Brick Recently iPXE don't chainboot.
About one years ago, I sucessed iPXE chainbooting.
I use iPXE 1.0.0+ (acc27) build.

But I tried chainboot by recently iPXE build.
I failed iPXE chainboot.
I use iPXE 1.0.0+(55e4).

Environment is same.
same server, same client.

Why?

Code:
Intel UNDI. PXE-2.1 (build 002)
Copyright (C) 1997-2000 Intel Corporation

For RealTek RTL8111B/8111C Gigabyte Ethernet Controller v2.14(000225)

CLIENT MAC ADDR: 00 25 11 CB 41 1B GUID 00020003-0004-0005-0006-00700080009

             UNID device is PCI 02:00.0, type DIX+802.3
             584kB free base memory after PXE unload

No more network devices

Press Ctrl+B for the iPXE command line...


I found out old build chainboot fine.
I searched chainbooting recently iPXE build.

It is chainbooting underline.

After commit source, It cannot chainboot.

Enviroment
Server
- Debian Wheezy (Linux pxeserver 3.2.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.2.78-1 x86_64 GNU/Linux)
- ECS 945GCT-M
- Intel® Pentium® Dual CPU E2160 @ 1.80GHz
- Dnsmasq 2.62-3+deb7u3
- iPXE (undionly.kpxe)
Client
- Desktop PC
- ECS G43T-M5
- Realtec PCIe GBE Family Controller
- Intel UNDI,PXE-2.0 (bulid 082)
- Realtek RTL8139(A/B/C)/RTL8130 PCI Fast Ethernet Controller v2.11

dnsmasq conf
Code:
root@pxeserver:~# cat /etc/dnsmasq.conf | grep -v -e ^# -e ^$
dhcp-range=172.20.0.0,proxy
dhcp-boot=tag:!ipxe,undionly.kpxe,172.20.0.225
dhcp-match=set:ipxe,175 # gPXE/iPXE sends a 175 option.
dhcp-boot=tag:!ipxe,undionly.kpxe
dhcp-boot=tag:ipxe,http://172.20.0.225/a.ipxe
pxe-service=tag:!ipxe,x86PC,"splash",undionly.kpxe
enable-tftp
tftp-root=/var/ftpd
log-queries
conf-dir=/etc/dnsmasq.d

Is dnsmasq.conf settings wrong?
Old build can chainbooting.
I don't think it wrong.

I get two packet caputure chainbooting and not chainbooting by tcpdump.
I share it for you by cloudshark.

iPXE 1.0.0+(ba36) Tue, 25 Aug 2015
