PXE error

Hello everybody

I see this error randomly after PXE boot:

the problem is not seen after restart 2-3 times

Also, see this pic

Starting with MAAS 2.5 the kernel, initrd, and SquashFS are all downloaded over HTTP from nginx when using PXELinux. Is this a virtualized machine? We are currently investigating a bug which occurs when booting a virtual machine with 2048M of RAM. Could you try using a different size?

Hello. We are also seeing the same error here (first picture), every boot. My environment is a brand new 2.4.2 combined region+rack install on a fewsh Ubunt 18.04, and this is the first PXE client machine we powered on.

Hi

please update to maas 2.5
and also use more ram on machine

In our case there was a latent cobbler PXE boot server discovered on the subnet which was sending outdated network configuration info to the kernel.
