      FOG version 1.6.0-beta.5136, https enabled
      PXE works great with Wyse 5070 thin clients and Dell Optiplex 3000 thin clients.

      Tried my first 5060 today.

      Wyse 5060, BIOS 1.0J (2018-11-06), UEFI boot, Secure Boot disabled. PXE acquires DHCP, downloads EFI binary and autoexec.ipxe. Even an autoexec.ipxe containing only:

      #!ipxe
      echo HELLO
      sleep 30

      causes an immediate reboot. No requests for default.ipxe, boot.php, bzImage, or init.xz ever reach the FOG server. Same FOG server works perfectly with Wyse 5070 and Dell OptiPlex systems.

      I’ve tried handing out all the different *.efi devices in my /tftpboot dir, all do the same thing. I know this is a really old system, it’s just weird that it’s just rebooting so early in the ipxe process.

      Has anyone seen this before? THanks

        @ahaeder I’m still fighting this 5060 but I’ve made progress. When the bios is in Legacy mode (not UEFI) I got it to boot undionly.kkpxe and get to the fog pxe menu. I was even able to deploy an image to it successfully. The problem now is that although the pxe boot menu shows up, it can’t transition from there to booting off the hard drive. The default SANBOOT hangs at:

        Booting from SAN device 0x00
        Boot from SAN device 0x00 failed: Input/output error (https://ipxe.org/1d852039)
        Booting from SAN device 0x80

        The other options I have in the fog server for this system under Host BIOS exit type are:

        SANBOOT
        GRUB
        GRUB_FIRST_HDD
        GRUB_FIRST_CDROM
        GRUB_FIRST_FOUND_WINDOWS
        REFIND_EFI
        EXIT

        None of them work. They either immediately reboot, hang or just leave me at a grub prompt.

        I can boot directly off the newly imaged hard drive, but I can’t transition from pxe boot menu -> hard drive boot.
