Compiling problem - captainipxe - 2021-05-12 15:18
Hello everyone :-)
I want to compile iPXE. I created a virtual Ubuntu 20.10 64-bit machine. I installed all packs which are listed on your website. I downloaded and extracted the zip from github. I edited some configfiles to enable features.
I used the command: make bin-x86_64-efi/ipxe.efi
The process fails. I get these lines at the end. What do i have to do to fix the problem?
I have a second question. I use iPXE via chainloading in my network to have quick diagnostic, backup and other live tools at the ready. I had several new Acer Travelmate notebooks in the past weeks here. They get the ipxe efi from the server; okay so far. But then they fail cause the auto configuration / loading the script file doesnt work because iPXE finds no network interface. I guess my ipxe efi doesnt support these network cards. Is there a way to make it work? Adding the driver or so?
I appreciate your help a lot :-)

You have tried to enable some BIOS-only features on your UEFI build.

Thank you for the feedback! That info helped me to find the right way.
After some hours everything works now. I compiled a new efi and kpxe file with my settings. Even the Acer notebooks are starting now.
I wanna say a big thanks to the developers here. iPXE is really awesome! Continue the great work!
