Intel NUC D54250WYK network boot
-
I’ve successfully used FOG on :
Intel NUC DBN2820FYK
Intel NUC D54250WYBProgramming the BIOS on either is tricky, especially for the first one. I used both in legacy mode.
For the first unit, after PXE boot/deployment, you MUST turn PXE boot OFF in the BIOS if you want it to ever boot properly again.
Even though both were used in Legacy mode, both still had to have the UEFI settings set. Frankly the BIOSes are bafflingly thought out in reverse and quite annoying.

Do you have WiKi access? You need to add that info into the hardware lists, and also explain the complications/solutions that need done. If you don’t, I can do it.

I just fogged a NUC5i5RYH
Didn’t even need to enter system settings. Out of the box it booted to nic first and worked. -

-
Windows DHCP server serving bootfile undionly.kpxe
fog server at SVN 2948, relatively stock configuration. -

Could you check to see if the NUC is set for legacy boot? -
already boxed it back up and gave it back to the coworker it belongs to, sorry.
i did drop an Ubuntu image on it, so ipxe/kernel/everything seemed to be compatible -
Thanks all for your input.
sorry for late reply. mrs had emergency section at 26wks and baby is now in intensive care :-s
but Ive managed to get it to work, eventually…
even though they are all the same model and firmware, some worked, some didnt. after getting it boot via network and registering with fog it then decided not to boot to network again, via f12 (network boot) or by using netwook as 1st boot option. after a bit of digging and testing i managed to get it booting to network correctly with bios update WY0035.bio. the one installed was WY0021…

Great to hear! Thanks for reporting back.
All the best to your family!!!

Hi,
I’m having the same problem here on BN2820FYKH. The first NUC I used to make the Primary Image worked fine and I was able to upload the image and use it. I’ve tried two more (I have 107) and both hang on iPXE initialing devices. The BIOS Settings are a copy, I’ve looked. What am I missing?
Best Regards
-
BIOS update/downgrade…!?

It’s working now. I can’t explain why this happens, but I’ve searched a lot in this forum and on another thread an user explained something related wiht NIC not being properly shutdown by Intel, so… What i’ve done in all NUCs is boot an LiveOS (Ubuntu for eg.) and after that restart to Network boot and it’s working. Already done 20 NUCs everything works, except Full Host Register (didn’t spent many time seing why)

If you can, a screen shot or picture of the errors during full host registration would be helpful.
-
That’s the problem. There is no screen
-
Really?
So… You don’t see “Full Registration” on the menu at all? Can you take a video of what happens after you select that option?
-
I see the option. When I hit that option screen goes black. I will make a video tomorrow. As a work around I adjusted Quick Registration settings and done the job.

Awesome!!! I do remember the times when you had to properly shutdown the computer to be able to wake it up over LAN. And I’ve also see kind of recent PCs still having that issue. But I have never heard about machines not being able to PXE boot if not being shutdown properly! Thanks a lot for reporting this. I’ll add this to the wiki right now!Edit: Done, [url]http://fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/WorkingDevices#Computers[/url]
[B]Edit2: What about the BN2820FYKH? Do they work as well?[/B]

this problem happens with some network cards. in some cases, the only fix people have found is unplugging the power and network cable for a computer, waiting a few seconds, plugging things back in and they suddenly work. it’s not really a problem with our software, it’s a problem with their firmware.

I forgot to mention that I was using a [B]DN2820FYKH[/B]. Sorry -
But I can tell that the other thread I saw in this forum was related to another NUC model. So maybe it’s a NUC thing
