      @dureal99d said in UEFI won boot tools via fog menu.:

      should I use fogs built in dhcp server

      Yes. The installer will set it up for you perfectly. Earlier in this thread, I described how to change your current server to do this.

      Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG!

        @Wayne-Workman is this a situation were I will have to disable dhcp on my router, or will they both work in tandem with each other.

          @dureal99d They will not work in tandem without expert configuration, and we don’t have time for that. That’s something you can mess around with after things are working.

            I know this thread has sparked somewhat of a up and down exhaustive debacle on if and how to make the efi load with the dns masq of ddwrt.

            This configuration right here is partially working and has allowed me to boot successfully a sony Lenovo laptop in uefi mode.

            although non of the Linux isos boot and no third party tools work at least its a step in the right direction, I think?

            If you look at the loading sequence it states something strange that I’m sure you pros can identify. Link up on net0..............Connection timed out??
            At any rate I am now wondering if I must create one of these entries for each type of .efi file ie. snp.efi etc.

            dhcp-match=set:efibc,option:client-arch,7
            dhcp-boot=tag:efibc,ipxe.efi,,192.168.1.109
            dhcp-match=set:i386-efi/ipxe.efi,option:client-arch,6
            dhcp-boot=tag:i386-efi/ipxe.efi,,192.168.1.109
            dhcp-match=set:efi-x86_64,option:client-arch,7
            dhcp-boot=tag:efi-x86_64,ipxe.efi,,192.168.1.109
            dhcp-match=set:efi-x86_64,option:client-arch,8
            dhcp-boot=tag:efi-x86_64,ipxe.efi,,192.168.1.109

                @dureal99d Can we see how you try to boot all these various tools?

                  @Quazz of course, do you need a video or a config file?

                      This is my entire config file. whats funny is the only 2 that will boot is Centos and fedora which are the 2 that gave me the most trouble before.

                          @dureal99d I think the main problem is most likely that the nfs location those boot options want to use isn’t being exported by your FOG server.

                          Check /etc/exports to confirm

                            @Quazz the files are being exported via nfs server of Ubuntu

                            /images *(ro,sync,no_wdelay,no_subtree_check,insecure_locks,no_root_squash,insecure,fsid=0)
                            /images/dev *(rw,async,no_wdelay,no_subtree_check,no_root_squash,insecure,fsid=1)
                            /images2 *(ro,sync,no_wdelay,no_subtree_check,insecure_locks,no_root_squash,insecure,fsid=2)
                            /images2/dev *(rw,async,no_wdelay,no_subtree_check,no_root_squash,insecure,fsid=3)
                            /var/www/html/bootimgs *(ro,sync,no_wdelay,insecure_locks,no_root_squash,insecure)
                            /opt/bootimgs *(ro,sync,no_wdelay,insecure_locks,no_root_squash,insecure)```

                              @dureal99d They need to have fsid assigned at the very least to work properly as far as I know.

                                    @dureal99d You’ll also need to run

                                    exportfs -a
                                    

                                    After that.

                                    Use

                                    showmount -e 127.0.0.1
                                    

                                    to confirm

                                        @dureal99d You’ll need to add subtree_check as well, otherwise any folders underneath it won’t be accessible.

                                            @dureal99d It’s trying to export /opt/bootimgs twice.

                                            Is it a symbolic link or something?

                                            Either way, it should probably work now, might need to restart NFS service, though.
