Not too happy to revive this old thread ... Has anyone managed to UEFI/PXE boot CentOS6? I managed to find newer hw and have this working perfectly with CentOS7. With 6, however, I again cannot boot beyond a grub prompt. CentOS7 bootx64.efi does not work for CentOS6 as it complains "kernel too old". Booting with CentOS6 /boot/efi/EFI/redhat/grub.efi, and the older style pxe config file as per https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/6/html/installation_guide/s1-netboot-pxe-config-efi results in a grub (legacy) prompt on the target machine. _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
