10:13:41 <wikky> hi, how can I boot the triton/smartos installer on the head node over pxe on an efi system? all the ipxe configs that I could find, like the one on https://us-central.manta.mnx.io/Joyent_Dev/public/SmartDataCenter/triton.html or https://netboot.smartos.org/triton-installer/triton-installer.ipxe just serve an elf kernel which ipxe won't load on an efi system because it's not an efi binary. I would
10:13:43 <wikky> use the dvd but the server is a hp box and the ilo is on a management network that isn't connected to the internet and streaming 4.4 GB over a websocket over a vpn is seriously slow...
10:29:31 <tsoome> snponly.efi or ipxe.efi  but I'm not exactly sure about the location (is it in ipxe-release-20260122-20260122T041233Z-gb8f2d08.tgz?)
10:33:45 <wikky> doesn't seem to be in the tgz
11:16:44 <wikky> I did try ipxe.efi from ipxe.org but that also can only load an efi app
11:18:14 <wikky> but tsoome is gone :)
12:02:12 <wikky> tsoome: I tried chain-loading https://boot.ipxe.org/x86_64-efi/ipxe.efi but that doesn't help, the kernel is still a solaris elf and in uefi mode only efi apps can be loaded. trying to load an elf gives exec format error https://ipxe.org/err/2e0080
12:02:48 <tsoome> ipxe.org version does not help, it does not know how to deal with illumos kernel.
12:02:59 <wikky> indeed
13:20:17 <jlevon> the point being you need the special version of ipxe mentioned above.
14:20:51 <wikky> I figured that out
14:46:47 <danmcd> Thanks @tsoome and  @jlevon.
