I am having problem while booting Starlingx on iPXE on UEFI. It says malformed binary and does not allow me to boot afterwards. What should I do in BIOS to solve this problem?

I can boot Starlingx on other platforms using OEM BIOS.

Our platform is Intel Xeon Purley server. We are using EDK2 BIOS. I have added iPXE.efi to fdf file to enable PXE boot.

Any help or suggestions are appreciated.

From your screenshot: iPXE is starting up with no problems, is successfully completing DHCP and downloading the file bootx64.efi as directed by your DHCP server.

This downloaded file is the UEFI shim, and the error messages you are seeing are coming from shim (not from iPXE):

  https://github.com/rhboot/shim/blob/main/pe.c#L264-L286

It appears that shim does not think that your next-stage binary is valid. Unfortunately shim does not provide any information about what this next stage binary is (beyond the message "Fetching Netboot Image"), and so there is no further diagnostic information available in your screenshot.


Using shim's own netboot support in this way is strongly deprecated. Please instead use iPXE to load the kernel, initrd, and (if required) shim directly. Documentation is available at

  https://ipxe.org/cmd/shim

Thanks,

Michael
