Good Afternoon,
As per the installation guide, section 30.2.2 I?ve created an efidefault file at /var/lib/tftpboot/pxelinux/pxelinux.cfg/efidefault
However, this file is never requested by the 64 bit PXE loader (bootx64.efi), as shown by tcpdump:
75 RRQ "/pxelinux/42272635-0011-5053-ACF2-82A100E615F2" octet tsize 0 blksize 512
59 RRQ "/pxelinux/01-00-50-56-A7-BA-BF" octet tsize 0 blksize 512
47 RRQ "/pxelinux/C13F3F6E" octet tsize 0 blksize 512
46 RRQ "/pxelinux/C13F3F6" octet tsize 0 blksize 512
45 RRQ "/pxelinux/C13F3F" octet tsize 0 blksize 512
44 RRQ "/pxelinux/C13F3" octet tsize 0 blksize 512
43 RRQ "/pxelinux/C13F" octet tsize 0 blksize 512
42 RRQ "/pxelinux/C13" octet tsize 0 blksize 512
41 RRQ "/pxelinux/C1" octet tsize 0 blksize 512
40 RRQ "/pxelinux/C" octet tsize 0 blksize 512
49 RRQ "/pxelinux/efidefault" octet tsize 0 blksize 512
I?ve worked around this by placing a separate efidefault in the root of the pxelinux directory - however this is undesirable as this means I have to maintain separate configs for BIOS and UEFI.
Does anyone know why this is not behaving as documented?
