This is happening again - Re: [Client boot to HD goes to memtest.](/topic/6301/client-boot-to-hd-goes-to-memtest)

[JJ Fullmer]

After updating to just before 6285 the booting to memtest instead of harddisk after the countdown problem has returned.

The issue seems intermittent and not on all devices though.
I tried changing from SANBOOT to EXIT but that made it so chainloading failed on hosts that were working.
Switched it back and still having the issue. Still testing though.

Additionally are these settings supposed to be persistent in the gui after saving? because they’re not…

I’m still troubleshooting as it doesn’t happen on every host. But upgrading to the latest trunk (6285) and rebooting to make sure any and all related services got restarted didn’t do the trick and nor did editing the EXIT method.

My boot.php in the browser of a registered host looks like this

Thoughts?

I switched to GRUB_FIRST_FOUND_WINDOWS exit type and it seems to be working now.
However normal EXIT still caused a PXE chainloading failed error.
Is this a bug others are getting or is this a configuration issue?

@Arrowhead-IT The issue where it was displaying the wrong regmenu item setting is now fixed.

@Tom-Elliott This is true, it is indeed fixed because Tom is the best
