I am trying out SCCM 2012 RC2 on Windows server 2008 R2 and SQL 2008R2 (sp1 CU4) and cannot get PXE working. The client pc (actually a vmware VM ) boots - and then displayes teh following:
Architecture: x64
WDSNBP started using DHCP referral
Contacting server (myIP) (Gateway: 0.0.0.0)
no response from windows deployment services server
Launching pxeboot.com..
Press f12 for network service boot
I then press f12 and get the following:
connects to sccm and then goes into the Windows Boot Manager screen with the following error:
File: \Boot\BCD
Status 0x000000f
info: An Error occurred while attempting to read the boot configuration data
I have looked through everything I can find on Google and haven't found anything that helps yet. I have made sure both boot images are distributed to the DP, the task sequence is set to all unknown computer (this is technically a new VM, but I have tried to boot to a new Dell out of the box and it also will not boot). Below is some text from the SMSPXE.log file:
WDS was installed, although not configured (Per what I say, SCCM will configure it for you).
Option 66 is my SCCM server and 67 is SMSBoot\x64\wdsnbp.com. DHCP is on a different server. There is also only 1 subnet (VLAN) available so a relay agent shouldn't be needed. Any other things to look at / trouble would be appreciated.
