<br>
I'm having real problems trying to make any headway trying to boot a<br>
WINPE5 based ISO image with iPXE.<br>
<br>
My iPXE script currently looks like the following:<br>
<br>
kernel /iPXE/wimboot<br>
initrd /Images/Autoghost4.02/contents/BOOT/BCD BCD<br>
initrd /Images/Autoghost4.02/contents/BOOT/BOOT.SDI<br>
initrd /Images/Autoghost4.02/contents/SOURCES/BOOT/Windows/Boot/EFI/bootmgfw.efi<br>
bootmgfw.efi<br>
initrd /Images/Autoghost4.02/contents/SOURCES/BOOT.WIM<br>
boot<br>
<br>
But it's failing to load the EFI loader with the error EFI_UNSUPPORTED.<br>
<br>
Output is as follows:<br>
Using bootmgfw.efi via 0xbb037588 len 0x14a560<br>
...found bootmgfw.efi file bootmgfw.efi<br>
Using BOOT.WIM via 0xbb037628 len 0xb8e75e1<br>
...found WIM file BOOT.WIM<br>
Using wimboot via 0xbb0376c8 len 0x8440<br>
Read bootmgfw.efi<br>
Could not load bootmgfw.efi: 0x8000000000000003<br>
Could not boot: Error 0x7f048281 (<a href="http://ipxe.org/7f048281" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://ipxe.org/7f048281</a>)<br>
<br>
I've also tried adding initrd line for bootmgr.efi as well, after<br>
first attempt at "boot", it fails as before, but a second attempt at<br>
"boot", I get the following:<br>
<br>
Could not install disk block I/O protocols: 0x8000000000000014, which<br>
I believe maps to EFI_ALREADY_STARTED?<br>
<br>
I'm really very stuck at this point :(<br>

Wimboot can extract that file from the WIM (unless you explicitly provide it as in your script), so try commenting out or removing the line:</div><div><br></div><div>>initrd /Images/Autoghost4.02/contents/SOURCES/BOOT/Windows/Boot/EFI/bootmgfw.efi bootmgfw.efi</div><div><br></div><div>...and see what happens.</div><div><br></div><div>It would be a good idea to rule out this system's firmware as being the source of the problem as well. Do you have any other UEFI machines you can try booting with the same payload?</div><div><br></div><div>Best regards,</div><div>Andrew</div></div><br></div></div>
