Gene, As it happened I started working on this again just as you mailed me. It appears that PXE-E99 may also be related to MTFTP part of the PXE spec. IBM also says it has something to do with jumbo frames. I tried setting PXE.mtcp-ip to 0.0.0.0 to disable it but still no joy. The bootfile size shows up as zero because that relates to "option boot-size" in dhcp and doesn't seem to

Hi, my client pc hangs on pxelinux before starting to fetch the linux kernel. It hangs after printing the ip information row. No traffic is observed at this point on the network. The pxelinux is transferred to the client through a tftp server and with no problems. What options do I have to proceed from this point and try to find out where the problem is? Thanks, Firas. -- Firas Swidan, PhD

Ady: You seem to be taking (copy$paste) parts and pieces from different resources. Luke: Nope. The configuration works fine with PXE 2.01 clients, it's the UEFI PXE 3.2 that is having issues with the dhcp requests. The gospel is the Intel PXE 3 spec I'm RTFMing now. No copy and paste, I just started with someone elses configuration file that claims to support UEFI - or at least hopes to

Hello. In my case I can successfully boot up my Thinkpad X32, but the same configuration doesn't work for my desktop computer with Intel network card, with Intel Boot Agent 2.2 DHCP server is 10.0.0.1, tftpd (used tftp-hpa) runs on 10.0.0.32. netstat told me the daemon listen to 69 UDP port just fine. running tftp in commandline also shows it works (retrieve pxelinux.0 less then 1 second).

hi, i'm wondering aboot the option "vendor-class identifier" what means these two number? i have actually us it in my dhcpd.conf, and all is working, but i don't know what it mean.... if substring (option vendor-class-identifier, 0, 3) = "PXE" i have the same question for the "option vendor-encapsulated-options" ? this is just because, i just read a ltsp

Sorry for top-posting but my webmail forces me to. I added -W to the APPEND line as suggested but I'm still getting the same result: Booting... Altiris, inc. X86PC PreBoot, PXE-2.x Enhanced Build ID=402 PXEPreZero: Invalid PXE Server list format. and the client PC freezes right there. Here's the full content of my dhcp.conf: max-lease-time 86400; ddns-update-style interim;

Got to minimize (barely) my filesystem and kernel and fit it into my usb key (256mb) My kernel was compiles with scsi and usb support built-in. My problem now is i can't mount my root filesystem when i tried to boot. kernel somehow takes time before being able to recognize my usb as a valid scsi device thus displaying VFS: Cannot open root device 08:01 this is my lilo.conf boot=/dev/sda

Sorry for the totally newb question, but I coudn't find out from your website and posts if this is possible. Is it possible to use PXELinux to PXE boot a system and load a bootable ISO instead of a bootable floppy? If yes, are there size limitations on the ISO? I would like to PXE boot to WinPE using PXELinux if possible. Thanks

Hi, I was wondering if anyone had a good dhcpd.conf and /tftpboot files for a EPIA-M motherboard with RedHat 9.0.... Or maybe just a configuration that works with the EPIA-M (doesn't matter which type of linux). I'm trying to boot the system from the network and it seems to be getting to downloading pxelinux.0 but then nothing happens after that.... I'm using ISC dhcpd V3.0pl2,

Hi, I have a Linux server at ip address 10.215.144.7 running DHCP, TFTP and syslinux. DHCP config contains the following: next-server 10.215.144.7; filename "/pxe/syslinux/pxelinux.0"; and the 'default' pxelinux.cfg contains: LABEL altiris ??? MENU LABEL ^7. Altiris ??? COM32 pxechn.c32 ??? APPEND 10.215.144.60::/BStrap/x86pc/BStrap.0 When a PXE client boots in my network

Gene, I found a document from IBM that explains why it didn't like Vendor-Class-Identifier option I was using "PXEClient" was causing EFI boot rooms to dummy spit, that's very useful, that combined with RTFMing the PXE specs 3.0-3.2 might solve my problem if I keep at it. http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21247032 Even the PXELinux docs suggest encapsulating

It's not this and I'm getting a PXE-E99 tftp failure "Unexepected Network Error", so I'll guess I'll need to investigate what kind of TFTP server makes hyper-v happy. Virtualbox, VmWare seem to have the same EFI boot code & output

Hello, i've found a strange bug, here is my situation: - all of our computers makes a pxeboot request by default dhcp server is configured: option option-128 code 128 = string; option option-129 code 129 = text; option space PXE; option PXE.mtftp-ip code 1 = ip-address; option PXE.mtftp-cport code 2 = unsigned integer 16; option PXE.mtftp-sport code 3 = unsigned
