      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]

        [url]http://fogproject.org/forum/threads/hirens-boot-cd-15-2-hangs-with-loading-boot-sector-booting.12132/#post-39960[/url]

        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:

                          menu
                          item --gap – ---------------- iPXE boot menu ----------------

                            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.

                                      Oh… where did you do the mount part? in the menu? I don’t think that’s where it goes normally… maybe it’s possible, but probably not…

                                      You’d mount it permanently on your FOG server. Then, the host would access those files via Apache exactly the same way it would access the FOG kernel and init and such.

                                        I have mounted the iso from the server through a terminal, can’t give it 777 as it’s read only

                                        root@fog:/var/www/fog/service/ipxe/iso# mount -t iso9660 ubuntu-15.04-desktop-amd64.iso ubuntu -o loop,uid=33,gid=33
                                        mount: warning: ubuntu seems to be mounted read-only.
                                        root@fog:/var/www/fog/service/ipxe/iso# ls -l
                                        total 1467942
                                        dr-xr-xr-x 1 www-data www-data       2048 Apr 22 22:30 ubuntu
                                        -rw-r--r-- 1 fog      www-data 1150844928 Jun 24 08:12 ubuntu-15.04-desktop-amd64.iso
                                        

                                        The above didn’t work, as in didn’t get as far, the owner needs to be fog.
                                        I think the part I need to work out how to change is the nfs mount that points to /cdrom in the error message i posted below

                                          This is what it looks like after vmlinuz.efi and initrd.lz get loaded

                                            @Pikmin ISO9660 is read-only, you can mount it only on RO.
