Is your VM currently running? stop it and retry. You cannot change
settings while the VM is running

In VB, select your fai server VM, the click on “Network”. VB is weird
because you have to click on the word “Network”, not on the icon.
This brings up the Networking menu. Between the menu bar at the top
and the particulars for the interface below is a line of adapters.
Just select “Adapter 1”, " Adapter 2” and configure away.
Note that you can change the MAC address here also, and for clients it
mush match what is in the dhcpd.conf and the boot config file in
/srv/tftp/fai/pxelinux.cfg

Thank you all for your replies! =)
I’m running 5.0.10 r104061 on latest OS X on MacBook Pro.
Everything to see in syslog with -vvvv in the tftp options is
nothing, just the dhcp info.
daemon.log is silent as well.
I think as well that there’s any conflict regarding the built in tftp
server from vbox.
But Ron, you are not fitting in the over all experience =)
Prob I have is I just can choose one adapter in this box; there’s no
add option I could see.. any hint?
Adding it on the faiserver or via vbox?
Thank you!

I’m working with this setup right now. TFTP seems to be working fine.
I’m using “Internal Network” for the installation clients. The fai
server has two networks, the same “Internal Network” to boot the
clients on and bridged network to get to it from the VB host.
You MUST have a wired, not WI-FI network because the bridged network
will not work over WI-FI for most if not all WI-FI chips. I’ve
never gotten it to work using a NATed network to the host, and I
don’t know why.
Also, my VB host is a Mac Mini running the latest OSX.
Make sure you are running a VB version 5+ as it’s MUCH faster than
earlier versions.
Host this helps.

Now is someone could tell me why the client boot fails on the first
boot from the hard drive, that would be great.

Hi all,
Thomas went through all steps with me for a couple of days.. and
we both come the conclusion
that Virtual Box must be the culprit.
I’ve a faiserver as guest and want to pxe boot another guest; the
client gets an IP address but not the pxelinux.0
Connecting locally on the faiserver with a tftp client the
download works, hence the tftp server works.
Does anyone know about this problem with/among VBox guests among
each other?
I checked all kinds of network VBox offers: Nat, Nat network,
Internal Network, Bridged.. no way.
Thanks so much!
Best,
Chris
