Hello,
I am attempting to use iPXE on a machine of mine to tftp download and boot a Linux kernel. I've built an iPXE usb image and flashed it to a usb drive, and booted into iPXE so far. My problem is that once I configure my network interface with a static IP, I am not able to ping any machines, so I'm not even able to begin downloading the kernel.
I am configuring my static IP like this:
set net0/ip 10.16.64.97
set net0/netmask 255.255.240.0
set net0/gateway 10.16.64.1
and then doing:
ping 10.16.66.54
ping 10.16.64.1
ping 127.0.0.1
(a server, the gateway, myself). In each case, the result is:
0 bytes from <none>: seq=1: Connection timed out (http://ipxe.org/4c1b2035)
I get the same results with DHCP configuration.
Am I missing something? Any ideas on this or help with this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Mike
