I am trying to PXE boot the VM in Proxmox but it not working as expected when i select the BIOS as OVMF (UEFI). PVE build is 8.4.0.

Tried creating the EFI disk without Pre-Enroll keys, added the VirtIO RNG , changed the boot order, but it pending during this step.

"Downloading NBP file..
NBP file downloaded successfully.
BdsDxe : loading Boot0001 "UEFI PXEv4 from PciRoot
BdsDxe : Starting Boot0001 " "UEFI PXEv4 from PciRoot
iPXE initialising devices "

It does not move forward after this.

The worked around was to delete the EFI disk " PXE boot the VM" and later change the Boot order to SCSI.

Am i missing anything ?
