    I’ve got some problems to make works boot PXE UEFI.
    I’ve got this problem with new dell lattitude 5580.

    BIOS configuration :

    Secure Boot - Secure Boot Enable - Disabled
    Advanced Boot Options - Enable Legacy Option ROMs
    System Configuration - Integrated NIC - Enable UEFI Network Stack - Enabled w/PXE
    Boot Sequence -
         Onboard NIC (IPV4)
         Windows Boot Manager
    

    I use FOG 1.5.0 (@IP : 192.168.39.243)
    I dont use the DHCPD server of FOG but my own DHCPD server (isc-dhcp-server).
    Before trying use UEFI PXE boot everything worked fine with only LEGACY .
    I followed this article : https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php?title=BIOS_and_UEFI_Co-Existence#Example_1
    And then add to my dhcpd.conf these lines :

    General options

    option space PXE;
    option PXE.mtftp-ip    code 1 = ip-address;
    option PXE.mtftp-cport code 2 = unsigned integer 16;
    option PXE.mtftp-sport code 3 = unsigned integer 16;
    option PXE.mtftp-tmout code 4 = unsigned integer 8;
    option PXE.mtftp-delay code 5 = unsigned integer 8;
    option arch code 93 = unsigned integer 16; # RFC4578
    

    Subnet options :

    next-server 192.168.39.243;
     class "UEFI-32-1" {
        match if substring(option vendor-class-identifier, 0, 20) = "PXEClient:Arch:00006";
        filename "i386-efi/ipxe.efi";
        }
        class "UEFI-32-2" {
        match if substring(option vendor-class-identifier, 0, 20) = "PXEClient:Arch:00002";
         filename "i386-efi/ipxe.efi";
        }
        class "UEFI-64-1" {
        match if substring(option vendor-class-identifier, 0, 20) = "PXEClient:Arch:00007";
         filename "ipxe.efi";
        }
        class "UEFI-64-2" {
        match if substring(option vendor-class-identifier, 0, 20) = "PXEClient:Arch:00008";
        filename "ipxe.efi";
        }
        class "UEFI-64-3" {
        match if substring(option vendor-class-identifier, 0, 20) = "PXEClient:Arch:00009";
         filename "ipxe.efi";
        }
        class "Legacy" {
        match if substring(option vendor-class-identifier, 0, 20) = "PXEClient:Arch:00000";
        #filename "undionly.kkpxe";
        filename "ipxe.pxe"; 
        }
    

    The computer boot PXE correctly and i’ve got the PXE menu.
    But after that when i choose “Boot from hard disk”, i’ve got the
    “chainloading failed…” error message.
    I cant understand what is the problem.
    Does someone could help me ?

      As you ask sometime to give the result of this command :
      http://192.168.39.243/fog/service/ipxe/boot.php?mac=10:65:30:64:39:54

      It’s the mac address of the problematic computer
      Here is the result

        As i saw that host had this message : host is pending approval
        I was able to approve it (qwerty keyboard…)
        Then i can see the dell computer in fog and see that it has more than one Mac address.
        Could it be the problem ?

          You can change the “Boot from hard disk” method globally, per group or per host.

          Change EFI Exit Type from sanboot to something like rEFInd

                @plegrand Clients that boot from hard disk after the menu use different mechanisms. In FOG we call this exit type. You can configure the exit type used per host and globally. Please check this host’s settings and try different types to see which one works for this client in UEFI mode.

                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)

                  @sebastian-roth @Quazz
                  I tryed
                  Sanboot : loop in menu
                  REFIND_EFI : launch a strange windows and stuck on dell logo
                  exit : chainloading failed…

                  Do i have to try GRUB option ?

                  GRUB_FIRST_HDD : loop in menu
                  GRUB_FIRST_FOUND_WINDOWS : loop in menu

                    I tryed with different type without success.
                    Then i configured all computers with legacy boot.
                    Then no more problem 😉

                      @plegrand UEFI implementations can be a real pain. It’s meant to be Kind of universal but everyone is just doing his/her own thing. So some UEFI clients work great while others just don’t want to play nicely. There is not much we can do about it. Well, you can try using rEFInd and start playing with the config file. If you are lucky it’s justa matter of finding the right options.
