Installing Win 8.1 64 Bit via iPXE
Hello,
I'm trying for days now to get my pxe boot environment working. I have a dnsmasq server which pxe boots to a syslinux menu where you can select different images (working fine). The menu calls the following: KERNEL IPXE.KRN APPEND dhcp && set image win81 && chain http://install.local/default.ipxe To say it first the images / extracted files work fine if used on CD... In the default.ipxe I tryed different configs: set boot-url http://install.local/ :win81 sanboot --drive 0x81 --keep --no-describe ${boot-url}os/Win81.iso --> Error /Boot/BCD is missing :win81 sanboot --no-describe ${boot-url}os/Win81.iso --> I/O error :win81_org1 set dir ${osdir}Win81/ kernel ${boot-url}_boot/wimboot initrd ${dir}bootmgr bootmgr initrd ${dir}boot/bcd BCD initrd ${boot-url}_boot/fonts/chs_boot.ttf fonts/chs_boot.ttf initrd ${boot-url}_boot/fonts/cht_boot.ttf fonts/cht_boot.ttf initrd ${boot-url}_boot/fonts/jpn_boot.ttf fonts/jpn_boot.ttf initrd ${boot-url}_boot/fonts/kor_boot.ttf fonts/kor_boot.ttf initrd ${boot-url}_boot/fonts/segmono_boot.ttf fonts/segmono_boot.ttf initrd ${boot-url}_boot/fonts/segoe_slboot.ttf fonts/segoe_slboot.ttf initrd ${boot-url}_boot/fonts/segoen_slboot.ttf fonts/segoen_slboot.ttf initrd ${boot-url}_boot/fonts/wgl4_boot.ttf fonts/wgl4_boot.ttf initrd ${boot-url}_boot/fonts/malgunn_boot.ttf fonts/malgunn_boot.ttf initrd ${boot-url}_boot/fonts/meiryo_boot.ttf fonts/meiryo_boot.ttf initrd ${boot-url}_boot/fonts/meiryon_boot.ttf fonts/meiryon_boot.ttf initrd ${boot-url}_boot/fonts/msjh_boot.ttf fonts/msjh_boot.ttf initrd ${boot-url}_boot/fonts/msjhn_boot.ttf fonts/msjhn_boot.ttf initrd ${boot-url}_boot/fonts/msyh_boot.ttf fonts/msyh_boot.ttf initrd ${boot-url}_boot/fonts/msyhn_boot.ttf fonts/msyhn_boot.ttf initrd ${dir}boot/boot.sdi boot.sdi initrd ${dir}sources/boot.wim boot.wim imgstat boot --> This config works for the 32Bit version fine but for 64 Bit the Bootloader starts (Loading Files) and then stops with a black screen. I have a bit of technical experience but I'm pretty new to the whole pxe booting topic. I tried to get some kind of debug output but totaly failed as I'm not even sure where the setup failed. What I already tried is to change the bootmgr and afterwards the whole boot folder from the working 32 Bit install -> no success... I also managed to get the install.wim instead of the install.esd - I changed the files but no change / same behaviour. I would be happy if somebody could point me in the right direction. BTW I know that I can boot a Winpe image and start the install from there but that's not what I would like to have - I would like to directly boot to the setup as if the cd would be in the machine. Thanks in advance for any help |
