@george1421 After further troubleshooting, we determined that the issue was due to a bad sector on the hd. Moved to a different HD and the system worked like a champ. Thanks George for assisting in finding that little blurb about faulty sectors during the timeout

@Tom-Elliott I tried that, still failed. Same error. The system looks like it is going to work, it gets to about 1% on the progress bar, then goes haywire and fails.

Anybody have any other ideas on this? I’m drowning here.

@george1421 Tried that, still failed, same error

so I can just change the ftp path from image to /storage and that should work??

@george1421

@george1421 here is the image of the error

I’m doing a capture. here is the screen shot of the output for df -h

Tried to upload an image today and encountered an issue. Client error shows lack of diskspace, but we have 600gb free space on the system.

@sudburr I checked, and the info I was pulling from was the wrong system. F1KT71A, sorry. Somehow though now the system is PXE booting just fine. The only change I made was to go back to the default undionly.kpxe option

ok, so I changed the boot option back to the kpxe version, the version I had originally and now it is pxe booting.

@george1421 I believe they are on bios verison 9ckt10a, which is the highest bios revision Lenovo offers.

@Jaymes-Driver Is there a special code that I would need to be able to allow the m72 to pxe? They have realtec nic’s and keep stalling. I found a few things on that wiki, but not sure what exactly to change to allow all systems to pxe. We basically run Lenovo and hp for everything we image, and with them failing, there isn’t a way for me to register, then select a different pxe option in fog

@george1421 I see the kkpxe in the tftp directory, but when trying to mod it, VI, the coding is all garbled, Is that normal?

@george1421 I have both of those options set, and modified the 67 option to see the kkpxe file. I will check the tftp directory for the files and see what I might be missing

Stil having issues with this if anyone has some insight?

@sudburr are those the kkpxe file commands or operational commands for me to test with

@Tom-Elliott how can I confirm the correct files are used? We currently have our dhcp options pointing to the undionly.kpxe file but I can not locate that file anywhere to be able to determine if the code is correct

Description

Our imaging works like a champ to all of our systems except the our Lenovo m72 systems. The system stalls at initializing ipxe devices. Bios is up to date and current.

@george1421 This has fixed the issue at hand. Thank you for your assistance.
