Dnsmasq bios and uefi
-
@xutianhong said in Dnsmasq bios and uefi:
@george1421 im sorry make u confuse, cuz my english was not good. maybe can’t describe clearly.
We can work together to find an answer, so no problem. We will take it slow to understand each other.
-
@george1421 im not sure what happened. it’s looks like grub cant get cfg file?
it’s my boot process.
dhcp start @ 200
tftp & dnsmasq.proxymode start @ 226 only use pxe+grub not ipxe&refind
uefi client @ dhcp

@xutianhong what does the grub.conf look like?
Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved.

@xutianhong I say this because it appears from your directory tree there is no grub.cfg file.
-
@Tom-Elliott there no grub.cfg, only cobbler gen efidefault. ofcuz i copy efidefault to /grub.cfg & /boot/grub/grub.cfg, not work, same grub> msg.

@xutianhong and what does your grub line look like?
I would imagine it needs to look at the config file directly.
I don’t know if it can be done in dnsmasq but possibly:
pxe-service=BC_EFI,"BC_EFI","grub/grub-x86_64.efi --config-file=grub/efidefault",192.168.136.226 -
@xutianhong I have to ask are you using FOG or are you using FOG for pxe only, or are you not using fog and have a question about pxe booting?
I would ask why you do it this way? I would not use grub but the iPXE menu instead.
-
@george1421 im not using FOG. only question about pxe booting. use this cuz cobbler default env. im not add/del extra file to it. if default can work. i dont want change any thing.
-
@xutianhong OK understand, I was confused because I think you use FOG and doing this.
You can still do what you want if you look at it a bit differently. FOG uses a pxe boot loader called iPXE. That is similar to syslinux and grub. But iPXE is very feature rich.
You can do what you are looking for if you know how to program your config menus.
Here is my dnsmasq config file
# Don't function as a DNS server: port=0 # Log lots of extra information about DHCP transactions. log-dhcp # Set the root directory for files available via FTP. tftp-root=/tftpboot # The boot filename, Server name, Server Ip Address dhcp-boot=undionly.kpxe,,<fog_server_IP> # Disable re-use of the DHCP servername and filename fields as extra # option space.

@xutianhong So are you using FOG and Cobbler together, or only came upon the post from a google search about a dnsmasq question? (I’m still willing to try to help, but this should be clear.)
I don’t know you’re native language so I can’t really provide a translation to try to make this a little easier for you.

I found this, maybe it can help?

@Tom-Elliott @george1421 thank you, im came up upon the post from a google search about dnsmasq&pxe boot question.
this is not wok. screen show uefi setting menu. not grub> yet.pxe-service=BC_EFI,"BC_EFI",grub/grub-x86_64.efi --config-file=grub/efidefault,192.168.136.226this website advice used in my first post. but static network setting not useful.
https://github.com/openSUSE/kiwi/wiki/Setup-PXE-boot-with-EFI-Using-GRUB2thank you @george1421 i tried ipxe, found it’s very powerful. i was working on it to try combine with cobbler.
but it’s looks like redhat 7.3 have a kernel bug for ipxe uefi boot. http://forum.ipxe.org/showthread.php?tid=8243&pid=13314#pid13314
finally solved.i come from China.:bow_tone2: u know chinese?
thank you for ur help. both.~ 谢谢 -
@xutianhong I don’t know Chinese, but google has an awesome translate feature. It’s not perfect I understand, but should be clear enough to give an understanding of what we are trying to say.
我不懂中文，但google有一个很棒的翻译功能。 这是不完美的我明白，但应该清楚，以了解我们正在试图说的话

@Tom-Elliott google translate was good.
if have any problem, can i ask here again? -
@xutianhong I’m glad you have it working. Tom and I are very skilled with FOG. Since fog is built using many other linux parts we know those parts too. iPXE is a great tool if you want to use it.
FOG also has a great pxe boot menu tool built in. I know some people install FOG just for pxe booting and don’t use FOG for computer imaging purposes.
You may ask a question here, we will help if possible.
