      Not yet. I’m pulling an image from it right now.

      But I did try snponly.efi and it was unhappy.

          I’m hoping to acquire a ThinkPad OneLink+ to RJ45 Adapter ( pn: 4X90K06975 ) which should leverage the Yoga’s onboard ‘Intel® Ethernet Connection I219-V’ through the OneLink+ connector to see how that pans out.

            @sudburr Please let us know when you succed using this adapter! As well it would be great to know which NIC chip is in that adapter… so I can add it to the wiki.

            Web GUI issue? Please check apache error (debian/ubuntu: /var/log/apache2/error.log, centos/fedora/rhel: /var/log/httpd/error_log) and php-fpm log (/var/log/php*-fpm.log)

              I finally got my hands on a Lenovo ThinkPad OneLink+ to RJ45 Adapter ( model SC10J34224 ).

              Using FOG RC10, kernel 4.7.3, it connects and fogs quite happily in UEFI mode using ipxe.efi and Legacy mode using undionly.kpxe.

              Tested on a Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga 260 and a Lenovo ThinkPad 13.

                @sudburr Thank you for posting back there is another FOG user that is having a problem with similar hardware. Your insights may be valuable with his issue too.

                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!

                  Revisiting this using the newly released 1.51 BIOS and these settings:

                  UEFI/Legacy Boot = BOTH
                  UEFI/Legacy Boot Priority = Legacy First
                  CSM Support = YES
                  Secure Boot = disabled
                  

                  I am able to undionly.kpxe boot via the Lenovo ThinkPad OneLink+ to RJ45 Adapter ( model SC10J34224 ).

                  Atttempts to undionly.kpxe boot the Lenovo ThinkPad USB 3.0 Ethernet Adapter ( Realtek RTL8153 USB Ethernet Controller (xHCI) v2.00 (05/20/15) ) results in detection and iPXE loading, but hanging at:

                  iPXE initialising devices...
                  

                  Strangely this same setup now works happily on the Lenovo ThinkPad 13 with BIOS 1.15, so there is something odd about the Yoga 260.

                  Booting instead with a UEFI USB with ipxe.efi or snp.efi at least, works if I change the BIOS setting:

                  UEFI/Legacy Boot Priority = UEFI First
                  

                  My intent then is to USB boot, but I can only find instructions for UEFI for USB booting. I’d like to test .*pxe booting by USB. Is this possible and how?

                    It looks like finding a way to .KPXE USB boot is moot since playing directly with the DHCP results in:

                    undionly.pxe
                    = fails through to hdd

                    undionly.kpxe
                    = hangs at iPXE initialising devices …

                    undionly.kkpxe
                    = hangs at bg.png 25%

                    ipxe.pxe , ipxe.kpxe , ipxe.kkpxe
                    = only looks for link up on net0 (the onboard nic) twice

                    ipxe.krn
                    = hangs after loading

                    realtek.pxe , realtek.kpxe , realtek.kkpxe
                    = exits after loading

                      It’s possible. ipxe’s website has a quickstart area that has an image you can burn to cd or USB, and you can boot from that. Of course, in the chainloading area you could replace that with the file on your fog server /tftpboot/default.ipxe and I’m also sure you could replace the actual file they are using with one from the FOG server too so that it just looks for default.ipxe on it’s own.

                          @Wayne-Workman But what I’m really looking for is a FOG-specific answer to building a Legacy Boot USB.

                          To build a UEFI USB it’s a simple matter of formatting a key to FAT32, active, then copy your .efi of choice to /efi/boot/bootx64.efi.

                          Is there an equally simple solution for a .*pxe and what is it?

                            I can’t say I’m an expert on this, and @george1421 probably knows how to do this already. But I would think you’d create a partition on a usb drive that is marked as bootable using fdisk and then format that partition fat32, and then take those for files from ipxe’s image and put them there, and just modify them as needed. Like changing out the kernel file with the desired rom file, and replacing the script with the stuff from default.ipxe.

                              All four good USB-based .efi solutions now hang .

                              bzimage... ok
                              init.xz... ok
                              then nothing

                                  I suppose you could also try working-RC-26 files. I updated ipxe files yesterday I believe.

                                    @sudburr I guess I would have to ask the question, how many of these weird systems that will not pxe boot do you have to deal with? The answer may be to just dig a hole and fill it with these devices.

                                    For efi devices building a boot drive is pretty simple. It would also be interesting to see if you can skip iPXE entirely by using grub to boot into FOS via https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/7727/building-usb-booting-fos-image

                                        @sudburr Have you tried the magical 7156 version that Tom talked about? That actually is a legacy iPXE kernel that seems to work well with the surface pros.
