First of all thanks for the great work don on this tool.
I saw an issue with PXE booting winpe with bootmgr.exe over tftp.
The wim image takes a lot of time to load. With iPXE it takes about 7
minutes,
while with pxelinux.0 it loads in about 2, on the same setup.
gPXE takes way more, 30 minutes!
Does anybody have a clue on why that is?
Is bootmgr.exe using the TFTP, UDP, or UNDI API?
You can find out which one it is by building with
DEBUG=pxe_tftp:3,pxe_udp:3,pxe_undi:3. You'll get a very large number of
debug messages; it should be fairly obvious whether they're mentioning
PXENV_TFTP_*, PXENV_UDP_* or PXENV_UNDI_*
Thanks,
Michael
Michael,
I tried with debugging enabled, but all I could see is that bootmgr is
itself downloaded with PXENV_TFTP_*
and this is also taking longer. After that the console is painted with
a progress bar, and I can't see the messages.
Is there any other way to figure this out?
Thanks,
Alpar
