      @Tom-Elliott /dev/nfs is just something I copied from the initial example. I don’t really understand a lot about iPXE or how it works, or how nfs mounting is supposed to work.

        @Wayne-Workman Thanks, I’ll take a look at that.

          I noticed an additional detail: When I open a web browser to view my.fog.i.p/fog/service/ipxe/arch I can see all my files from the server but not from the computer I’m using as a client. Does anyone know what would cause that?

          Edit: never mind, that was an unrelated bug with the client.

            @Trixsta101 Here is my working Clonezilla setup.

            :CLONEZILLA
            kernel http://${fog-ip}/fog/service/ipxe/clonezilla/vmlinuz
            initrd http://${fog-ip}/fog/service/ipxe/clonezilla/initrd.img
            imgargs vmlinuz boot=live username=user fetch=http://${fog-ip}/fog/service/ipxe/clonezilla/filesystem.squashfs locale=en_US.UTF-8 keyboard-layouts=NONE
            boot || echo failed to boot
            prompt
            goto MENU```

              @jbonilla Just in-case anyone else is trying to get this working, I had to add “union=overlay” after the “filesystem.squashfs” portion to get it working on my server.

              :CLONEZILLA
              kernel http://${fog-ip}/fog/service/ipxe/clonezilla/vmlinuz
              initrd http://${fog-ip}/fog/service/ipxe/clonezilla/initrd.img
              imgargs vmlinuz boot=live username=user fetch=http://${fog-ip}/fog/service/ipxe/clonezilla/filesystem.squashfs union=overlay locale=en_US.UTF-8 keyboard-layouts=NONE
              boot || echo failed to boot
              prompt
              goto MENU```

                  FOG version : 1.4.4
                  OS: Ubuntu 16.04.2 X64

                I want to run a ubuntu 16.04 live iso using pxe on my client. I have read all the guides in this topic.
                I only managed to make the Hiren boot to work(only the mini windows works and not the linux enviroment). I have followed instruction from Biet Jeremie to fill in the advanced setting box for Ubuntu iso file. When I choose Ubuntu from the advance menu it loads the Ubuntu menu and when I choose:
                “try ubuntu without installation” it says it can not find the medium congaing the live file system.
                I have two problem:

                1. I don’t know if the instruction provided has changed from the date this was discussed?
                2. I’m not sure if I just need to copy the iso file from Ubuntu or I need to extract it in some folder?

                Has anyone got this to work?

                  @amir3161 Usually it’s better to open a new post as your question (Ubuntu 16.04, FOG 1.4.4) does not match the topic. Describe what you did, post your ipxe config and post a picture of the error.

                  One would think that if 14.04 worked as ISO 16.04 would also do. But maybe there is a difference. Read through this (talks about extracting the ISO because it does not boot otherwise) and open a new topic in case you still can’t make it work.

                  Web GUI issue? Please check apache error (debian/ubuntu: /var/log/apache2/error.log, centos/fedora/rhel: /var/log/httpd/error_log) and php-fpm log (/var/log/php*-fpm.log)

                    @Sebastian-Roth Thanks Sebastian. You are right! I was not sure if I should post here or create a new topic. I felt bad just to create another post while this was related to the same (kindda) issue.
                    I have followed the instructions in the link but still have problems. I will create a new topic and post dubug info there 🙂

                      Failing to get DLCboot ISO to boot through this method.

                      I have tried with the iso in 2 locations: /ISO/DLCD/DLC.iso and /var/www/service/ipxe/DLCD/DLC.iso

                      I keep getting similar errors. First I tried with your paramaters

                      :DLCD
                      initrd http://$192.168.25.66/var/www/fog/service/ipxe/DLCD/DLC.iso
                      chain memdisk iso raw ||
                      goto MENU

                      And I got this error:

                      0_1516121546758_fogfail2.PNG

                      Then I tried with

                      :DLCD
                      initrd http://$192.168.25.66/var/www/fog/service/ipxe/DLCD/DLC.iso
                      boot || echo failed to boot
                      prompt
                      goto MENU```

                      and got this error

                      0_1516121652654_fogfail.PNG

                      Any help or suggestions on why this is timing out or what I am doing wrong would be greatly appreciated. Tearing my hair out with this one.

                      Thanks

                        @dylz Usually it’s best to open a new thread instead of reviving such an old one that most probably is kind of a different situation - see FOG 1.2.0 is very old and we don’t even support that anymore.

                        Not to your issue. See there is a $ sign in front of the IP address. http://$192...., remove that and you might see it working.

                          @sebastian-roth Thanks I’ll open a new thread. I tried removing the $ sign but it just takes me back to the menu.

                          The new thread has been opened up here
