Asix AX88179 USB to Ethernet Adapter

RE: Asix AX88179 USB to Ethernet Adapter
That is strange, if i load an ISO directly instead of my menu it takes me through the install with the ncm--ecm--axge.efi. However, I have been doing all of this testing through BMC on a server half a country away.

I'll need to look more into the USB issues to see how the virtual keyboard works. In the meantime if there are any other paths to look into please let me know.

Thank you

Are you using a USB keyboard as well?
Have you tried to use a script to see if boot works - just to confirm if keyboard is the only thing that dies?
if you have issues with pure ipxe.efi (which does not have USB support) than there is something else going on that hangs probably...

EFI firmware and timers that are involved with USB and the iPXE Keyboard driver when USB is used, is a likely culpit, reading the git commit history for the USB keyboard stuff will give some insight into how messy EFI is there.
