      @Quazz said in Parted Magic Boot Menu:

      initrd http://${fog-ip}/pmagic.iso
      chain memdisk iso

      Thanks for the suggestion. I’ve tried that, but I get the same thing.
      The FOG menu says ‘Magic Boot into Parted Magic’ as the option.

        @RobTitian16 I’m running through.

        Immediately there are a few things standing out.

        the kernel http://${fog-ip}/pmagic/pmagic/bzImage64 appears to actually need to be kernel ${fog-ip}/pmagic/pmagic/bzImage

        The initrd line should be: as you have it from what I can see. (for both of them.)

        The pmagic folder does not contain fu.img or m64.img.

        So

        From what I can tell, your Menu should look like:

        kernel http://${fog-ip}/pmagic/pmagic/bzImage edd=off load_ramdisk=1 prompt_ramdisk=0 rw vga=normal loglevel=9 max_loop=256 boot=live ip=dhcp noapic sleep=0 loglevel=0 keymap=us splash quiet
        initrd http://${fog-ip}/pmagic/pmagic/initrd.img
        initrd http://${fog-ip}/PMAGIC_2013_08_01.SQFS.cgz
        

        I’m running through a test as well just to make sure as I too have downloaded the 2013_08_01.

        Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG! Get in contact with me (chat bubble in the top right corner) if you want to join in.

        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)

          There is my working config.

          Parameters as text so less ability of typos.

          kernel http://${fog-ip}/pmagic/pmagic/bzImage64 edd=off load_ramdisk=1 prompt_ramdisk=0 rw vga=normal loglevel=9 max_loop=256 boot=live ip=dhcp noapic sleep=0 loglevel=0 keymap=us splash quiet
          initrd http://${fog-ip}/pmagic/pmagic/initrd.img
          initrd http://${fog-ip}/PMAGIC_2013_08_01.SQFS.cgz
          boot

            Thanks for the help so far, it really is appreciated! However, I’m still getting the ‘Magic: command not found’ error whenever I try to boot into Parted Magic. I think it might work if it wasn’t trying to use this Magic command, whatever it may be. I’m not really sure where it’s coming from…

              @RobTitian16 I need to see the whole thing man. Can you post a pic of your menu setup please.

                  @RobTitian16 Please update fog.

                  The issue, as far as I can tell, is the space you most likely have in the name portion of the menu information.

                    @Tom-Elliott Doh… thanks for that!
                    I’ve just tried booting and it starts to look okay, but now I’m stuck on ‘Booting the kernel.’

                      @RobTitian16 mine is under my Advanced Menu but works great like this:
                      :parted
                      initrd ${boot-url}/iso/pmagic.iso
                      chain memdisk ||
                      echo failed to boot
                      prompt
                      goto MENU

                        @Tom-Elliott I’ve just updated FOG to the latest version but I’m still stuck on ‘booting the kernel’, unfortunately.

                          @Andy-Abplanalp Thanks for this! I’m guessing I just need to create an /iso/ folder, assign the permissions and then transfer the pmagic iso over to it?

                              @Andy-Abplanalp You sir, are a life saver. Thank you very much!
                              I assume I just add more lines like initrd ${boot-url}/iso/pmagic.iso if I want to use other ISOs?

                                @RobTitian16 That’s what I’ve done, yes. I discovered, by luck, that not appending anything to memdisk works for certain ISOs. I use Parted Magic frequently, so I was happy to get it working. I’ve never seen this documented anywhere…glad you’re working!
