Trouble booting into iPXE from new HP Probook 440 G11
-
Sorry my dev vm died and I lost a lot of my build scripts. Getting everything setup again, hopefully in the next day or 2.
-
@theopenem_admin Oh no, I'm sorry to hear that.
-
Here is the latest version, i see you are using the proxy.
http://files.theopenem.com/ipxe.efiPlace it in
Program Files\tftpboot\static\ipxe\proxy\ipxe_efi_64Then in admin settings->pxe /boot menu ->pxe settings, change your ipxe 64 bootloader to something other than ipxe_efi, save it, and then change it back to allow the new file to copy to the correct folder.

@theopenem_admin
Thanks! I just tried it out. Looks like we're making some progress. Unfortunately, now I'm getting this timeout error after pulling down the default.ipxe file. I'll keep poking around.
-
Looks like the tftp server is empty for some reason. I'll double check some things
-
@theopenem_admin
Thanks! I poked around on this end and wasn't able to get anywhere. -
@theopenem_admin Good morning! Any luck adding that TFTP path to the ipxe image? Thanks!
-
I haven't been able to see the issue. Is the new version not working on the older machines either?
-
@theopenem_admin Yea, unfortunately. I just tried an older device that worked before again and it times out trying to download the default.ipxe file.
-
@theopenem_admin I copied the old ipxe file back and updated the pxe settings. I get this error when I do that, I don't know if it would be relevant.
"Updated Settings Successfully, But Could Not Copy PXE Binaries On One Or More Com Servers. Check The Logs For More Info"
The old file works on my old device again.
-
I can't seem to replicate this, the latest version seems to be working for me. Are you using the proxy dhcp service, how are your dhcp options setup?
-
Also, can you send me your original ipxe file that is working for the old models.
-
ipxe.zip @theopenem_admin We are using the DHCP proxy. Here is a screenshot of the options in the server.
Also, I attached my original ipxe file that works.Thanks for the help!
-
@theopenem_admin Also, we have two other DHCP policies set up for 32-bit and BIOS respectively in the DHCP server. But, we really don't use them these days.
-
I can't see any difference b/w your file and the new one. Your DHCP config is a little strange. If you are setting options in your DHCP scope then you are not using the proxy. Do you have toems dhcp proxy service running?
-
@theopenem_admin Oh, I didn't realize that. I do have Toem's DHCP proxy installed and running. I'll need to take a look at the instructions again. I set it all up years ago. It sounds like I may not even need the DHCP proxy, we only have 64-bit EFI devices now.
-
Yea, i would turn off the proxy since your DHCP is already setup to handle the different bootloaders. Also, remove the option 60 PXEClient.
-
@theopenem_admin Thanks! will try that tomorrow and see what happens.
