Hi, i have some several issues (this thread: https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/8323/several-problems-with-surface-pro-4)
Had that problem with the dark screen too. I’ve used the bootfile ipxe7156.efi then the problem with the dark screen disappeard. (still have other problems, but i think you should give it a try 
)
Here are the steps wich resolved the issues:
@jhuesser said in Several problems with Surface Pro 4:
- If i select an entry the display just goes dark, nothing happens
Use intel7156.efi
- If i select
Boot from harddiskREFIND_EFI starts, i need to press a key and then windows tries to boot but get stuck at the windows logo. (no problem if i boot without pxe)
Use intel7156.efi
- If a task is assigned it get stuck at
bzImage... ok init.xz... ok
Use intel7156.efi
- Perform Full Host Registration and Inventory & Quick registration doesn’t work (Select menu entry -> screen goes dark; Quick registration -> chainload failed).
manually add the host and add has_usb_nic=1 to the host settings. (also for dhcp error in FOS)

@george1421 It doesn’t recognize the keyboard at this point. (…)
Use an USB-Keyboard with an USB-Hub
@Sebastian-Roth Am I right, if i used the USB keyboard at the beginning, there is no need to modify the initrd to remove the keyboard interaction?

lshwlsusblspcidmesgPersonally, dmesg will probably be of more use as even if the kernel doesn’t have drivers we should see the device in the list on load up.
Should i execute dmesg on a ubuntu bootet on the SP4 or in the FOS Engine?
