similar to: uEFI support for PXELINUX

Hi, I need two questions answered: 1) When will PXELINUX have uEFI support? 2) With uEFI support comes IPv6 PXE support. Our latest IBM System X boxes all have IPv6 EFI-based PXE code ready to go, however the syslinux community seems to be very behind on uEFI and IPv6 integration for PXELINUX. Will PXELINUX ever support IPv6 from a uEFI network boot? I guess a 3rd question arises too: If

In another mail I discussed my adventures on netbooting syslinux 6.03 and newer from iPXE, either from an emulated rom on qemu/kvm/ovmf or by chainloading via ipxe.efi onto a real HP Proliant DL360 gen9 piece of iron. You might have asked yourself, why chainload? Why not load it directly? Believe me, i tried. First I had to 'fix' my dhcpd.conf because HP probably read the docs on

Dear gentlemen, here goes the documentation fix I was talking about :-) The Wiki page on PXElinux, specifically the chapter on UEFI at the end of that page: https://wiki.syslinux.org/wiki/index.php?title=PXELINUX#UEFI ...contains a few examples of ISC DHCPd configuration. The stumbling block for me was the syntax of these "if" scopes: if option architecture-type = 9 { filename

I am getting the following error with memdisk when attempting to boot. I am booting UEFI device using elilo.efi and loading a elilo.conf file with below configuration. Attached is also a print sceen of the error I am getting about memdisk. # force chooser to textmenu chooser=textmenu delay=20 prompt # # the files containing the text (with attributes) to display # message=textmenu-message.msg

Hi, I am currently trying to replace our companies elilo UEFI PXE boot with syslinux. I compiled all the needed files and the DHCP distributes them fine to the requesting client. However when I try to boot our companies miniroot the DHCP serves the file, but it seems like it never finishes. The image is generated with the following command: find . | grep -v 'name'.bz2 | cpio -o -H newc

Dear all, Is uEFI support for PXELinux 6.0 alpha ready? It seems the uEFI boot alpha support is only for syslinux, not PXElinux? Or did I miss something? Thanks.

Dear gentlemen, I think I'd better start another thread for this... thanks to Ady Ady and Gregory Lee Bartholomew for their responses to my early question. Just for the record, my fresh experience with PXElinux 6.x follows: syslinux.efi version 6.03 does boot to the extent that it shows a prompt, but if I provide it with a CFG file containing several labels, no matter what label I type

Hi, Since which version of pxelinux.0 is understood in pxelinux.cfg/default that kernel http://host.lan/netboot/vmlinuz means vmlinuz should be transported over HTTP? Since which version of pxelinux.0 is it possible to boot on UEFI? Those questions elaborated: What I want is fast netboot UEFI servers. What I'm looking for is an advice which version of PXELINUX between version

Is IPv6 supported by PXELINUX? With the transition to IPv6 occurring already, I'm seeing requests for supporting an IPv6-Based PXEboot and need to know if it's supported or is planned for support.

For non-EFI systems, this has meant use HTTP services if available (ie, iPXE/gPXE or lwIP as in

All, (This may be a Gene question, see http://www.syslinux.org/wiki/index.php/Development/Testing). I'd like to find a virtualization env to test and demo the new UEFI-based PXE boot in pxelinux. I've tried Virtualbox (BIOS-based PXE boot only). And I've tried VMWare workstation 20 (ditto). I know VMWare ESXi will now do UEFI PXE boot, I've seen it as work. But for home or
