OK that mac has 3 network interfaces then. In your first post I would have expected the iPXE kernel to show the mac address of net0.
I would like you to update to the latest version of FOG, which is the development release of 1.4.0RC12 using this process: https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/Upgrade_to_trunk
I think there was a bug in 1.3.5 where it would only look at net0 and not test any other interfaces. Upgrading to a development release will also give you the newest fixes for FOG.

Je pense qu’il y avait un bug dans 1.3.5 où il ne regarderait que net0 et ne testerait aucune autre interface. La mise à niveau vers une version de développement vous donnera également les dernières corrections pour FOG.
I try to upgarde, but seem error … I think error is on a new mac, i check that, if somebody have a idea o/

That’s exactly it, I conclude that there is no solution currently
Thank’s for ur all reply !

@Warget I was just looking at the picture again, specifically at the build number for iPXE. In the picture the build number is (fdcdc), looking at the rom-o-matic site that version of ipxe is older than the last 20 commits.
With that in mind it would be interesting to know if an update ipxe kernel might solve this issue. I just looked on the fog github site and those ipxe kernels are a few months old. I’m wondering if the @Senior-Developers could provide the OP a direct link to both ipxe.efi and ipxe7156.efi from FOG 1.4.0RC13 (??)
@Warget The idea is to replace your existing iPXE kernels for uefi with the newer ones from the latest release of fog. My wish is that the newer kernels will solve your imac problem.

@Warget Are you sure you have the exact same model and firmware version?
@Tom-Elliott Thanks a lot for keeping up the discussion in the iPXE forums in March. Do you know if anyone ever filed a bug with Apple??
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)
Please support FOG if you like it: https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/Support_FOG

I don’t know if anybody filed a bug. Sorry. I’m not as active on the forums for ipxe as I am here so I’ll admit my “follow up” isn’t spot on or anything.
I still think it’s potentially something that we could fix at least if we knew enough between michael brown and us.

@george1421 I try to replace, dosen’t work
@Sebastian-Roth Yes I m sure
@Tom-Elliott Thank’s for ur intervention -
@Warget That is sad that pxe booting is not working.
We do have an option still for fog (the right answer is to get pxe booting working). If the mac is capable to usb boot into the FOS engine directly. We have to use this method sometimes when the UEFI firmware is faulty and pxe booting fails.

This method should work but there is one thing you must remember. For imaging, you must schedule a deployment task in the fog server before you usb boot FOS or you will get an error message.
I will IM you some additional information in a few minutes. Look for the chat icon in the FOG forum tool tray.

This community is just… waho…!
@george1421 Thank’s for ur proposition but… I think is not a FOG problem, it’s probably a mac problem… When I use a usb key :
(My connection is by RJ45, my RJ45 is ok, i try with a other pc)

@Warget Please confirm that you have the latest kernels and inits on that flash drive. That issue should have been resolved by the developers. What your posted WAS an issue with fog 1.4.0RC8 and before.
You can download the current kernels and inits from here:
https://fogproject.org/inits/init.xz https://fogproject.org/inits/init_32.xz https://fogproject.org/kernels/bzImage https://fogproject.org/kernels/bzImage32You can just download them from the above links using a windows computer. Then replace the files on the flash drive with these current ones. You will overwrite what is on the usb boot key.

George, realy thank’s for u all reply but it’s not work… seem error ^^!
I confirm i Use ur current kernels and inits

@Warget This should be working!!
You are getting a dhcp address so the network adapter is working, but FOS can’t reach the FOG server. The error message is a bit misleading but I remember this was an issue because of a bad check.
Just as an idea, did you remember to change / update the grub.conf file on the usb flash drive. You needed to give the IP address of the fog server so FOS knows how to find the FOG server. It was in the link I provided before: https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/7727/building-usb-booting-fos-image/4 in the section called: The final steps you MUST complete

Waho ! With the USB key it works, it is not optimal but … a thousand thanks really!
Fog Developper is realy great ! -
@Warget I’m glad you have it running now.
I agree it is not ideal, but until the iPXE folks can create a PXE boot compatible version for your hardware, this is the best we can do from the FOG Project side.
