No boot filename received DHCP Hangs
Posted: 26 Apr 2016, 12:53
Hi!
I installed Porteus Kiosk on a 512MB flash card for a MaxTerm MaxSpeed industrial PC. I was able to successfully boot off of the card on a newer PC, but when trying to boot on the MaxTerm, the boot gets stuck when trying to get an address from the DHCP server. It then says PXE-E53: No Boot filename recieved and bootloops. I see the computer on my Windows DHCP server and it has a very long MAC address. I have tried running normal Porteus, and get the same error, but the it boots up anyway and is connected to the network.
I'm assuming the problem is that it can't download the configuration during boot because it cannot make a connection to the network during boot. Is there an option I need to change or could the PC be too old to boot PXE?
Thanks!
