Hi Mathias,

it's still in this state. Several hours later.

It's pingable before but stops being pingable when the text appears. (Just tried it again to make sure it's not the long delay)

Ok I might have found something.

A new bootimage is currently being build internally and if it succeeds a new version (20200205-1) will be uploaded later in the experimental repository at download.opensuse.org.

please add

Code: Alles auswählen

modprobe.blacklist=intel_lpss_pci
to the grub.cfg line if you install the new opsi-linux-bootimage package.
At least this works on surface models when starting from USB.

The new build is needed as the required blacklisted module is currently compiled into the kernel instead of being modular and therefore cannot get blacklisted with the current bootimages.

Regards
Mathias

Hi I could not find the bootimage yet.

Did it build? Am I looking in the wrong place?
Could you probably provide me with a direct link?

Hi

yes it did build.
its here, depending on your Distribution.
In debian based distros it is located in the all subdir.

it works!

the bootimage shows messages at the top stating "timeout waiting for data" but the assistant starts and I am currently running a test setup.

Idk why but the setup freezed at some point in the PE and since this freeze I can't get the device booting from PXE at all anymore... Will report back when I found the cause.

Just wanted to let you know that I did not forget about you.
I was not able to solve my issue yet... Getting weird PXE errors on the surface now... There seems something to be broken in the EFI firmware... :lol:

Hi Alex,

no need to hurry, have enough stuff to do :D

Broken EFIs aren't so uncommon. Meet them sometimes in the office.
