Trying to PXE boot a Dell Optiplex 990 with BIOS A16, which has Intel Boot Agent 1.3.81 (2.1 build 089). It gets network and launches lpxelinux.0, I see the PXELINUX banner line, but there it hangs. I tried both 6.03-pre18 and 5.10, same hanging behavior. If I instead use pxelinux.0 or gpxelinux.0, either 6.03-pre18 or 5.10 or 4.07, there are no problems. The problem seems isolated to

I believe I'm seeing a bug in lpxelinux.0 6.03-pre17 but I need some advice on how to isolate and troubleshoot this. (I can't try pre18 at the moment, but did try 4.07 and 5.10 and saw similar behavior, also with pxelinux.0, so although I'll give pre18 a try soon, some isolation/troubleshooting advice will be a good education no matter what.)

Hello Geert Thanks for replying.. But i think i can?t use it, as i don?t reach the point where the debug module will be available.. it just pulls the lpxelinux.0 and tries to get the next download-- the ldlinux.c32 and it fails...and freezes. And the next step would be other modules i think.. if i?m wrong.. excuse me 8-).. yesterday i managed to get ipxelinux working from ipxe.org.. so the nic

If I understand the issue correctly, is it that pxelinux.0 does not have a network stack and

I am experiencing an issue where I ran ipxe (as an option rom) and downloaded the lpxelinux.0 as the bootloader. Next it should download the ldlinux.c32 file using UNDI API. but before that it will close and open the underlying device (which is ipxe), and hooking the device interrupt so it can start getting some packets. What I'm experiencing is that if the underlying device doesn't

Hello, I am seeing sporadic duplicate read requests from lpxelinux.0 (6.03 from kernel.org), which results in a failed PXE boot. This happens only sporadic, but happens often enough to be annoying. The TFTP server serving lpxelinux.0 is running CentOS 7.6 with all updates applied. The client machine initiates the PXE boot, receives the lpxelinux.0 binary, downloads ldlinux.c32 and proceeds to

Hi All, I've been trying to understand how to use pxechn.c32 to chain a local pxelinux menu item to a remote server which has it's own pxelinux hierarchy served via TFTP and HTTP. We have no control over DHCP next-server and filename fields so I wanted to exploit the "prefix" -p option that pxechn.c32 accepts. I spent a long time hitting my head against a brick wall until I

On this list in early July 2014 I reported that on certain hardware one cannot chain from ipxe to lpxelinux.0 . My report at the time was about 6.03-pre17. I've repeated the tests with the release version of 6.03 and here is an updated report with more details. I boot to a USB stick with iPXE, which then is told to "dhcp" and then "chain http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/pxe.0".

hi does anyone know if there are some known issues with running lpxelinux.0 with device that doesn't support Interrupts? i.e. irq function is null...

Hi Gene, Thanks for the quick response. Im using pxelinux4.07. pxelinux.0 I didn?t find any lpxelinux.0 in this version I will try lpxelinux.0 from Syslinux6.03-pre20.

Decided to try out lpxelinux on a couple of Dell R610s. Both versions 5.10 and 6.03 hung on a server with fairly up-to-date BIOS (6.1.0), but work fine on another R610 with old BIOS (1.2.6). Watching the TFTP log and running tcpdump on the PXE server, I see it download pxelinux.0 (renamed from lpxelinux.0), but it never even tries to transfer anything after that succeeds. It eventually (seems
