Hi, folks, We've been using pxeboot to pull up a menu, to build or rebuild machines for years. We have this new server, and it fails. Times out. What's happening is that it tries in this order .../pxelinux.cfg/b8945908-d6a6-41a9-611d-74a6ab80b83d .../pxelinux.cfg/01-88-99-aa-bb-cc-dd .../pxelinux.cfg/C0A8025B .../pxelinux.cfg/C0A8025 .../pxelinux.cfg/C0A802

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

We are attempting to setup an automated system to build some Linux systems. We have utilised the PXELINUX bootloader after encountering the PXE 512Kb limit with bootp. We now have another issue which you may have already run into. In the DHCP configuration we specify pxelinux.0 as the bootfile, this works reasonable well, we call the Redhat vmlinuz and initrd.img files within the

All, I realize this is not strictly a PXELINUX question. So I hope you'll indulge me; hopefully some of these PXELINUX experts have seen this before. And can tell me what I'm doing wrong. Or confirm my suspicions. I have a test lab server at work. Split config. The network team manages the DHCP servers, points to our TFTP server. Test subnet has 3 DHCP pools. BIOS PXE, UEFI PXE and

All, I was excited to hear about EFI boot support in pxelinux >= 6.00. So I tried it. Not working. I've tried 6.02 (from source), 6.02 (from RPM), early 6.03 (from RPM) and even pulled/compiled latest source from git. 6.0.3-pre7. No love. My boot client can boot/image fine in legacy PXE mode. My dhcpd.conf looks like this: # In initial DHCP DISCOVER packet, PXE client sets option

Hi everybody Attached you will find a file pxe.mnu (encoded with mime). It is PXE menu file created by 3COM MBA IMGEdit.exe tool. It is very strange since: 1) When I point DHCP bootfile to this file it loads with no problem and the menu is displayed. 2) When I point DHCP bootfile to pxelinux.0 and in pxelinux.cfg I put the command "KERNEL pxe.mnu" then system hangs. I wonder why this

Ady, There are at least 3 ways to set up your DHCP server to differentiate between std DHCP, BIOS PXE and UEFI PXE. Option 93 (arch) is one way. In ISC syntax, here's 3 ways: 1. Match on VCI class "pxe-clients" { match if substring (option vendor-class-identifier, 0, 9) = "PXEClient"; set vendor-string = substring ( option vendor-class-identifier, 0, 9);

I have spent a couple of days and quite some time during the nights googling and experimenting in pursuing subject objective and I feel like failing, if I cannot get competent help: My objective: boot a FreeBSD-package over the network by Systems lacking HW-Support for PXE My Testconfiguration: Server IBM-PC300 Client Siemes Fujitsu ErgoPro with freeBSD6.0 installed Network card in

We have been using syslinux (V4.05) in our product for years without a problem. Since we encounter more and more systems that do a UEFI boot by default we want to support that too. So I've been using syslinux V6.03 to create usb sticks and harddisks to allow both bios and uefi boot which works fine. The problem I run into now is that it is not possible to create a dvd that is capable of

g'day, i've been using pxelinux for a while on a bunch of machines in a lab. i note your pxelinux site shows configuration for ISC DHCP server - you and others may also find this useful .. most Cisco IOS-based routers (& some IOS-based switches) can run as a DHCP Server. i use them with pxelinux with the following configuration: ip dhcp pool dhcppool-vlan3-host12 host

Hello Friends, once more. We got pxelinux run with win 2000 dhcp. It works really fine. there a not problems at all. Now we want to get it run also under novell, but we want to use the novell dhcp, we don't need the tftpd from novell, we want to use a tfptd on another machine (a simple micrsoft tfptd). As we found out, novell does not support the dhcp options (67 = bootserver, 68 =

hello, I have a problem about pxe booting. I have two isolated machines, one(server) has got dhcp and tftp servers working correctly ( I am pretty confident with this). The other machine (client) using floopy to boot with pxe-request. The problem is, the client cannot get the bootfile("/tftpboot/pxelinux.0"), it always report no boot filename found. I also found the IP address, which

All, I have a question on how to deal with a quirk of the Intel Boot Agent. Both for PXE boots and for EFI boots. I've noticed this IBA quirk for years. According to the "DHCP options" RFC, variable length DHCP options are not necessarily null-terminated. Here's the details: >From DHCP Options and BOOTP Vendor Extensions (http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2132#section-2)

All (and hpa in particular), I know that the question in the subject line of this message may come across as a bit silly, given that PXElinux is not a DHCP server, but hear me out... Those of you who have been working on PXE-booting Windows PE instances or the new Windows installer images that make use of the Windows Boot Manager and ".wim" files may have come across the general
