      Disclaimer: I have only tested this on Lenovo laptops.

      Go to this wiki entry: [url]http://www.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/Building_undionly.kpxe[/url]

      Follow steps until you get to ‘Build the undionly/ipxe files.’

      Build ipxe.usb with this command: [CODE]make bin/ipxe.usb EMBED=ipxescript[/CODE]

      Find your usb location (/dev/sdc for me): [CODE]ls -l /dev/sd*[/CODE]

      Write ipxe.usb to the usb:[CODE]dd if=bin/ipxe.usb of=/dev/sdc[/CODE]

            Ok. Let’s start over.

            You’re using FOG 1.2.0.

            What distribution and version of Linux?

                And you said you’d try dnsmasq if it was simple ?

                  I have no idea how it works dnmasq … if not bring me problems with what is already armed … there would be problems.

                  My dhcp, currently assigned ips, and also has a boot loader for dumb terminals for remote desktop working … and it is not feasible to modify this …

                  Therefore, I need “something” bootee via USB, take my dhcp ip, and be redirected to the server will boot directly fog … if by network normally reach a remote Windows desktop …

                  I hope is clear, as I am using Google translator, not handle the English.

                  Apologies and thank you very much for your help !!!

                    Ok.

                    I’ll work on a USB boot drive tonight, and if/when I get it going, I’ll provide an ISO copy.

                    I want one for myself anyways.

                              That’s what I have so far… it’s not working.

                                ditched syslinux.

                                etherboot seems very promising and I had more luck with it, and it’s simpler to use.

                                  ipxe.iso

                                  I got it working with this iso.

                                  ipxescript:

                                  #!ipxe
                                  echo -n Please enter tftp server: && read next-server && goto netboot
                                  :netstart
                                  dhcp && goto netboot || goto netstart
                                  :netboot
                                  ping -c 1 ${next-server} || goto netstart
                                  chain tftp://${next-server}/default.ipxe || shell

                                      Sure.

                                      I followed the instructions in the Building undionly.kpxe wiki entry.

                                      Except for the ipxescript I used the previous script and the command to build was:

                                      make bin/ipxe.iso EMBED=ipxescript
                                      

                                      I wrote the iso using dd: “dd if=ipxe.iso of=/dev/sdb bs=4M” replace sdb with your drive

                                          Well, I tell them that I took the time to try the ISO CML … and the truth … it’s very nearly what I need … exept for a question … if I need to install 10 pcs at the same time, having this ISO on a flash drive … it could perform smoothly … nor any conflict with my dhcp ??? From what I saw, putting the direction of the mist, it goes directly to the …

                                          I have to get the hat !!! Spectacular !!!

                                          Surely … I will continue to consult for further progress and learning!

                                          Thank you very much !!!
