You might've encountered a bug when using that many multiboot modules. Maybe there is some internal iPXE threshold that was overrun. But why do you need to load all of these drivers? Aren't they bundled in one of the other initrd images you already load? You don't really need to load that many non-standard drivers, do you? I'd suggest try with the minimum amount of modules loaded and see if that works for you. Another ESXi user reported that the script I gave as an example worked for him (without any additional modules). You can also try injecting an "imgstat" command right before the "boot" command to see that all of your modules are loaded properly and tboot.b00 is actually still set as the image to boot (look for the SELECTED tag). But to actually be able to see the entire output you would need serial or syslog console enabled. See http://ipxe.org/console for more details on that. -- Robin _______________________________________________ ipxe-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ipxe.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/ipxe-devel
