Brand new HP z420 (freezing at boot command Red Hat 5 kernels)

Hi!

Quote:I just have to ask, why are you running iPXE from PXELINUX? Usually I do it the other way around.

Because we have a large amount of clients (thousands) and lots of servers (citrix farms), which depend on pxelinux and our "default" menu.

We cant just switch to iPXE.

Currently we just use iPXE to develop an new install menu for our Red Hat Linux installations (trying to replace an old comboot menu).

Thats why pxe -> pxelinux -> ipxe kernel (with embed script, straight to apache/php webserver).

But somewhere in a near future, yeah maybe we can switch completly to iPXE (but that needs a lot of testing).

So you think my problems is because we have pxelinux first?
Ill put up my test system again (on a closed LAN), with a dhcp/tftp/http server handing out undionly.kpxe first, and iPXE user-class straight to web-server (Ill be back with updates in a few). With the same z420 to see if that makes any difference.
