[ipxe-devel] Problem with iPXE menu

[Andreas Hammarskjöld]

This line does not look legit to me;

isset ${net${interface-idx}/mac} || goto end-loop-int item --key ${interface-idx} net${interface-idx} net${interface-idx} inc interface-idx && goto loop-int :end-loop-int

AFAIK you cant have multiple commands like this;

goto end-loop-int item --key ${interface...

So you would need to split it out like;

|| goto end-loop-int &&  goto loop-int

And then deal with you setting the "item" othwise.

Subject: [ipxe-devel] Problem with iPXE menu

Hi All,

I'm having a bit of trouble with iPXE menus.  I'm trying to allow a user to select the interface that they would like to boot from and this works fine.  However, if someone incorrectly selected the wrong interface, I want them to be able to go back into the menu and reselect the proper one.

When i choose the option to select the boot interface the first time it works and sets the boot-interface variable to the selected network, returns to the menu showing the "Select Boot Interface (DONE)". If I then select this option again it seems to attempt to boot and ends up with an INT18 error.

What am I doing wrong?
