Using the latest experimental fos kernel I am able to deploy via task without issues. https://github.com/FOGProject/fos/releases/tag/EXP_20240720

Thank you all for your help in getting this to work.

This can be marked as Solved

@rodluz After disabling VT and X2APIC Intel x2APIC Mode disabling these settings and the system properly deploying an image what setting in the kernel would need to change to allow for the system to deploy properly without having to modify the BIOS settings? I think this may be easier said then done but want to start looking at it.

@rodluz I got it working. I was able to boot into the debug kernel from the usb and was able to get it to boot into the deploy image.

I disabled Virtualization, VT-d, and X2APIC

I was missing the X2APIC setting once that was disabled it started working. thank you all for your help in getting this working.

@rodluz thank you for your current help on this. I have tried both the 2 new images you have provided and they are both failing back at the booting kernel that I see when I try to boot the original kernels off the USB drive. Would it be helpful for you to be able to remotely access the system and login to it?

@rodluz These both give me the same error after loading the kernel. Error: kernel doesn’t support EFI handover. This is the same error I was getting with dist 2 and 3. dist 1 did not give this error.

@rodluz Are you able to try enabling virtualization in the kernel to see if it fixes it for SaturTP maybe it will help me my issue as well.

@rodluz I have tried all 3 kernels the dist1 has the same issue. dist2 and 3 show the following message.

Then they go back to the main menu.

@SaturTP I have disabled Virtualization and VTd but unable to find VTx. So far with these two items it is still failing. Where did you find VTx. Just a generalized location will work hopefully.

@SaturTP I will try disabling virtualization however we do need that to be enabled on our servers. But if this works then at least it is pointing to the possible root of the issue.

@Tom-Elliott I have updated all systems to the latest firmware versions. I will go and check to make sure again that I am on the latest versions of firmware.

@SaturTP I am glad I am not the only one having this issue. Hopefully we can figure out what is causing the issue and get a fix implemented. Currently we are imaging our systems with this issue by hand which is taking a lot more time. I have it on a Quanta and a SMC server as well.

@george1421 Yes secure boot is disabled. Here is a picture of the BIOS setting.

@george1421 I have been able to get a debug BIOS for my system and was able to capture from a serial port more detail. I know it has been a while since this was updated but was thinking this could give more light to the issue. This is not the full file it is just from the select boot device (USB Drive) to the hang.

@rodluz Is it possible to try and get a new kernel with version 6.6.0 I have been told it could fix this issue.

@sgilbe After removing the card it is still hanging.

@rodluz It is still hanging. Removing card now.

@rodluz I will try and remove the QSFP card and am trying the new kernel now. Will let you know of the outcome.

@rodluz I can also try and get you remote access to this system as well if that would help in debugging this issue.

@rodluz here are the devices in the system. lshw.txt lshw-businfo.txt

Let me know if that helps.

@george1421 If possible would it be helpful if I could get you remote access to the system?
