bz.image freeze during capture on Lenovo ThinkBook 15 G2
-
Hi,
I tried to capture a new image for deployment, but the capture doesn’t go far and get stuck like on the picture. I searched solutions for resolving this problem but all the manipulations i tried were not useful and doesn’t change anything.
It would be appreciated if someone get an idea for resolving this.

Try updating the kernel in the server config?
-
@llamapie Already done
-
@baptistepDS Have you tried other iPXE binaries like snp.efi or ipxe.efi?
-
@sebastian-roth Yes, before trying with snponly.efi, we were using ipxe.efi, and with it, it’s worst, the installation fails before reaching bzimage.
-
@sebastian-roth I just tried snp.efi, and get stuck again on bzimage
-
Nobody have a suggestion ?
-
@baptistepds Two suggestions.
- Make sure the bios (firmware) is up to date on this computer.
- See if updating iPXE resolves this issue: https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/15826/updating-compiling-the-latest-version-of-ipxe

@george1421 I’ve tried last week your documentation without results. And i have update my bios with lenovo system update. I’m getting stuck again with the same freeze at bzimage.
-
@baptistepds Well then we do find that sometimes there is no hope because of a hardware conflict between ipxe and the firmware. We do have one last method to boot bzImage directly fro a usb flash drive. You will lose multicasting and “Deploy image” functions because iPXE isn’t there, but you will still be able to unicast an image onto this computer.
Read through the tutorial completely so you understand the caveats and also look at the forum chat for some additional hints: https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/7727/building-usb-booting-fos-image
