    • RE: PXE Boots one one desktop but not another

      Another interesting little tidbit. In FOG when I got to Other Information and attempt to set a master password an error message appears
      “PXE menu update failed. Unable to connect to tftp server”

      FYI - I received this message yesterday and did stop and restart the tftp server via Terminal by typing in sudo stop tftpd-hpa and sudo start tftpd-hpa

      Hello Chad,
      There is no file except Default in /tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/
      What other information can I provide?

      That was awesome! Now the .12 machines are able to get to the FOG menu but there is still ONE issue. I was able to register the host but imaging failed.
      “Unable to connect to tftp server”
      is the error now.

      Almost there 🙂

      No, I don’t even get the FOG menu. It errors out trying to find pxelinux. I believe the error is No Image File Found.

      The gateway for those which will not PXE boot is a .12 address of course and .10 for the ones that will PXE boot.

      The same DHCP server supports both. I verified that one right off 🙂
      Thanks for helping Chad. I really need it!

      Yes, that is the exact scenario.

      The silence is deafening.

    • RE: PXE Boots one one desktop but not another

      Hello Chad,
      Yes I do have a DHCP server which (if it matters) does have a 192.168.10.* address. There is no problem whatsoever accessing network resources, etc just can get machines with this 192.168.12.* address to PXE boot. Image file not found. So I am assuming that something else needs to be set on my FOG server.

    • PXE Boots one one desktop but not another

      Fresh install, the second time I’v had to do this, of Ubuntu 11.04 and current FOG.
      After the install I took my master image computer and successfully booted into PXE, completed host registration and inventory, assigned a task to upload the image, all good.

      Then when trying to deploy the image to a brand new HP desktop of same make model etc I can not get it to PXE boot. Here is what I have noticed that may be an issue. The IP address of the FOG server, DNS, DHCP etc all are 192.168.10.* but the company does also deply 192.168.12.* addresses.

      The failing desktop DOES have a 192.168.12.* address. I’ve changed it to a static IP address of 10.192.168.** but even then it will not boot into PXE. I have manually registered the desktop into FOG and it does not resolve.

      One thing that I did during the FOG setup is to set the Subnet/netmask to 255.255.255.0 maybe it should be 255.255.0.0 to be able to resolve those machines with the .12 address? If so I can’t figure out how to change it in the FOG configuration.

      Any help, please give specific instructions, would be greatly appreciated.
