Hi, our corporation uses the legacy netboot image for Focal. Recently something changed because the computers refuses to boot PXE with SecureBoot enabled.
After updating grubx64.efi & bootx64.efi the computers now boot into PXE menu but our entries have stopped working:
menuentry 'Deploy Ubuntu 20.04 LTS Desktop' {
gfxmode $linux_gfx_mode
linux /images/ubuntu/focal-20211013/amd64/linux $vt_handoff toram netcfg/choose_interface=enp0s31f6 url=http://pxe01.example.com/dev/pxe-boot/preseed/focal.seed auto=true hostname=unassigned nomodeset ---
initrd /images/ubuntu/focal-20211013/amd64/initrd.gz
}
We are using the initrd.gz & linux from the legacy netboot image. Are these no longer being updated? Is that why we get this error message:
error: /images/ubuntu/focal-20211013/amd64/linux has invalid signature.
error: you need to load the kernel first.
Any help would be appreciated. Not sure how we can use the live server image with a preseed file. Can’t find any documentation on that. I tried creating a entry for the live server image without a seed file. But then it wouldn’t download the 900MB ISO, it stalled at 405MB.
menuentry 'Ubuntu 20.04 Liveserver' --id ubuntu-server_1804 {

}
