Problem on HP ProBook 650g2

[Tom Elliott]

@plegrand Would it be safe, for now, to solve the thread?

I ran into a similar issue with HP ProBook 645 G2 and the fix for us was to use the ipxe.pxe file as well.

I also saw the “net 0 [00:00:00:00:00:00]” messages, but I think this is the nic’s Bluetooth adapter only translated off the nic with an invalid mac address as there’s nothing for it to connect to.

@Tom-Elliott
i think also is the bluetooth adapter

The thread is solved for me except “Fatal Error, unable to find size data out on”
But i think this problem come from the original partitionning (new HP computer with a lot of partition)
I have to reinstall it with the good number of partition.
As we saw that before i think it will solve the problem ?

Big, enormous thanks again for Fog and your precious help .

I think so too, but yours is definitely not the first of this issue being reported. When I get home tonight (I’m on EST) i will test an upload just to ensure all is well. If I find any issues with the init’s I’ll try fixing and posting info on them. Thanks for your time too.

@Tom-Elliott
Hello
do you want i solve this thread ?

[Tom Elliott]

@plegrand I can solve it, just wanted to make sure it was “okay” to do so.

@Tom-Elliott i 'm making a lot of tests with my new configuration (ipxe) and it seems everything works fine except : Warning using legacy NIC wrapper on 00:00:00:00:00:00 message.
Then everything it’s ok !!

Just for information here is my new menu for ipxe (default.ipxe)

@plegrand The first nic weirdness is expected as I said. Using ipxe.pxe should work, and as you and I both suspect I still think it’s the bluetooth part. Unfortunately I don’t think it’s something your or I can fix. As long as all still ‘works’ after that point, you should be fine though.

@x23piracy
“we have a lot of this probook’s 650 G2 and they are working fine for me.”

Just to be sure :

you havent this message :
Warning using legacy NIC wrapper on 00:00:00:00:00:00

Are you using ipxe.pxe or undionly.kpxe ?
If you use “undionly.kpxe”, have you got problem with computer with Realtek RTL8168D/8111D NIC

Thanks for your answer
