HP EliteBook 840 G7 stuck at "rEFInd - Initializing..."

@tech04 When we have issues with refind we recommend to roll back to 0.11.0. I’m not sure its going to fix your issue but its worth a shot. Also make sure your firmware is up to date on the target computer.

What is happening is refind is stalling out trying to boot on that hardware. This is an issue specifically between refind and the hardware.

@george1421 Tried this, but received same result. Device imaged, but after rebooting brought up the ‘rEFInd - Initializing’ screen.

Are you saying to configure Option 67 with snponly.efi

yes

@sebastian-roth I’m sorry, I am unsure what you mean. Are you saying to configure Option 67 with snponly.efi?

@tech04 While it’s not directly stuck at iPXE you still might try using a different binary like snponly.efi just to see if it makes a difference.
