i have deleted cloned template and using default one but i am not getting. PXE Linux template in operating system
You have to associate the pxe template with the operating system.
i have associated operating system for below templates
we are getting below screen and which is rebooting itself it but not booting with software
really it would be great help if anyone suggest proceeding to move forward on it
If networking permits, I’d try to use the upstream Ubuntu repositories. I don’t immediately see any error in the screenshot of the host booting.
That’s just the end of the output of the host rebooting.
The relevant messages are in the beginning of that output which is not on the screen anymore…
Please let us know if required any information i am ready to provide on it, i am kindly requesting to get help on it
kindly see all attachments and suggest on it to get solution.?
Hey @srikanthm!
I just had a look at this thread and it’s kinda difficult to debug since there is no actual “error” occurring here.
Your templates seem to be assigned correctly now (thanks to @maximilian and @gvde). Still, you could have a look at the rendered version of your templates. Therefore, go to your host and print the rendered version by selecting “Review” on the “Edit” combo box:
If you have any questions on the rendered version of your template, you can post it here (please anonymize any crucial information about your machine/the network you’re working on).
If your host has an issue with the network setup, it might be related to the configuration within that template.
