Bug Description
i boot ubuntu installer through iPXE like so :
#!ipxe
dhcp
set 210:string http://
chain ${210:string}
This worked perfectly with trusty, fails on utopic due to "cannot load ldlinux.c32" error (file is present on the server). On both architectures.
My take is that it's a pxelinux bug, although i found reports on it on other pxelinux versions, and not this one.
Steps to reproduce
- build ipxe from source with make EMBED=menu ; where menu contains the aforementioned content
- boot in qemu (qemu-system-x86_64 -kernel bin/ipxe.lkrn ) , obseve the problem
- s/utopic/trusty/g
- rebuild ipxe
- observe correct boot in qemu
