Hello. I failed to install CentOS by uefi boot mode. Could you give me some suggestions? Thanks in advantage. Here are details:
1) Cobbler server :2.6.11 (installed on CentOS 7.2) 2) I am installing CentOS 7.2 on my Thinkpad T430 laptop (PXE client). 3) The variable "filename" in dhcp.template is default value as below:
class "pxeclients" { match if substring (option vendor-class-identifier, 0, 9) = "PXEClient"; if option pxe-system-type = 00:02 { filename "ia64/elilo.efi"; } else if option pxe-system-type = 00:06 { filename "grub/grub-x86.efi"; } else if option pxe-system-type = 00:07 { filename "grub/grub-x86_64.efi"; } else { filename "pxelinux.0"; } }
When PXE client boot in legacy BIOS mode, the cobbler worked correctly and installed OS successfully. But when I set the boot mode UEFI only, it hanged after got IP address by DHCP and downloaded NBP file. The last message is as below:
Start PXE over IPv4.
Station IP address is 192.168.1.133 Server IP address is 192.168.1.172 NBP filename is grub/grub-x86_64.efi NBP filesize is 243679 Bytes Downloading NBP file... Succeed to download NBP file.
Thanks very much!

Hi
now I test in vmware workstation,
install cobbler 2.8 in centos 7.3. also have same problem.
how to solve it?
You might want to try updating the Cobbler loaders, the EFI bootloaders have been updated recently. Try using `cobbler get-loaders` or download them manually from https://github.com/cobbler/cobbler-loaders and place them in /var/lib/cobbler/loaders
Hope this helps!
Cheers, Jörgen

because I test in vmware workstation,
https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/5046
add else if option pxe-system-type = 00:09 { filename "grub/grub-x86_64.efi";
below is my dhcp template.
class "pxeclients" { match if substring (option vendor-class-identifier, 0, 9) = "PXEClient"; if option pxe-system-type = 00:02 { filename "ia64/elilo.efi"; } else if option pxe-system-type = 00:06 { filename "grub/grub-x86.efi"; } else if option pxe-system-type = 00:07 { filename "grub/grub-x86_64.efi"; } else if option pxe-system-type = 00:09 { filename "grub/grub-x86_64.efi"; } else { filename "pxelinux.0"; } } }
