now that I think about it, your default.ipxe IS going to be different from mine, it’ll have your fog server’s IP address in it. Can you verify that the contents of your ipxe file that is chain loaded look sane? (point a browser at [url]http://MY[/url] IP HERE/fog/service/ipxe/boot.php##params). Here’s mine

                In this [URL=‘http://fogproject.org/forum/threads/dell-optiplex-320.10872/’]other thread[/URL] where the same issue seems to be happening, somebody suggested trying different boot files.

                Tried undionly.kpxe.INTEL:
                [CODE]http://10.1.0.21/fog/service/ipxe/boot.php… ok
                http://10.1.0.21/fog/service/ipxe/bg.png...transmit timed out
                transmit timed out
                38%transmit timed out
                transmit timed out
                transmit timed out
                51%[/CODE]

                Tried undionly.pxe:
                This boot file only reboots the server immediately after it loads. I don’t see anything useful come up on the screen.

                Tried vesamenu.c32:
                PXE doesn’t do anything after getting an IP from DHCP… just sits there.

                Tried ipxe.kkpxe:
                Just like with undionly.pxe… server reboots

                Tried ipxe.kpxe:
                Server reboots

                Tried ipxe.pxe:
                Server reboots

                Tried ipxe.krn:
                [CODE]This image cannot be loaded from a floppy disk.[/CODE] <-- What?? o.O

                Tried pxelinux.0.old (it’s worth a shot, I guess):
                [CODE]Trying to load: pxelinux.cfg/
                Trying to load: pxelinux.cfg/44454c4c-5100-1057-804d-b2c04f4e4731

                Trying to load: pxelinux.cfg/0A01
                Trying to load: pxelinux.cfg/0A0
                Trying to load: pxelinux.cfg/0A
                Trying to load: pxelinux.cfg/0
                Trying to load: pxelinux.cfg/default
                Unable to locate configuration file

                Boot failed: press a key to retry, or wait for reset…
                [/CODE]

                At this point, I’m stuck.

                Does anybody have a WORKING installation of Fog 1.1.1? If so, what distro of linux is it running on? Maybe I’m just running into a bug?

                  I’m running it on RHEL 6.5 and also Centos 5. Do you have any other clients you can try to iPXE boot? the VESA thing might be a hardware issue.

                      The only files you should be trying are:
                      ipxe.pxe
                      ipxe.kpxe
                      ipxe.kkpxe
                      undionly.pxe
                      undionly.kpxe
                      undionly.kkpxe

                      I’d first start by trying the (same named) files in:
                      [url]https://svn.code.sf.net/p/freeghost/code/trunk/packages/tftp/[/url]

                      Just replace the file name with undionly.kpxe (so you don’t have to change dhcp stuff).
                      Example:
                      [code]wget -O /tftpboot/undionly.kpxe https://svn.code.sf.net/p/freeghost/code/trunk/packages/tftp/undionly.pxe
                      wget -O /tftpboot/undionly.kpxe https://svn.code.sf.net/p/freeghost/code/trunk/packages/tftp/undionly.kpxe
                      wget -O /tftpboot/undionly.kpxe https://svn.code.sf.net/p/freeghost/code/trunk/packages/tftp/undionly.kkpxe
                      wget -O /tftpboot/undionly.kpxe https://svn.code.sf.net/p/freeghost/code/trunk/packages/tftp/ipxe.pxe

                        Okay I’m trying each of those one by one…
                        With undionly.pxe I get:
                        Reboot after “Initialising devices”

                        [/CODE] then the server reboots with no error message

                        EDIT maybe I will try this on a different machine to see if maybe there’s just some problem with this server… It is a Dell PowerEdge 2900 - refurbished (I mean the server I’m using to try PXE boot at least. The Fog server is a Virtual Machine on ESXi 5.5)

                          That sounds like a good idea, it would be informative to see some different PXE clients. Good luck!

                            I tested PXE booting on a Dell Latitude D630 laptop (yes, very old, but it was the closest machine to me besides my workstation) and it worked with the undionly.kpxe boot image from [url]https://svn.code.sf.net/p/freeghost/code/trunk/packages/tftp/[/url] !

                            The PowerEdge 2900 server still doesn’t boot with it… I will test with a different 2900 tomorrow to see if it’s just something wrong with this particular box or what. If it’s not working on any 2900, then I don’t think Fog could serve as a replacement for Acronis in our environment, as 90% of the servers we deploy to buildings are 2900’s.

                              Glad to hear your PXE server is working! For the 2900 it might be worth double checking the network card settings in the BIOS or sticking the service tag into dell.com and looking for updated firmware.

                                  I only added the console information because it’s prettier.

                                  It works on most systems, but occasionally we see this message. I’m aware of the problem and if you don’t need to have the picture I can remove it to make it more usable.

                                    I commented out line 540 of /var/www/fog/lib/fog/BootMenu.class.php like you suggested and it worked! I got to the Fog menu! However… When I try to do Quick Registration or Full Registration, I get an error:
                                    [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/HSWXzOd.jpg[/IMG]
                                    It continues until I see this:
                                    [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/YDcuyv5.jpg[/IMG]

                                    After that, it keeps scrolling down until I see nothing but a blank screen, and nothing appears in the Fog host inventory.

                                      I’m currently building a 64 and 32 bit kernel with this firmware added. Thank you.

                                          You’re amazing! I downloaded the new kernels and replaced the old ones and my PE 2900 is now uploading an image to my Fog server!

                                          Thank you so much for your help. This is a huge step in being able to replace our existing Acronis system with Fog.
