if you are keen. But as you were able to get around this by using a different NIC it’s probably not worth the time and effort.

I’ve contacted Lenovo about this and here’s their answer:

"We are currently working with Marvell and the developers of iPXE to update the iPXE source code to include the Marvell NIC driver for the P620. Unfortunately, this hasn’t been a quick and easy fix and we are currently waiting on the iPXE developers to pick up the updated patch code provided by Marvell in their official iPXE release. In the meantime, I can provide you with a test iPXE image that should work for you on the P620 platform. "

I haven’t got the time to test is test iPXE but I’ll stick to the 20$ network card add I rarely install more than 5 computers at a time so I’ll be fine this way.

Thanks again Sebastian for your help,

@sebastian-roth Sorry for the delay!!! My HR decided I needed more jobs lol

So I was forced to push back my ipxe debugging. Between two users I’ve installed a Startech (20 box) 1Gb ethernet card on my Lenovo P620 and put snponly.efi (fog) file in the option 067 on my DHCP and now I can deploy.

I wish I knew how to put the AQtion card drivers in those Kernel, it’s always a Driver bug

Thank you very much for answering all my noob question tho !!

If you want me the sent you drivers files or something to update Kernel just let me know, I’ll be happy to send you whatever you need to update FOG

Best regards!

@sebastian-roth Well that was easier than I thought!

Here’s the file. But I’ve filtered the result a bit with this filter: eth.addr == e0:4f:43:e6:4a:3e

Because there was a lot of stuff running on my laptop but just tell me if you prefer more detailled logs. But I would like to send the complete log to your email and not post it on the forum please.

Lenovo-PortMirrorred.txt

@sebastian-roth I will check what I can do with some “port mirroring” maybe!

@sebastian-roth Sadly I don’t have any at my office

@sebastian-roth Hello, just a minor correction: It’s a Lenovo Desktop P620 and the network card is a: Marvel AQtion 10Gbit Network Adapter

(two packets sent and two packets received) but then fails to go ahead?!

I can’t ping anything, not even my gateway. I only get timeout.

@sebastian-roth said in Trying to "Push" CentOS7 image on Lenovo P620:

o DHCP packets nor any further TFTP request

My fault I filtered my capture, here’s one with no filter in it.

Hope it does the job!

No filter this time

@sebastian-roth Here’s my wireshark capture file

Cheers!

n’t even need to copy all of the new compiled binaries. Just copy over the new ipxe.efi and see if that makes a difference. If not also try the new

Saddly I don’t have much luck with new compiled efi files

I’ll install Wireshark on my FOG server and see what I can track,

I’ll be back!
