Unable to boot Fog from PXE
-
Both selinux and firewall is disable .
-
so you never see the iPXE part, just PXE then system booting?
-
Hi
Now i tried with virtual box server and i found that after getting the IP from DHCP Sever , it shows an error " DCHP failed hit “s” for the ipxe shell.
-
@swaroop The failed part is because it’s hitting the menu, but not exiting to boot to the first device yet.
Is it more likely your server timeout for pxe is just too short?
-
@Tom-Elliott No
-
@swaroop What is the PXE Menu timeout set to?
-
@Tom-Elliott i didn’t set it till now. can you please help to do that.
-
@swaroop Help do what?

@swaroop FOG Configuration Page->iPXE Boot Menu->Menu Timeout (in seconds):*

Can you ensure the network cable is good please? Either that or, if this is a VM make sure it’s not a natted connection, but a bridged one.
-
??? I know its late but, why am I seeing two different ipxe kernels running?
I looks like one ipxe kernel is chain loading to undionly.kpxe. And its the second kernel that is not picking up a dhcp address. Are we loading and older pxelinux.0 that is chainloading to a fog version of unidonly.kpxe? It makes me think that there is some old dhcp settings with a DHCP Proxy somewhere.

@george1421 Just my guess, this particular VM is virtual box.

Yes, Tom is right I think. Virtualbox is definitely using iPXE as PXE ROM. That’s why you see iPXE chainloading iPXE…
@swaroop Interesting that the first iPXE is able to get an IP via DHCP but the second is not. Can you please enable network tracing for this VM and upload the PCAP file to the forum here.

@Tom-Elliott Thanks a lot … it worked …
: -
@swaroop What exactly did you change? Please let us know so other users will find this when running into the same problem!!
-
@Sebastian-Roth as Tom guide me to remove that NATTED connection and only keep the Bridged connection in the Virtual Box and it worked .

Is there an error message displayed before it continues to the system? Something like PXE-E32 or similar?
I get that error message, I’m running build number 6985, and I’m getting dhcp from fog

@jdmg94 did you try what the OP shows fixed this?
