Follow-up Comment #3, bug #35193 (project grub): As you can see in Figure 2-4 in the specification (top of page 18)
http://download.intel.com/design/archives/wfm/downloads/pxespec.pdf the PXE client actually gets input from a variety of packets (DHCP server, DHCP proxy server, and boot server). All of these can contain various options. Section 2.4.1 specifies the precedence order between them. The existing grub code was entirely ignores the options specified in the boot server response. This caused the examples below to fail. The patch I wrote fixed this. Cheers! -Tyson PS: The patch was based on the latest version of grub2 in debian experimental at the time I wrote it because the first thing I tried when it didn't work was getting the latest version. I had assumed this was relatively up-to-date. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?35193> _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/ _______________________________________________ Bug-grub mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-grub
