similar to: pxelinux fails to load miniroot completly

Hello, we have a problem with pxelinux and a specific hardware. In short: PXE starts, get and start the pxelinux.0 but can't get the configuration file. This problem belongs only to one new client. Other clients work in this environment with out any problem. The client is a HP xw4300 with the networkcard: ------------ vendor = "Broadcom Corporation" name = "NetXtreme BCM5752

I'm having some difficulties pxe booting Solaris. So far I have tried the mboot.c32, and the pxegrub shipped with Solaris. At first I had some problems with blksize, but this disapeared when I changed from atftpd to tftpd-hpa. The point at which I'm stuck now is, the kernel and x86.microroot/x86.miniroot is loaded but then VMWare crashes. I might try with real hardware, but I thought

One is 64bit and almost 90MB and the 32bit is 85MB. I know that some tftpd

Attached is a patch for the latest tftp-hpa. This patch add support for named pipes. Named pipes are 0 byte files which can be read by a PXE boot process. They provide the necessary informations for the boot process and are deleted afterwards. This PXE boot is a single event and won't interact until another named pipe is created for the client. -- Mathias Radtke ---

Hi, I am trying to setup my own PXE boot server. I tried several PXE bootable Linux-Distributions. For example if I use the ubuntu netboot image from [1] it works quit well but there are a few other images they do not work in my case e.g.: RIPLinuX [2]. A friend tested this image on his PXE boot server with success. I also checked the download with md5sum. In my case I can see the boot menu [3].

I'm trying to network boot a thin client using pxelinux. I had this working about a year ago but have since reinstalled my OS (went from RH9 to FC2). I'm using atftpd. The thin client gets the dhcp address fine and requests pxelinux.0. Eventually, it just times out. Here's the relevant info from /var/log/messages: Oct 7 23:14:36 home atftpd[4717]: Advanced Trivial FTP server started

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've been struggling with this problem for the last couple of hours and am nowhere near solving the problem. I am trying to run a tftp server in a chroot jail. Now perhaps I am being paranoid, but I would like to have it launched from within its own jail even if it supposedly does a chroot itself and runs with a parameterizable user. I downloaded the atftp-server package and tried

It seems that tftpd-hpa is more suitable at serving arbitrarily large files (greater than 65535 blocks long; with pxelinux.0 using a default block size of 1408 this is 92,273,280 bytes) as atftpd will complain in the log stating "Requested file to big, increase BLKSIZE". I saw that a while back HPA mentioned that atftpd was probably more scalable (number of clients) while tftpd-hpa is

Hello I recently get a Cisco 7940G IP Phone and I try to make several things with it and I en counted many difficulties: 1.) I tried to unlock the phone and to set manually IP Address, Netmask, Gateway etc. I don't get any luck. 2.) I tried to upgrade firmware like they said with tftp server... I downloaded: P0S3-08-11-00.zip and I uncompressed the files in tftpboot directory. I don't get

Hi, i'm trying to get my VIA Epia with VIA Rhine ethernet device to boot PXELinux. I have done this before, but now i can't get it to work. The machine loads pxelinux.0, i see some messages. But it fails just after trying reading the first config file (the one with the mac address). It kinda says this (transcribed): CLIENT IP: 192.168.1.23 MASK: 255.255.255.0 DHCP IP: 192.168.1.93

I'm interested to find out how many people are running tftp-hpa versus atftpd. I'm almost a bit surprised in how many people seem to be using tftp-hpa; for modern Unix systems (including Linux), I would in general assume atftpd to be a better choice. If you have tried both and specifically chosen (as opposed to "it was already installed", etc.) I'd be interested in

Hi, we ran into a little problem with rsync-2.5.5. Setup: you run rsync-2.5.5 as normal rsync over ssh (ie. not connecting to a rsync server). If you start such a rsync but interrupt the pulling process with Ctrl-C, the process on the other side may start to allocate all memory on the remote machine. As fa as we have analyzed the problem, the remote rsync process wants to issue a error message

First, THANKS! The SYSLINUX/PXELINUX s/w and docs are great. I have been able to set up a working server for PXE boot in very little time, using our existing Win2k DHCP server and a Red Hat 7.2 Linux server for tftp, etc... It took very little time (compared to an earlier effort 4 months ago.....) and the pxelinux/menu/memdisk environment is great for us. The environment seems to support PXE

Hello specialists In setting up a diskless X-Terminal I got stuck with the transfer of the ramdisk from the server to the target. With a ramdisk image size of about 60 Mb things go well, the file gets transfered completely and Linux boots perfectly. With a ramdisk image size of about 104 Mb the tftp transfer of the kernel succeds but the transfer of the ramdisk image fails. As tftp daemon I
