Hi Christian

Thanks for you ansvare
First, I use undionly.kpxe

The setup is done by following this guide.

and on the client, nothing happens when I press CTRL-B

In the image it looks like you have BIOS doing PXE DHCP request, getting response and loading some version of ipxe.
After that you should have another DHCP request but this time from iPXE, is this second dhcp request seen by the dhcp server?

The ipxe in the image is missing the "git version id" please make sure you have the latest version of ipxe git master and that the git version id is shown when booting.

One thing that might be interesting is if you press ctrl-b to get the iPXE shell and then type dhcp enter followed by ifstat to get some info about nic driver and how it looks in regards to packets received and sent and any possible error.

You are using ipxe.pxe? have you tried undionly.kpxe instead?

Hi

We using IPXE to boot our SCCM boot image, and its works very fine.

But now we got at strange issue, with a new Lenovo T460P laptop.

When we try booting PXE, I got a ip address, and it contact the iPXE server, and on the tftp log, we can see it sends the boot menu file, but nothing happens on the laptop.
When we use the T460 there is no problems.
And both computers have the same net card.

Any suggestions to solve my issue?

I have attached a picture of the failure computer.
