DNSMASQ setup help
-
@mati-92 the sym-link for the undionly.0 file points to a nonsense location.
Delete that and recreate it.
rm -rf /tftpboot/undionly.0 ln -s /tftpboot/undionly.kpxe /tftpboot/undionly.0 -
@Wayne-Workman tried the last thing you suggested and i tried it again and still not working.
-
Can you run this (I apologize but I need to make sure you got it right).
ls -lahRt /tftpbootAnd please provide another photo of any error you’re seeing when trying to network boot.
-
-
I’d like for you to run these commands and then provide another screen shot of the output of the below command.
rm -f /tftpboot/undionly.0 rm -f /tftpboot/undionly.kpxe.0 -
-
@mati-92 Does it work now?
-
@Wayne-Workman im afraid not i tried it from a physical computer sat on the network and i get tftp open timeout error
-
-
@mati-92 There’s a typo.
unionly.0 should be undionly.0 MISSING A LETTER D
-
@Wayne-Workman said:
ln -s /tftpboot/undionly.kpxe /tftpboot/undionly.0
i checked through all my commands ran from today and edited this one
ln -s /tftpboot/undionly.kpxe /tftpboot/undionly.0 ( i had forgotten the d off the last bit. i ran tried booting from my other virtual machine same error
-
@mati-92 Now try this:
ln -s /tftpboot/undionly.kpxe /tftpboot/undionly.kpxe.0 -
im afriad i am still getting this error message … connection timed out
-
@mati-92 make sure your firewall is off. See if you can tftp and get the undionly.kpxe.0 file. Examples of both of those are here: https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/Troubleshoot_TFTP

i have no setup in fedora 22 server, i followed the article you left me with last night and this is what i am getting when trying to boot to pxe. im using vm player now as i was having issues in virtualbox installing fedora.
-
I helped @mati-92 get past the dnsmasq issues via TeamViewer. however the virtual host he’s trying to network boot is trying to get default.pxe from a strange IP address instead of the virtual fog server.
ideas?
-
Is the virtual fog server’s network bridged or natted?
-
It was originally NAT’d but I couldn’t figure out why the virtual host was trying to pull default.pxe from the weird IP, so I tried to set it up as bridged and that did not work out at all.
Then I tried to get DHCP installed on the fog server and then put it on an isolated virtual lan but I couldn’t get DHCP to even install.
I am in over my head on this one - I suggested he install on physical software and try then with dnsmasq but he is saying Fedora 22 doesn’t work on his G5 server which I have reservations about… I’m not sure where to go from here - a fresh pair of eyes are needed.
-
Morning just a quick update I managed to install fedora 22 on my poweredge sc1425 install fog tried to boot but no look.
-
been thinking today that i might give up on this, not as easy as it looks. having many issues.
