PXE booting failed with "error: timeout: could not resolve hardware address." for installing Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7
Issue
- We followed the documentation [1] to build the TFTP server for PXE booting.
- I tried to install Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 with UEFI enabled, so shim.efi and grubx64.efi is used as the boot loader.
- But, it failed with "error: timeout: could not resolve hardware address."
