WDS and iPXE not getting along - jmartinHLG - 2014-05-28 22:44 We have recently setup a new WDS server on Windows Server 2012 R2. It is working well with our physical machines, but I cannot our VMs running on Proxmox to boot. iPXE appears to download WDSNBP correctly, but it doesn't progress past that. I have checked and changed all of the settings I know of to get it working. I've attached a screenshot of the error I'm receiving. https://www.dropbox.com/s/ckd6yep0pcdk1vs/Capture.PNG I'd really like to get PXE booting working on our VMs for image creation. Thanks! RE: WDS and iPXE not getting along - robinsmidsrod - 2014-06-02 10:55 I would recommend you try to use wimboot instead of WDSNBP. It's more capable and should work with VMs without issues. See these HOWTOs for details: http://ipxe.org/wimboot http://ipxe.org/howto/winpe http://ipxe.org/howto/sccm Also, why do you have two backslashes (%5C) between the path parts? That seems like an error. RE: WDS and iPXE not getting along - jmartinHLG - 2014-06-02 15:10 Thank you for your reply. I'm not sure this will accomplish what I need. I have been able to successfully get wimboot and WinPE working. I'd like to use the Virtual Machines to create and captures new images to deploy to physical machines. Can I use wimboot to boot our WDS environment? I can't seem to find documentation on it. Justin RE: WDS and iPXE not getting along - jmartinHLG - 2014-06-02 16:53 Okay, I thought through the whole process and I think I have it working using wimboot. Thanks! Justin
