LENOVO M72E
-
We have a ticket in with IBM (Lenovo) for this. They have replicated the problem, and are passing to the Product Engineering Group to propose a solution.

Paul - if/when you get any news from Lenovo, would you be so kind as to post it here? Thanks!:D

Sure no problem

Guys,
Latest update is that this is with the BIOS engineering team, who are working on the issue

I had the same issue with Lenovo systems… What I did was go into the BIOS and disable UEFI. I selected “Legacy Mode” and it booted up just fine.

Hi,
try this in your default file:
[CODE]LABEL fog.local
TEXT HELP
Boot from the local hard drive.
If you are unsure, select this option.
ENDTEXT
MENU DEFAULT
MENU LABEL Boot from hard disk
KERNEL chain.c32
APPEND hd0 0[/CODE]instead of:
[CODE]LABEL fog.local
localboot 0
MENU DEFAULT
MENU LABEL Boot from hard disk
TEXT HELP
Boot from the local hard drive.
If you are unsure, select this option.
ENDTEXT[/CODE]It’s possible that you have to copy the chain.c32 from a syslinux archive to your tftp root folder, i integrated fog into an existing default menu, i use the above code to boot first hdd with my menu.

I am also having this issue, I have flashed bios to the newest, I have disabled UEFI, and have attempted the above fix by Greetz x23 and it still hangs at booting from local disk. When I did the modification above, it hangs at the Fog gui menu… Any more suggestions? I have 60 PC’s to deploy ASAP.

You probably need a BIOS update to fix the pxelinux boot to “localboot 0”. Have you asked Lenevo about this issue?
I found this page that looks interesting: [url]http://www.syslinux.org/wiki/index.php/Hardware_Compatibility[/url]

Also don’t be afraid to try local boot 0x80

Just for information,
I have updated Lenovo Thinkcentre 72 to the latest available BIOS : F1KT58AUS (dated 2013-11-28) and the problem remains :
Can’t boot from HD if PXE has been selected first.
