  • 1.  Issues PXE Booting BStrap.0 File in wrong location

    Posted Jul 23, 2015 02:40 PM

    I am having so many issues with PXE Booting that I hardely know where to begin.  I've made it far enough that now the machine is able to see the PXE server but thats as far as I've got.  The issue I am having now is that the client computer is looking in the wrong place for the boot file.  The DHCP Option 67 is set to BStrap\x64\BStrap.0 but the file that it shows in the log that the client is attempting to download is BStrapd\BStrap.0 for some reason.  The same goes for the x86 version, DHCP Option 67 set to BStrap\x86pc\BStrap.0 but client is looking for BStrap†pc\BStrap.0.  So I figured I'd just put the BStrap.0 file in to a folder called BStrapd or BStrap†pc and that got me further but then the client machine throws an error: PXEPreZero: Invalid PXE Server list format and thats where I'm stuck.  I don't know how to procede from here.  Any help would be much appreciated!

    Update:  Looking at the bottom of this article: https://support.symantec.com/en_US/article.TECH143159.html I noticed that it mentioned in passing that with this specific version of infoblox you may have to use double backslashes to get it to path correctly.  Setting Optoin 67 to BStrap\\x86pc\\BStrap.0 acually worked and now it is looking at the correct file in the correct folder.  I am still having the PXEPreZero: Invalid PXE Server list format error on the client.  From what I have found in the last hour I may need to set Optoin 43 on the DHCP server to a HEX value that will then use PXEForce or someting like that.  I will have our networking guy try that when he gets back in.  Still any sugestions would be useful at this point.  Thanks!
