@gwhitfield The portfast it’s enabled in all ports of the switch so at this moment i dont know what to do anymore. Thanks for all that helped me.

@Tom-Elliott

I changed the boot file to ipxe.pxe and i’ve got the same original problem.

So i downloaded the boot file ipxe.pxe using this command:

wget https://svn.code.sf.net/p/freeghost/code/trunk/packages/tftp/ipxe.pxe -O /tftpboot/ipxe.pxe

And the result was the same as using undionly.kpxe, stops at IPXE.

@Tom-Elliott

Now i’m using undionly.kpxe. I tried undionly.kkpxe but it did not work.
I will try ipxe.pxe.
This occurs in all machines.

Thanks

@Tom-Elliott

Fog stops in IPXE even when i just want to get to the menu.

@Tom-Elliott

The output of the file is:

@Tom-Elliott

I still don’t understand why computer reboots with the original undionly.kpxe that comes with the fog installer (1.2.0) and when i get the undionly.kpxe from https://svn.code.sf.net/p/freeghost/code/trunk/packages/tftp/undionly.kpxe
it works but i have to write exit in IPXE.
You can see it in this photo:

I will try to do spanning tree /port fast setting on the switch like @Sebastian-Roth said but i think this is not the reason.
Is there any script that i can do to automatically exit from IPXE?
Thanks

@Wayne-Workman

Today I installed another server with the same configurations and i noticed that the original problem was solved by getting another undionly.kpxe.

wget https://svn.code.sf.net/p/freeghost/code/trunk/packages/tftp/undionly.kpxe -O /tftpboot/undionly.kpxe

I originally thought that the problem was solved by upgrading the Kernel and changing the permissions of ipxe, but the problem was solved by getting another undionly.kpxe. But I don´t know if this boot file is reliable.

The only thing i know, is that after this, if i write exit in ipxe, the fog works. But i need to solve this.

The contents of boot.php that you asked (http://10.1.8.1/fog/service/ipxe/boot.php) are:

@Tom-Elliott

I Tom. I had to change the boot file again to undionly.kpxe.
At this time i don’t know how i solved this problem.
I tried two things:
I updated the kernel to version 3.19.3 and I changed permissions of ipxe:

         chmod -R 775 /var/www/html/fog/service/ipxe

The only problem is that i have write exit in ipxe to download/upload start.

Many Thanks

@Wayne-Workman

I changed the boot file to undionly.kkpxe and now it works but i have write exit in IPXE.
Do you know you to work around this?

@Wayne-Workman
Thanks i will try that.

@george1421

Thanks for the reply.
The computers are HP DC 7800. Bios is in legacy mode. The fog version is 1.2.0.
First i configured fog in a separated network and fog worked just fine with dhcp service. But in this network i have to use an existing dhcp server.

Hi,
I’m trying to configure fog in my school. My fog server is 10.1.8.1
The school has a dhcp server cisco with ip 10.1.8.254 that we do not control. It´s controlled by an external company of the government. We ask them to configure the dhcp server with bootfile undionly.kpxe and next server 10.1.8.1.
When client starts the iPXE initialises devices correctly but the computer reboots after Configuring(net0 00:23:7d:b8:a5:54)…
