      Description

      I am trying to add CloneZilla to the FOG PXE menu and can’t find anything on google that works on the newer fog version. Everything is on the older fog and the method to add to PXE is different. From the clonezilla website, they say use this label Clonezilla-live
      MENU LABEL Clonezilla Live (Ramdisk)
      KERNEL vmlinuz
      APPEND initrd=initrd.img boot=live username=user union=overlay config components quiet noswap edd=on nomodeset nodmraid locales= keyboard-layouts= ocs_live_run=“ocs-live-general” ocs_live_extra_param=“” ocs_live_batch=no net.ifnames=0 nosplash noprompt fetch=tftp://$serverIP/filesystem.squashfs

      I tried convering that, but I only get a kernel panic when trying to boot, or just gives error when I try to edit it more…

      kernel vmlinuz
      initrd initrd.img
      imgargs boot=live username=user union=overlay config components quiet noswap edd=on nomodeset nodmraid locales= keyboard-layouts= ocs_live_run=“ocs-live-general” ocs_live_extra_param=“” ocs_live_batch=no net.ifnames=0 nosplash noprompt
      imgfetch filesystem.squashfs
      boot

      Can someone please help me. I added vmlinuz, initrd.img, filesystem.squashfs from clonezilla zip to /var/www/fog/service/ipxe

      THANKS!!

          To your imgargs line, I might suggest adding initrd=initrd.img

          You might also try this:

          initrd http://${fog-ip}/path/in/browser/form/initrd.img
imgfetch http://${fog-ip}/path/in/browser/form/filesystem.squashfs
chain -ar http://${fog-ip}/path/in/browser/form/vmlinuz boot=live username=user union=overlay config components quiet noswap edd=on nomodeset nodmraid locales= keyboard-layouts= ocs_live_run=“ocs-live-general” ocs_live_extra_param="" ocs_live_batch=no net.ifnames=0 nosplash noprompt initrd=initrd.img

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)

            <edit> Tom is right of course. Please follow his guidance. </edit>

            If you look at what FOG does to call remote linux kernels.

            kernel http://192.168.1.53/fog/service/ipxe/bzImage32 loglevel=4 initrd=init_32.xz root=/dev/ram0 rw ramdisk_size=127000 web=192.168.1.53/fog/ consoleblank=0 rootfstype=ext4 loglevel=4
imgfetch http://192.168.1.53/fog/service/ipxe/init_32.xz

            You see that it defines the http path to the files it needs. I’m not saying that is your whole issue but an issue.

              So I edited the whole block to read…

              initrd initrd.img
imgfetch filesystem.squashfs
chain -ar vmlinuz boot=live username=user union=overlay config components quiet noswap edd=on nomodeset nodmraid locales= keyboard-layouts= ocs_live_run=“ocs-live-general” ocs_live_extra_param="" ocs_live_batch=no net.ifnames=0 nosplash noprompt initrd=initrd.img```


and got kernal panic, not sure if that's what you meant for me to try and the paths like that.

                      What if you followed the original append line?

                      For example:

                      initrd http://10.0.0.233/fog/service/ipxe/initrd.img
