<div>Hi</div>
<div>I’am using ipxe to boot my old PC-Hardware via USB-Stick. The reason why I need the USB stick is that the old PC does not support pxe boot via Network. So I have setup a TFTP server holding a pxelinux.0 binary. But my problem starts when I use the dhcp
command to get the ip address. As soon as I call the DHCP command, the PC hangs an I have to manually restart it. Here the output of the dmidecode command of my Hardware.</div>
<div> </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Here the script I am using</div>
<div> </div>
<div><font face="Courier New">#!ipxe</font></div>
<div><font face="Courier New"> </font></div>
<div><font face="Courier New"># Get ip address</font></div>
<div><font face="Courier New">dhcp</font></div>
<div><font face="Courier New"> </font></div>
<div><font face="Courier New"># Override dhcp settings</font></div>
<div><font face="Courier New">echo Override current dhcp settings next-server=${next-server} and filename=${filename}</font></div>
<div><font face="Courier New">set next-server 192.168.201.24</font></div>
<div><font face="Courier New">set filename pxelinux.0</font></div>
<div><font face="Courier New"> </font></div>
<div><font face="Courier New"># Boot</font></div>
<div><font face="Courier New">echo Booting ${filename} on server ${next-server}</font></div>
<div><font face="Courier New">chain tftp://${next-server}/${filename}</font></div>
<div> </div>
<div>I also compiled the latest version of pxe. </div>
<div> </div>
<div> </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Any idea what is the problem? Please let me know if you need more information.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Thanks in advanced </div>
<div>Dani </div>
<div> </div>
<div>P.S The pxe boot in general is working because on newer Hardware it works.</div>
