<p class="MsoNormal">Hi iPXE Developers,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We have recently met a problem about booting the system with different iPXE methods, which are
<i>traditional UEFI iPXE</i> and <i>embedded iPXE</i>.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">With the traditional UEFI iPXE, we can successfully boot iPXE, but not with embedded iPXE method.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am attaching below capture for your reference.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">On the left side was embedded iPXE, and the right side was UEFI iPXE.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><img border="0" width="1839" height="434" id="Picture_x0020_1" src="cid:image001.png@01D5FD30.43345BA0"><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Looked like the system was successfully downloading the ipxe.efi to start up iPXE application, but somehow with embedded iPXE, the iPXE application could not load the NIC UEFI driver to establish the connection.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We checked the <i>0x044ee186</i> page, but still had no idea.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Is it possible for you to provide us some suggestions?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Do we need to attach the Wireshark or something for reference?<o:p></o:p></p>
