Dear All,

               I succeeded in ipxe booting of iscsi target of windows 7, 8, 10. But During the load, windows logo stage takes more time to load and after it boots fine.

 

This is the script i am using from reboot.pro

 

#!ipxe
dhcp net0
set initiator-iqn iqn.1991-05.com.microsoft:murugaa-murugaa-target
set root-path iscsi:192.168.1.16::::iqn.1991-05.com.microsoft:murugaa-murugaa-target
set keep-san 1
sanboot ${root-path}
 
The user says he resolved the problem. But i don't understand. Can anyone explain in simple....
Does he says to compile it manually?
 
Its looks like some kind of programming.

Hi,

 

Before going to a specific driver version, try a generic version, in the following order : "undi", "undionly", "all drivers".

 

Try these 3 ipxe versions and report the results.

 

I would also advise to set your gateway to 0.0.0.0 (either thru your dhcp server or thru script).

 

A more detailed description of your setup would help us to help you.

 

Regards,

Erwan
