Hi Andrew,
I can't confirm a root reason based on your information, perhaps you may
try to find a reason by yourself via the following docs:

http://wiki.libvirt.org/page/PXE_boot_%28or_dhcp%29_on_guest_failed  (Troubleshooting)
http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/13/html/Virtualization_Guide/sect-Virtualization-Virtualized_guest_installation_overview-Installing_guests_with_PXE.html  (User Guide)

If can't, please provide your version of kvm, libvirt, tftp, etc, and run 'virsh net-dumpxml br0' to dump your
network bridge XML configuration, and run 'cat pxelinux.cfg' to show your pxelinux configuration, thanks.

Subject: [libvirt-users] vm pxe fail

Hallo

I have a kvm vm that I am attempting to boot from pxe. The dhcp works perfectly and I can see the VM in the pxe server arp. but the tftp just times out. I don't see any tftp traffic on either the physical host or on the pie server. I am using a bridged interface. I have tried using several virtual nic drivers, several different mac addresses and several different ips.  on the physical host I can get the pxelinux.0 file from the pxe server via tftp and can clearly see that traffic with tcpdump.

Ive tried using various virtual interfaces.

I can pxe boot my physical hosts with no problems.

I can tftp fine from the physical host and see the traffic with ethdump

Here is the terminal output from the VM: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/98200887/Screen%20Shot%202012-08-15%20at%206.41.12%20PM.png

Thanks,

Andrew
