Windows HTTP iPXE Setup
Hi all,
I am new to this forum and I am having trouble setting up WinPE via HTTP using IIS. So far I have added roles IIS and DHCP to my VM Win Server. I have followed http://ipxe.org/howto/winpe by extracting the wimboot file into my http folder 'C:\inetpub\wwwroot\ipxe'. I have ensured that this directory is shared and directory browsing is enabled within IIS Manager. I can browse the files within IE. I have the iPXE file iPXE.KRN extracted from iPXE.iso and placed in the same inetpub\wwwroot\ipxe directory too. BCD, boot.sdi and the boot.wim files are all there also. As stated in the documentation I have created a boot.ipxe file. The contents of this reads: #!ipxe cpuid --ext 29 && set arch amd64 || set arch x86 kernel http://192.168.0.2/ipxe/wimboot initrd http://192.168.0.2/ipxe/BCD BCD initrd http://192.168.0.2/ipxe/boot.sdi boot.sdi initrd http://192.168.0.2/ipxe/boot.wim boot.wim boot I have configured option 67 to http://192.168.0.2/ipxe/boot.ipxe in DHCP server config options. Documentation states, 'Boot using iPXE from the URI of your boot.ipxe script, e.g. http://my.web.server/winpe/boot.ipxe. You should see iPXE download and boot Windows PE via HTTP' But unfortunately I can not for the life of me get this to start iPXE. DHCP offer is received but nothing else and results in a timeout. I am testing this through Hyper-V VMs and both UEFI and BIOS generations have been tested just in case... Any help or advice on how to setup this WinPE via HTTP (using iPXE) is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance |
