FOG .33b PXE Boot woes
-
Restarted the service and now it will boot back into iPXE. Now it stops at [I]/default.ipxe… No such file or directory ([url]http://ipxe.org/2d12603b[/url]) [/I]This reads to me like a permissions issue since the file is in the /tftpboot directory.
-
Changed ownership of /tftpboot to fog user and group and restarted the services and no change.
-
can you retrieve undionly.kpxe by tftp from another computer from command line?
-
Yes, I am able to retrieve undionly.kpxe and default.ipxe via TFTP.
-
can you verify that both the undionly.kpxe and default.ipxe are in the same directory and their permissions are 644
-
Both files are in the /tftpboot folder and are set to 644. Still throwing the same error. I currently have fog as the owner of the /tftpboot directory, should i change this back to root?
-
so long as the file can be read anonymously, ownership doesn’t matter
-
Good point. Is there another config file somewhere that deals with the path to the default.ipxe? I assume it just looks for it in the /tftpboot directory but perhaps this isnt the case?
-
the undionly.kpxe file automatically searches for default.ipxe in the same directory as itself.
changing that setting requires recompiling undionly.kpxe -
Not sure if this will help, but here is a screen shot of what I am getting on the client PC.

Try this:
[code]sudo ln -s /tftpboot/undionly.kpxe /var/lib/tftp/undionly.kpxe
sudo ln -s /tftpboot/default.ipxe /var/lib/tftp/default.ipxe[/code]Restart your client and report.
-
I had to create the tftp directory in /var/lib. After running the commands and rebooting the client i have the same message on screen. I also tried creating the links to /var/lib/tftpboot since that was an existing directory, though that also had no effect.
I also just tried with a newer client and receive the same error.

Hi guys,
I’ve been reading this thread and just want to report that I have the same problem.
Here is the screenshot
[ATTACH=full]1338[/ATTACH]Is there a solution?

Is the tftp server correct?
Does the file undionly.kpxe exist in /tftpboot/?
Have you copied the contents of /tftpboot/* to /var/lib/tftp/?
