HP Service Pack for Proliant (Firmware)

HP Service Pack for Proliant (Firmware)
I've been trying to get HP Service Pack for Proliant (SPP)[/quote][/code][/php] running and have been having an issue. I have it booting up and the issue is possible trying to mount the drive from within the boot image.

The SPP is PXE bootable. There is a PXE section that I tried to setup to use with iPXE. http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softlib2/software1...eNotes.pdf

I created a boot.ipxe that is in the same folder as the extracted /system dir from the SPP ISO.

From the main menu, I'm just doing a chain to this boot.ipxe.

Boot.ipxe
Code:
#!ipxe
kernel http://${server}/hp_spp_2014_06/system/vmlinuz raid=nodetect
initrd http://${server}/hp_spp_2014_06/system/initrd.img

imgargs vmlinuz raid=nodetect media=net rw root=/dev/ram0 ramdisk_size= init=/bin/init loglevel=3 ide=nodma showopts ide=noraid nopat pnpbios=off vga=791 splash=verbose hp_fibre showopts noexec32=off numa=off nox2apic TYPE=MANUAL AUTOPOWEROFFONSUCCESS=no AUTOREBOOTONSUCCESS=yes iso1=smbfs://${server}/shared/hp_spp_2014_06/HP_Service_Pack_for_Proliant_2014.06.0_784915_001_spp_2014.06.0-SPP2014060.2014_0618.4.iso iso1mnt=/mnt/bootdevice

boot

Now it does boot into the HP image but it dies right after getting a DHCP address then trying to mount the filesystem.

I'm not too sure but I'm guess it might be the iso1=smbfs:// line. The ISO is on that share and have verified outside of this that it is accessible.

Any have any experience with attempting to iPXE this HP SPP ISO?
