Odd problem with HPE smart array and sanboot

RE: Odd problem with HPE smart array and sanboot
OK, now that we understand that the problem is MAAS doing something nasty, try this:

Code:
#!ipxe
# Boot the locally attached hard drives. On failure try the next locally
# attached hard drive. Fail on the last hard drive, if booting fails.
sleep 3
sanboot --no-describe --drive 0x80 ||
sleep 3
sanboot --no-describe --drive 0x81 ||
sleep 3
sanboot --no-describe --drive 0x82 ||
sleep 3
sanboot --no-describe --drive 0x83

But I am starting to think the problem is just before this step... describe the sequence of events (or link to video of the boot sequence) that gets us to a black screen. Then describe how you use iPXE to hit CTRL-B. I'm thinking MAAS isn't sending a DHCP command to iPXE somewhere which is why it is just sitting there.

"Thus far, you have been adrift within the sheltered harbor of my patience..."
