            why are you insistent on imgfetch and boot?

              sorry , my bad, my actual code is:
              [CODE]:MENU
              menu
              item --gap – ------------- Advanced Menu --------------
              item hirens10 Hirens Boot 10
              item hirens15 Hirens Boot 15
              item w64 Windows 7 64b
              item RETURN Return to the Top Menu
              choose --default RETURN --timeout 30000 target && goto ${target}

              :hirens10
              initrd http://${fog-ip}/iso/hirensboot10.iso
              chain memdisk iso raw ||
              goto MENU

              :hirens15
              initrd http://${fog-ip}/iso/hirensboot15.iso
              chain memdisk ||
              goto MENU

              :w64
              initrd http://${fog-ip}/iso/w764.iso
              chain memdisk iso raw ||
              goto MENU

              :RETURN
              chain http://${fog-ip}/${fog-webroot}/service/ipxe/boot.php?mac=${net0/mac} ||
              prompt
              goto MENU

              autoboot[/CODE]

              hirens15 not working ( tried with iso raw and without it )
              w764 not working ( tried with iso raw and without it )

                According to that post, they had to redownload the hirens-boot-cd and extract the files.

                My best guess as to why it’s not working, is it’s not loading the first bytes of the file. Can you try redownloading the file?

                  I did that with no changes, still getting the same response. Is there any way to pause the script? I think im getting an error message but it goes to fast

                        Did you get Hiren’s Boot CD 15.2 from [url]http://www.hirensbootcd.org/download/[/url] ?

                        When it was initially released my AV was quietly upset about it and corrupting the file.

                        Is the Hiren’s.BootCD.15.2.iso:

                        623,890,432 bytes

                              Add it into your boot menu after you try to load something, forces it to pause instead of dumping you out.

                              EDIT: Also, looks like your MD5SUM does not match the newer Hirens. Seems like you should go download that.

                                  To clarify,

                                  You’re still using 1.2.0
                                  your ISO is in /var/www/iso

                                  WHAT OS ???

                                  Hirens version 15

                                  Did you have to extract any files? If so, what files?

                                  And your working code:

                                    Now i have to ask, is this the hirens boot cd from their site or the revised hirens boot cd thats actually dvd sized at 3 gig? im trying to get the dvd iso to work… too many nice utilities in there.

                                      Hi everyone,
                                      I have tried to create an advanced menu for ubuntu 15
                                      Added the following to advanced menu

                                      :ubuntu15.04_64
                                      initrd http://${fog-ip}/${fog-webroot}/service/ipxe/iso/ubuntu-15.04-desktop-amd64.iso
                                      chain memdisk iso raw ||
                                      goto MENU
                                      

                                      It loads the iso from the network, ubuntu splash comes up and starts loading then I get this error message

                                      (initramfs) Unable to find a medium containing a live file system
                                      

                                      The iso is located in

                                      root@fog:/var/www/fog/service/ipxe# ls -lh iso/
                                      total 1.4G
                                      -rw-r--r-- 1 fog www-data 336M Jun 24 08:27 pmagic_2013_08_01.iso
                                      -rw-r--r-- 1 fog www-data 1.1G Jun 24 08:12 ubuntu-15.04-desktop-amd64.iso
                                      

                                      I’m looking at the menu below and it’s got extra options, does that mean I need to extract the iso to the ubuntu folder (in the example) or do I need to mount it to that folder on the fog server?
                                      Thank you for your help and sorry for replying to an old thread but it’s relevant to my issue

                                        @Pikmin I think mounting it somewhere in the web directory of your FOG server would be best. There is some sort of ‘mount loop’ command just for this…

                                        It’s something like this; don’t quote me on it… Might be best to do some Googling on it.
                                        [CODE]mount -o loop ImageName.img /path/to/mount/to[/CODE]

                                        You would then find where the Kernel and the inits are within that mount, and then specify those files in the menu, I THINK. Again, don’t quote me.

                                          Thanks Wayne,
                                          I had to change the vmlinuz to vmlinuz.efi
                                          It loads it and initrd.lz and gets to this part

                                          Begin: Trying netboot from 10.0.0.1:/var/www/fog/service/ipxe/iso/ubuntu ... Begin: Trying nfsmount
                                          -o nolock -o ro 10.0.0.1:/var/www/fog/service/ipxe/iso/ubuntu /cdrom ... mount call failed - server
                                          replied: Permission denied
                                          ...
                                          

                                          I thought it was maybe because when the iso gets mounted root is the owner and group owner, tried to mount as fog (1001) no luck

                                          mount -t iso9660 ubuntu-15.04-desktop-amd64.iso ubuntu -o loop,uid=1001,gid=1001 ro
                                          

                                          Just to clarify I am mounting the iso to /var/www/fog/service/ipxe/iso/ubuntu, ubuntu15 iso is in /var/www/fog/service/ipxe/iso folder

                                            @Pikmin Permission denied… is probably permissions related or firewall related maybe.

                                            I’d give the ISO 777 perms, then if it’s possible (idk because they are read only??) give the files that you mount 777 perms. This would only be temporary and for troubleshooting, of course. You can tighten the screws down later.

                                            Something like this:
                                            [CODE]chmod -R 777 /var/www/fog/service/ipxe/iso
                                            chown -R apache:apache /var/www/fog/service/ipxe/iso[/CODE]

                                            Also, because you’re mounting to the same directory that the ISO is in, it’s really confusing and I don’t know if that’s the problem or not… just confusing… It’s up to you but if it were me, I’d separate the two… The ISO itself doesn’t need to be in the web directory, just the mount point needs to be there.
