tftp download is working, http - not - mimiko - 2015-11-17 13:28
Hello.
I've encountered a Lenovo ideapad 100-15iby notebook. I try to network boot a tool, for example memtest. undionly.kpxe is loaded and in menu I have:
label memtest
kernel gpxecmd.c32
append chain http://ip/tools/memtest.ipxe
memtest.ipxe contain:
imgfree pxelinux.0 ||
chain memtest.0 || reboot
memtest.0 and memtest.ipxe resides in same folder.
On the screen I see that memtest.ipxe is loaded and executed, then memtest.0 is trying to download, but a long of time only dots appears. Then on the screen appears lot of errors of same type:
UNDINIC 0x2645c could not allocate xx bytes for RX buffer
Where xx some number. If I use tftp insteed - it works ok. On other machines http works too, only on this notebook is the problem.
Hardware Detection Tool detected two nics:
1) Realtec Semiconductor RTL8101E/RTL8102E PCI Express Fast Ethernet Controller
PCI ID: 10ec:8136[17aa:3830]
module: r8169
2) Realtec Semiconductor
Product: unknown
PCI ID: 10ec:8179[10ec:8179]

Please help.

Firstly, please try simplifying your setup by invoking memtest directly from iPXE, without going through a pxelinux menu.

What is the full chain of events when you do not use pxelinux? (What is in your DHCP config file; what appears on screen, etc.)?

I've put original downloaded undionly.kpxe, not my build. PXE gets an IP and downloads undionly.kpxe. I press Ctrl+B. Then issue ifopen, then chain ... to the file.
in dhcp:
next-server 10.10.0.75;
filename "undionly.kpxe";
Cannot attach the image:
The file upload failed. Please choose a valid file and try again. Error details: There was a problem moving the uploaded file to its destination.
Its 237KB jpeg image.
