      Just to be clear.

      Is your issue booting virtual box or a physical system?
      It would be most helpful if this is a physical machine to use a mobile and capture a screen shot of the actual error.
      Might you have a dhcpProxy server (dnsmasq) running somewhere on your network?
      You’ve confirmed and your dhcp server option 66 is the ip address of your new fog server AND dhcp option 67 is undionly.kpxe (not pelinux.0)

      Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG!

        Check your DHCP option 66 and 67.

        Is the dhcp discovery tool ready for prime time?

            Ok you mentioned that you have one machine doing this? Is it safe to assume you have others working correctly? If so what is different (network wise) between the one that doesn’t work and the ones that do work?

                I’m just going to guess here.

                You have at least two DHCP Servers. One of those dhcp servers is responding faster than the other DHCP Server (which appears – from the info here) to be the one you “don’t” want to use.

                Why not just turn off the other dhcp server?

                  That, or, configure the other dhcp server to point at the new fog server as well.

                          @ITCC Does this system have a dhcp reservation set on your dhcp server?

                            have checked twice, no reservation.

                            Also works after pause, thought that would still resolve incorrect reservation info.

                                @ITCC And…

                                My next step is to confirm that everyone is in the same subnet then setup a packet capture into a pcap file so we can see where that alternate IP is coming from.

                                  Tom Elliott, got me thinking about a “copy” of our windows DHCP server on another DC, that was a backup to when we had issues.
                                  this DHCP is never to be switched on and it’s approx 3 years out of date.

                                  Guess what, somehow (someone) has authorised this scope.

                                  • Although, no stats showing used IP’s, when deactivated the PC continued beyond the loop.

                                  Thanks to everyone who helped.

                                      @Wayne-Workman I’m fairly sure Joe already is on it. Though of course Sebastian probably needs the “finishing” touches lol.
