Were you able to file it somewhere, then? I don't know what they mean by "file this issue as an interop issue". Would that be in DCPN? Or did you...

That should work, though it may not have been tested much. If has_ipv4_addr() returns EFI_SUCCESS the first time (and every time) it is called, DHCPv4 is not run. So if...

Hmm, that sounds familiar. Actually the only reason that mboot.efi has code that can initiate DHCP at all is that I hit an issue (even with dynamic IP) where, although...

I don't know if it works on HPE; I'll have to find time to try it. Deconfiguring the IP address before starting a bootloader might be a generic limitation or...

The bootloader doesn't work differently depending on its name.

It occurs to me that there's another option that may work for you. ESXi also supports network booting directly from the installer ISO image, if your UEFI firmware is new...

BTW, I looked at your SR 21206887703, and it seems that at some point VMware support could no longer reach you because your emails were bouncing due apparently to a...

Unfortunately I haven't found time to work on it. It would need a significant code change to mboot. ________________________________ From: vopop123 ***@***.***> Sent: Wednesday, October 12, 2022 5:57 AM To:...

I may have at last found a fix for this. I'm still testing, and it has definitely missed ESXi 8.0.3, but if all goes well it will be available eventually.

A fix is checked into VMware's internal repository and should become available in ESXi 9.0. It's not pushed to github at this time, but could be if that's useful.
