Hello,
I'm trying to boot a Ubuntu Lucid PC (2.6.32-26 - GRUB2) using a chained
gPXE boot, it halts at "Booting from BIOS drive 0x80". I've tried
various machines, so I'm assuming it is a problem with the iSCSI image's
boot sectors or some other boot-related setup on the image. I can mount
the iSCSI drive without a problem. I followed the directions here:
http://www.etherboot.org/wiki/sanboot/ubuntu_iscsi2
I was hoping to see some logging showing the iSCSI connection, but I've
searched through /var/log on the iscsitarget and don't see any relevant
iSCSI activity. I also looked to see if there was any evidence of a
partial boot by looking at the log files on the iSCSI image (after
mounting on another machine), but nothing has been touched for days.
Various data is below. Any thoughts? Thanks in advance.

I created a .kpxe formatted rom using rom-o-matic.net following all of
the defaults except using the undionly NIC.
DHCP Server::dhcpd.conf:
host y {
hardware ethernet 00:1b:21:12:41:ff;
fixed-address 192.168.1.90;
option host-name "y";
if exists user-class and option user-class = "gPXE" {
option root-path
"iscsi:192.168.1.170::::iqn.2010-10.net.xxxx:mc-y.lun1";
} else {
option root-path "192.168.1.170:/nfsroot/mythfrontends";
filename "mythfrontends/gpxe-1.0.1-undionly-trim.kpxe";
}
}
