Why does my attempt at booting an EFI system via PXE end with it sitting at a "grub>" prompt?

Solution In Progress - Updated -

Issue

Even after following a resource like How to configure/setup a PXE server for UEFI boot for Red Hat Enterprise Linux? it still just stops at the "grub>" prompt. Even after adjusting permissions in /var/lib/tftpboot/ and /var/www/html/ and editing /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf it still does not work. What are we doing wrong?

Environment

  • A RHEL system acting DHCP/TFTP/HTTP server
  • An EFI capable system to perform the actual boot (whether virtual or physical)
