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

fsid

fsid? i see add fsid=4 fsid=5 to the exports

@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)```

@Quazz that is my entire 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.

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

@Wayne-Workman @Senior-Developers @Moderators @Developers
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
dhcp-match=set:efi-x86_64,option:client-arch,9
dhcp-boot=tag:efi-x86_64,ipxe.efi,,192.168.1.109
dhcp-boot=undionly.kpxe,,192.168.1.109

@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.

@Sebastian-Roth @Wayne-Workman I think that its clear that I need to invoke a new setup to properly handle co-existing environment, going forward what is the recommended way to remedy this situation. should I use fogs built in dhcp server or setup a new one and if so what server type Linux, windows?

@george1421 I don’t know if ddwrt uses isc, I do know it uses dnsmasq. and it will onlt boot into uefi mode if I use the usb I made based on an tutorial I found on this forum.

and yes the main issue I’m having is none of the third party tools work in uefi mode. I am not sure if this is an issue with uefi or the software. but I assumed at least memtest would work and it fails as well.

I have however successfully captured a image.

@Sebastian-Roth @george1421 @Wayne-Workman @Senior-Developers id be willing to setup and configure another server “more than likely virtual” if I can still use ddwrt to provide dhcp to machines on my network and allow fog uefi and bios boot to co-exist. assuming it will make this process easier.

@Sebastian-Roth I did create one of those uefi usb boot scenarios as was postd here on the forum but without the usb device selected at boot, no uefi based client will boot to fog unless i boot in legacy

@Sebastian-Roth its so weird, this is my config as of right now dhcp-boot=undionly.kpxe,,192.168.1.109 dhcp-match=set:efi-x86_64,option:client-arch,7 dhcp-boot=tag:efi-x86_64,ipxe.efi,192.168.1.109,192.168.1.109

downloads ipxe.efi

yet if i take this line away dhcp-match=set:efi-x86_64,option:client-arch,7 away it will dowload the undioly.pxe file

@Sebastian-Roth said in UEFI won boot tools via fog menu.:

dhcp-boot=tag:efi-x86_64,ipxe.efi,192.168.1.109,192.168.1.109

no but i will try it

@Sebastian-Roth said in UEFI won boot tools via fog menu.:

@dureal99d That said I am wondering if you have another DHCP server in your network that is answering requests as well. Possibly a router or something that is interfering with what dnsmasq is sending?!?

I am using ddwrt and it is my dhcp server using its built in dnsmasq to attach clients to fog which works well in bios boot mode. no other dhcp exist.

@Sebastian-Roth said in UEFI won boot tools via fog menu.:

@dureal99d I might be able to help you with understanding how the TFTP URL (in your case tftp://192.168.1.1/default.ipxe) is build. You need to check out the embedded script that comes compiled into the binaries we provide - find the code here: https://github.com/FOGProject/fogproject/blob/dev-branch/src/ipxe/src-efi/ipxescript

i tried the sugggested dhcp-boot=tag:efi-x86_64,ipxe.efi,,192.168.1.109 and it worked but the other stuff like the memtest and all will not work just the basic functions and uefi laptops i have find a boot file but crash or pause at initializing ipxe devices

@Sebastian-Roth ok cool!!!

@george1421 said in UEFI won boot tools via fog menu.:

@dureal99d I started another thread where I’ve been documenting my travels with dnsmasq and uefi here: https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/8677/dnsmasq-bios-and-uefi

My config is pretty close. I can pxe boot a uefi system. Right now its hanging on the iPXE kernel initializing devices… But I did have to compile the latest dnsmasq program because the one for my distribution did not work even with the updated config file.

Looking at your config file I would have to say you need to update this line:
dhcp-boot=tag:efi-x86_64,ipxe.efi

to this:
dhcp-boot=tag:efi-x86_64,ipxe.efi,,192.168.1.109

Just like you did for the bios undionly line.

I will try that config and report back.

@george1421 at current my config looks like this

dhcp-match=set:efi-x86_64,option:client-arch,7
dhcp-boot=tag:efi-x86_64,ipxe.efi
dhcp-boot=undionly.kpxe,,192.168.1.109```

in the dnsmasq setting of ddwrt.

@george1421 NO, its at 192.168.1.109
