Chainloading failed

[Sebastian Roth]

@Wayne-Workman So your machines booting/chainloading again properly?

@Sebastian-Roth I am also on r7843 (Debian 8), and recieving "chainloading failed, hit ‘s’ " during the pxe boot. however if I set a download task, it will correctly perform the task

[Sebastian Roth]

Ok, so I got Wayne wrong I suppose. Sounded like he had upgraded from r7843 to ??? after seeing the problem and fixed it. @falko Thanks for pointing me to read his post again. I am pretty sure @Tom-Elliott will fix this soon.

[Tom Elliott]

Should be fixed, thanks for reporting.

Had the same problem.
Chainloading works fine r7845 (Ubuntu 14.04).

@Tom-Elliott thanks, all working for me

Updated to 7845, chainloading seems to fail if host is not registered.

I tried from a remote site using the location plugin. the host was manually entered. It worked. I was able to get in the boot menu, I did a host unregister. the host removed itself, then it would not pxe back to the boot menu. Complained about the chainloader. Manually added, worked again. I also tried this at the Main’s site using a VM. I network booted from the VM and being it was not manually registered, it gets the chainloader error. As soon as I manually add the host to FOG, it works perfectly.

@adukes40

after confirming it to be working below, we got the call to an IT suite (unregistered in FOG) and this room had the chainloading isse

[Tom Elliott]

Confirmed, found and fixed for unregistered hosts.

@Tom-Elliott just updated Main and node. Chainloader seems to be working for registered and unregistered hosts now. Was able to register from remote location. Thanks.

Hopefully Falko has the same results

@adukes40 all working well, thanks Tom
