I found the error, the Linux RHEL image does not have iSCSI boot and a mapping.

Subject: EC2 iPXE boot of iSCSI Lun (complete message with attachment)

Hello,

I am trying to get a iPXE 1 GB instance to boot from an iSCSI volume.

The iSCSI volume has RHEL on it (I used dd to copy it from an EBS instance onto 
the FSxN ISCSI volume).
If I attach the EBS device to an instance, it boots just fine.  I can see the 
partitions and MBR on the iSCSI volume, which I have mounted to a temp server 
just to investigate.

My iPXE user data script is as follows;

#!ipxe
set initiator-iqn iqn.2010-04.org.ipxe:client123
sanboot 
iscsi:172.31.69.149::::iqn.1992-08.com.netapp:sn.4e1a726d7ce711ef8dbdb5f20130e1ac:vs.3

PXE seems to see the volume just fine, and boot proceeds until I get this 
screen (see attached).

It’s a hang - could this possibly be due to the device order? I am not sure how 
to proceed.

Thanks,

Randy Seamans
