So this behavior is different from the errors you were seeing prior to this dhcp.pm change, where dhcpd.conf contained "http://<xCAT MN>:80/tftpboot/xcat/xnba/nets/<network>.uefi" for "else if option user-class-identifier = "xNBA" and option client-architecture = 00:09" ? Can you show what /tftpboot/xcat/xnba/nets/<network> file contains on your management node ?

Hello, it indeed generates the said dhcpd.conf: # diff -u dhcpd.conf.ORIG dhcpd.conf --- dhcpd.conf.ORIG 2021-09-06 16:53:48.593669122 +0200 +++ dhcpd.conf 2021-09-06 16:55:30.674659960 +0200 @@ -101,7 +101,7 @@ always-broadcast on; filename = " http://192.168.148.10:80/tftpboot/xcat/xnba/nets/192.168.144.0_20 "; } else if option user-class-identifier = "xNBA" and option client-architecture = 00:09 { #x86, xCAT Network Boot Agent - filename = " http://192.168.148.10:80/tftpboot/xcat/xnba/nets/192.168.144.0_20.uefi "; + filename = " http://192.168.148.10:80/tftpboot/xcat/xnba/nets/192.168.144.0_20 "; } else if option client-architecture = 00:00 { #x86 filename "xcat/xnba.kpxe"; } else if option vendor-class-identifier = "Etherboot-5.4" { #x86 but oddly enough, genesis kernel gets downloaded, then genesis root as well (...,tgz ok printed) printed as being downloaded but then kernel panics unable to mount root The error msg starts with: " Error parsing PCC subspaces from PCCT Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unkown-block(0,0) This is still with the beta efi xNBA you provided me (9f4bfa72c3187d45cba64c8dc56674ee /tftpboot/xcat/xnba.efi) Thanks for your help -- Thomas _______________________________________________ xCAT-user mailing list xCAT-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/xcat-user
