Syslinux - Nov 2015 - PXE automatic reboot after "No bootable device"

Hi all,

I am checking this wiki:

http://www.syslinux.org/wiki/index.php/PXELINUX

I cannot find information about what to do when the machine fails the
boot. The last thing I can see in the console is "No bootable device",
and the machine keeps stuck there forever.

I would like to know, please, if there is a way to automatically
reboot the machine when this error happens, in order to retry again a
good PXE boot.

Many thanks for your assistance.

Best regards,

      Jorge.

The message is not coming from PXELINUX but from your BIOS.

You should check BIOS settings such as the boot device order.

If the network is set as your first boot device, then you possibly have 
some problem configuring / setting up your network / dhcp / tftp / 
server(s).

Regards,
Ady.
