Hi,
I'm running ipxe commit d5c88c0 (Tue Feb 19 2019)
I have the following iPXE script:
I am PXE booting a Solarflare X2522 network card in a Dell R740 server
When the card is in PCI Slot 1, SF OptionRom -> PXE -> iPXE -> boot, no problems.
When the card is in PCI Slot 8, SF OptionRom -> PXE -> iPXE -> hangs on 'boot' command!
Does anyone have any DEBUG= flags I could try (tcp doesn't show anything interesting)
Or knows of any iPXE related problems to this?
Or thinks it could be a Dell BIOS/iDRAC problem? (I'm on BIOS 1.6.12, iDRAC 3.21.26.22)
Any advice welcome![Big Grin Big Grin]()
Thanks!
Ross
