Realtek 8112L Stuck at iPXE

[2cool4me4]

Hello again, forums.

Today I’m coming with a different problem. It seems like iPXE doesn’t want to boot on a Realtek 8112L (Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller, with ROM version 2.31). The undionly.kpxe file downloads, tries to boot, and gets stuck at “iPXE initialising devices”. I’m not sure how to track down this error or any workarounds to try… Please help!

We have working machines running with 8111(C?) cards, so I know that FOG is working properly. We have FOG version 2072

Try changing the undionly.kpxe to undionly.kkpxe

Ahaha! I renamed undionly.kkpxe to undionly.kpxe (I don’t have permission to access the DHCP server. ) and everything works! It’s also quite a bit faster than .kpxe. Many thanks!

I think it’s time to run a donate task.
