AW: PXE boot with UEFI

[Frank Morawietz]

Many thanks Steffen and Merlin for your configuration details!
I learned a lot already and I believe that we are on the right track.

I included your suggestions into my  dhpcd.conf  .
According to the log output below it seems to select the correct file now.

But I still could not yet get it to work correctly.

In order to debug this I increased the tftpd verbosity level. And this is what I now get in daemon.log when I try again:

Dec  3 11:31:34 sysadm02 dhcpd[12875]: DHCPDISCOVER from 50:9a:4c:43:c1:b7 via ens9
Dec  3 11:31:34 sysadm02 dhcpd[12875]: DHCPOFFER on 10.250.217.16 to 50:9a:4c:43:c1:b7 via ens9
Dec  3 11:31:37 sysadm02 dhcpd[12875]: DHCPREQUEST for 10.250.217.16 (10.250.217.102) from 50:9a:4c:43:c1:b7 via ens9
Dec  3 11:31:37 sysadm02 dhcpd[12875]: DHCPACK on 10.250.217.16 to 50:9a:4c:43:c1:b7 via ens9
Dec  3 11:31:37 sysadm02 in.tftpd[13050]: RRQ from 10.250.217.16 filename fai/syslinux64.efi
Dec  3 11:31:37 sysadm02 in.tftpd[13050]: tftpd: read: Connection refused
Dec  3 11:31:41 sysadm02 in.tftpd[13052]: RRQ from 10.250.217.16 filename fai/syslinux64.efi
Dec  3 11:31:41 sysadm02 in.tftpd[13052]: tftp: client does not accept options
Dec  3 11:31:41 sysadm02 in.tftpd[13053]: RRQ from 10.250.217.16 filename fai/syslinux64.efi

10.250.217.16 is the installation client.

Any idea which read failed for tftpd ?
The syslinux files all are mode 644, so they are readable. Directories are 755.
What may refuse the connection for tftpd?

The "client does not accept options" does not express a problem. This message also appears when the install boot is successful (in legacy BIOS mode).

Best regards,
Frank
