        @dfuriet There is another forum user that currently has a different issue with Macs and FOG, but it appears that he has been able to pxe boot Macs in the past. I don’t have personal experience with Macs. https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/9269/imac-27-ipxe-boot

        But I find it really strange that your system just freezes and the iPXE kernel fails to initialize devices or anything. Does the Mac console display the iPXE banner text.

        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!

            @dfuriet Will you provide a clear screen shot of the failure?

                    @dfuriet I think we need the exact model of your iMac to be able to help any further. Please have a look on this website and tell us the exact model you have: http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/imac/index-imac.html

                    To identify your iMac you can look up important system information via Apple Menu -> About This Mac -> System Report. And while you have this window open may I ask you to also take a screenshot of the Hardware -> Ethernet Cards view (https://www.tonymacx86.com/attachments/fake-screenshot-png.124954/) and post it here.

                    The better we know your exact model and ethernet card the more we are able to help by digging through the net and even ask the iPXE developers to help - definitely not the first time I’ve done this!

                    Web GUI issue? Please check apache error (debian/ubuntu: /var/log/apache2/error.log, centos/fedora/rhel: /var/log/httpd/error_log) and php-fpm log (/var/log/php*-fpm.log)

                        @dfuriet I have been ill in bed for a couple of days. Sorry for the delay. In the iPXE boot screen you posted I see net1 while it usually starts counting with zero. So I guess there is another network card (most probably wireless) in that iMac, right? Although I can’t see one in the System Report picture you posted. Can you post another picture with the details of the wireless adapter?

                        Web GUI issue? Please check apache error (debian/ubuntu: /var/log/apache2/error.log, centos/fedora/rhel: /var/log/httpd/error_log) and php-fpm log (/var/log/php*-fpm.log)

                            I have a new iMac (imac17,1) with another ipxe problem :
                            On ipxe boot there are no freeze, like my imac14,1, but net0 cannot link up. See picture.

                            I have no problem, when macOS is loaded : IP address is comming with isc dhcp. Network cable connected correctly.

                            My new iMac17,1 have same Broadcom 57766-A1 and same wifi card on my iMac14,1

                              @dfuriet I have not forgotten about this. Just time is a bit short at hand at the moment.

                              Seems like we have another one with the same issue. He also posted in the FOG forums but as well took the issue to the iPXE developers forum already: http://forum.ipxe.org/showthread.php?tid=8296

                              So the iMac17,1 definitely has issues. Not exactly sure if a fix would work for the iMac14,1 as well. Nevertheless I think it’s worth to focus on the iMac17,1 for now.

                                @Sebastian-Roth I would prefer my imac14,1 work with fog… My iMac17,1 is showed on this topic as a example.

                                  @dfuriet The messages appear clear to me. At least in the last picture. Essentially, it’s unable to bring the nic up to actually try and use it.

                                  Have you tried entering the iPXE shell and just waiting for about 30 sends, then try to configure by running the command dhcp?

                                    @dfuriet Did you see the postings in the iPXE forum? We are trying to gather more information and surely hope to fix things for both iMac14,1 and iMac17,1 but it will be a long way I suppose.

                                    Could you try out something for us? As Tom said, could you enter the shell when you see the message on screen (“DHCP failed, hit 's' for the iPXE shell; ...”). There type the following commands and take a picture:

                                    ipxe> dhcp
                                    ...
                                    ipxe> ifstat
                                    

                                    After the first command (dhcp) you’ll need to wait for some seconds and might see the same errors as before. The type the ifstat command and take a picture of it all.

                                    Web GUI issue? Please check apache error (debian/ubuntu: /var/log/apache2/error.log, centos/fedora/rhel: /var/log/httpd/error_log) and php-fpm log (/var/log/php*-fpm.log)

                                      On my iMac14,1, I can’t go into the menu because there a no errror showing, only banner text :

                                      iPXE initialising device...ok

                                      then crashed with nothing else 😞

                                      Sometime I have more, like my first (reversed) picture

                                      My second picture is on a iMac17,1, but I don’t have it anymore

                                        Immediately after banner text is displayed, Ethernet Card power off a few seconds, then Ethernet Card power on… It’s at this time that ipxe crash

                                          Hello,

                                          I have exactly the same problem !
                                          Yesterday, I update one iMac with apple store. When finished I Tried to upload image and can’t boot on PXE. It’s freezing.

                                          I tried this morning to download image on another iMac and it works.

                                          I think it’s a bios update in the lasts macOs updates who makes the problem …
