vbox-OSE: pxegrub won't start after successful transfer via tftp

Reported by: Vladimir Owned by:
Component: network Version: VirtualBox 1.6.0
Keywords: pxegrub SuSE OSE Cc:
Guest type: other Host type: other

Description

pxegrub won't start after successful transfer via tftp
from host in OSE (SuSE rpm) build,
while works fine with binary non-OSE (Sun xVM) VirtualBox
from suse-10.3 rpm package.

May be related: it seems OSE has single NIC driver linked in,
while configurator offers 3 various,
but ignores any selects, regards to last pxegrub message
before it hungs (see vbox-netconfig.png and vbox-pxeboot.png attached).

May be related: both PCnet LANCE NIC-s are pxe-booting in non-OSE vbox,
but, Intel 1Gbit card:

  • won't boot via pxe [grub], reporting attempt of use PCnet NIC;
  • won't show RX and TX packets counts, while ping and ssh to host work fine(!)

Pleas retry with the upcoming release 2.2.0 and reopen if the problem persists.

Don't forget to attach the VBox.log file of such a VM session in that case.
