Hi !

When trying to launch a netboot product, i often have the problem that the pxe configuration is read but the computer doesn't boot pxe...

The computer seams to read the fifo file but i guess it is not totally read...

Here is log of atftpd when it fails...

My confile of atftpd is /etc/default/atftpd

Code: Alles auswählen

$ cat /etc/default/atftpd 
USE_INETD=false
OPTIONS="--daemon --port 69 --retry-timeout 5     --mcast-port 1758 --mcast-addr 239.239.239.0-255 --mcast-ttl 1 --maxthread 100 --verbose=7 --logfile /var/log/atftpd.log  /srv/tftpboot"

Am I missing something ?

When it works, the good size is given first ...

326bytes at the first call ! Any idea ?

Hi,

did you read the releasenotes RE new bootimage / syslinux?
A downgrade of syslinux might help.

Thanks Niko,

We'll give it a try ...

Some news later !

Hello,

It seems to be much reliable with syslinux 3.71...

Any idea why syslinux 6.0.3 sometimes fail with fifo files ?

Regards,

Verfasst: **06 Nov 2015, 18:38**

I suspect that the timing fails and thus requests the pipe several times. In the end the pipe is not available anymore then and it fails

Hi M. Radtke,

I do agree with you !

Is there a way to change the time limit on the server side ?

I suppose I can't do anything on the client side ...

I have seen you revert to syslinux 3.71 in opsi 4.0.6 ... Is that for that reason ?

Thks,
Regards,

Nico

Yes this and other reasons like an incompatbility between syslinux 6 and various bioses causing that the client cannot localboot when running in PXE Mode

Currently I do not know where and how to change the limit. I would suggest to install the new testing bootimage and give it a try. See how it works for your problem.

Cheers
Mathias
