PXE3B: TFTP error - flie not found
-
This is my first time installing FOG. I have a Lenovo 3000 GS530 laptop being used as my server running Ubuntu 14.04 with FOG 1.0.1 installed. I have another Lenovo 3000 GS530being used as a Client. I have enabled options 66 and 67 on the DHCP server.
I get an error every time the Client boots that reads the following:
PXE1 - file not found
PXE3B - tftp error - file not foundThen the computer boots to windows. What is going on? Help please.

this sounds to me like either the DHCP options 66 or 67 are set incorrectly, or the tftp service on the fog server is not running.
your options should be set to your fog server’s ip, and undionly.kpxe -
It was. 67 should have been to a different file undionly.kxpe not pxelinux.0
-
I’m getting the same issue and i have my dhcp set to undionly.kxpe
-
if it is set to undionly.kxpe, that’s your problem. it should be undionly.kpxe

I’m getting this same issue. Can someone describe or give me some more guidance on the 66/67 thing? Thanks!

Options 66 and Option 67 are specific for Windows DHCP really, but the intent is more or less the same.
Option 66 is the IP Address of the FOG Server (or wherever you’re trying to boot from)
Option 67 is the filename on the FOG Server (or whatever the file is)
On linux dhcp server the Option 67 is really just the point to the file also known as next-server.
Hopefully this helps.

What is the file name without me making any changes?
-
FOG 0.33 and up use undionly.kpxe
FOG 0.32 and below used pxelinux.0 -
That might explain it. I’ll try it tomorrow and report back. Thanks!

Well, what you gave me fixed that issue, but now I have machines that will get stuck initializing PXE at boot. When I switch it back to our old server (on the DHCP server that is) then they work just fine.
I’ll keep investigating.

THere is a known issue with some systems, and we’re trying track down the culprit and/or figure out what will fix it.
If you’re having problems with this, you can try the included undionly.kpxe.INTEL from the svn repo’s.
-
Do you have any instructions on how to include that?

Nevermind, went and found it in another thread. I’ll move my responses there.
