@george1421, it’s funny again. I scheduled a Deploy Task for the device. So it entered in a loop:
Suddenly, the computer began to deploy the image!!!
It’s sure I have connectivity issues, no?
@george1421 Yes. What I don’t understand is why it could boot on PXE, but goes to error other there? Before this, PXE error occurred at boot time, not after certain operation. It’s like PXE wants to re-register Client at the middle of the operation.
@Sebastian-Roth these are two images:
this image is from a computer I didn’t registered on Server, chosing Deploy Image from FOG PXE Menu
This other image is from the same computer, but here I registered on Server and attached a Deploy Basic Task.
@george1421, PXE boot client is not in the same subnet. Boot Client is at VLAN 12 (172.24.12.0/23) and FOG server is at Default VLAN (172.24.0.0/22). As I told before, I could do a Deploy over Legacy Boot, but errors in UEFI boot remain.

@Sebastian-Roth, yes I change my server. I installed in another distro (Fedora 30) and set IP 172.24.3.71, because I’m tired to deal with Ubuntu is FOG Enemy.

Hi,
I already faced situations about PXE chainloading error(https://forums.fogproject.org/post/120560), I never noticed this error after Images menu.
deploy image;Just after that, I face this error message:
http://172.24.3.71/fog/service/ipxe/boot.php... Connection reset (http://ipxe.org/0f0a6095)
Could not boot: Connection reset (http://ipxe.org/0f0a6095)
Could not boot: Connection reset (http://ipxe.org/0f0a6095)
Chainloading failed, his 's' for the iPXE shell; reboot in 10 seconds
Any new ideas? Why this error, if it could accept PXE boot normally before?
@george1421, great stuff! How couldn’t I see this before?
lol!!!
Well, I reinstalled it, and already applied what Elliot said. Let’s see if it will take things easy. Thanks!!
Hi, everyone!
I know that whenever FOG Web Interface shows this message when I try to access it:
it’s to time to reinstall it.
The problem is: this situation occurs every 2 months the average.
Is there another way to solve this unless reinstalling it?
@Sebastian-Roth it’s funny but… I decided change the client IP (added 172.24.12.49 into DHCP Exclusion Zone now client received 172.24.12.65), so it worked!
Maybe some lockout from FW or Core rules… but it’s working, as I figured out on other computer with some specification. Could you check PCAP of 172.24.12.65? It’s here: new PCAP, just to understand it, because I know, FW and Core rules are not the target of this forum
@Sebastian-Roth these are the answers, as followed:
userutil@moringa:~$ sudo iptables -L

@Sebastian-Roth , I did a capture directly from FOG server (172.24.3.144) by Wireshark, the troubled client is 172.24.12.49. Here you have it: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1oolDaPqrF4gFIzN8gRfIXrnyKC18ahHj
Hi,
I still have the ipxe.efi chainloading tantalizing me… I already posted another issue about it (11240) and it worked when I followed instructions to “connect” to a unmanaged switch over building switch “as a workaround”…
…we have here several types of computer with UEFI boot. Some of them is working properly. That’s its behavior:
on the other side, I have some computers will no work, they gave me this kind of error:
Any ideas? As I see, it’s not properly IPXE issue, because some UEFI are booting from IPXE… Is the second type of BIOS “lazy” to process IPXE Boot request??
I have this problem in FOG every 3 months aproximately. All I just do is to reinstall it and everything turns well, wihout any lose of data or settings.
@Sebastian-Roth, it’s funny. Fog deployed successfully all partitions, simply pressing ENTER after each breakpoint.
@Sebastian-Roth That’s what I did.
Follows Settings you suggested:
After usual messages, these are what I get. Here are the images:

@Sebastian-Roth, where will I add these Host Kernel Args?
Hi, guys!
I have several computers that had SSD issues, forcing assistance to change them by newer, raw disks.
Each computer has two-disks (sda-SSD 100Gb, sdb-SATA 500Gb). Only SSD was changed.
So I cannot deploy image on them due to it.
That’s the classical error message:
Image store corrupted, unable to locate MBR, no file found (MBRFileName)
Other message I got (in other moment):
Error trying to restore GPT partition tables (restorePartitionTablesAndBootLoaders)
I saw some ancient issues opened here, but nothing of them conclusive.
As workaround, I make a clear-Windows 10 formatting; after that, I can deploy successfully on them.
Do we have any updated news about it?
