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 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?

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.

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

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

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

Hello. We are using pxelinux for years to boot Linux via PXE since years. Since EFI is spreading, I changed configuration to be able to boot EFI systems. The "Client": - HP Proliant DL380Gen9 System FW: 1.21 11/03/2014, latest available - NIC used for booting: HP Embedded LOM 331i (Broadcom BCM 5719/ tg3), FW: 5719-v1.38 The Server: - ISC-DHCP with tfpd-hpa running on Debian 6.x -

Gene, All good questions. Thanks for taking time to respond. You've given me great leads to follow up w/ DHCP appliance consultant. >filename being file. I presume it looks like "/path/to/syslinux.efi" >or "/path/to/bootx64.efi" and not a TFTP URL? Correct. >> TFTP Server Name (66) -- a string. I have tried: >> - TFTP Server's IP

Hi, When we meet UEFI or EFI firmware, lots of linux os release use GRUB bootloader. But I wanna use isolinux to boot the installation environment and also the linux os installed. Some question puzzled me. Now, I look for your help: 1. I didn't found information about how to use syslinux(isolinux,etc.) in uefi. I wanna know that are there some differences of the isolinux configuration

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
