similar to: syslinux EFI?

We've been successfully installing Linux using pxelinux to bootstrap our Linux (CentOS) installs for many years, but we are about to take delivery of hardware that doesn't have legacy BIOS boot support for internal drives - so I'm making my first foray into the world of EFI - and can _almost_ get it all to work, but hit an issue that I'm not sure how to 'fix' ...

I want to eufi boot this image: http://cdn-fastly.deb.debian.org/debian/dists/testing/main/installer-amd64/current/images/hd-media/boot.img.gz there is a bug against it: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=913523 I'd like to fix the resulting usb stick for my use, and also fix it in a way that can be used to fix the upstream bug. I'm trying to follow the guids

Hi, I see that 6.x release is out. UEFI support is included. How can I boot Windows 2008 through EFI? What steps of configuration pxelinux I should follow? Also can I boot both BIOS and EFI client from one pxelinux environment? My configuration is syslinux(pxelinux) + ISC dhcp. Thanks.

Hi All, My PXE configurations works fine for a bios PXE (the server in legacy mode) but hangs in an EUFI mode. Look like it can transfer the bootx64.efi but not the next one ldlinux.e64 Any ideas?

Dear people on the Syslinux Mailinglist, Are there any known problems with the performance of TFTP in (U)EFI environments in general or maybe just on VMWare? Right now I'm running tests on two virtual environments using either VMWare Workstation 11.1.0 on a Fedora 21 system or VMWare Player 7.1.0 on an Ubuntu 14.10 system. Both virtual systems support PXE booting in UEFI mode. Both systems

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've have my scripts to a better state, including installing/using qemu to uefi and legacy boot the usb stick for testing. It mostly works for me, but the "wget a tarball of binaries" step isn't going to sit well with

I posted this on the bugzilla page but I figured that on the mailing list it would get more attention.

Hi, We are currently testing PXE booting with syslinux.efi in UEFI mode. This is working fine. However the loading of syslinux.efi and the config files is still using TFTP protocol, the rest kernel and initrd is loaded using HTTP protocol. We would like to use only HTTP protocol. In UEFI it is possible to use HTTP boot instead off PXE boot. Questions: 1. If we load syslinux.efi with HTTP will

Hi! I am currently trying upgrade my bios pxe server with additional uefi support. My current using memtest86+ doesn't seem to support uefi, so I would have to use memtest86, as it supports this. But the memtest86 file itself is an *.efi file. When booting this one directly without syslinux, its working. But I want to launch it later from the syslinux menu. Can I chainload somehow another
