      Hi members,

      I am new to fog project and trying to boot the clonezilla from it.

      I have created the menu entry and using the following parameters.

      :Clonezilla
      echo Starting CloneZilla with default options
      kernel http://${fog-ip}/fog/service/ipxe/clonezilla/vmlinuz
      initrd http://${fog-ip}/fog/service/ipxe/clonezilla/initrd.img
      imgargs vmlinuz boot=live config noswap nolocales edd=on nomodeset ocs_live_run=“ocs-live-general” ocs_live_extra_param=“” ocs_live_keymap=“” ocs_live_batch=“no” ocs_daemonon=“ssh” usercrypted=Kb/VNchPYhuf6 ocs_lang=“” vga=788 nosplash noprompt fetch=http://${fog-ip}/fog/service/ipxe/clonezilla/filesystem.squashfs
      boot || goto failed
      goto start

      :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

      I have got these parameters from Forum.

      Now when I am selecting the Clonezilla on boot menu it gives me the below error.

      0_1497877024604_error.png

      Please let me know that what is wrong with the config.

      Your help is appreciated.

      Regards,

        @deepak727 Tried it myself… This worked like a charm in a virtualbox VM:

        kernel http://${fog-ip}/fog/service/ipxe/clonezilla/vmlinuz
initrd http://${fog-ip}/fog/service/ipxe/clonezilla/initrd.img
imgargs vmlinuz 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=http://${fog-ip}/fog/service/ipxe/clonezilla/filesystem.squashfs
boot || goto MENU

        Your first two parameter sets were missing the very important union=overlay. The one you found on the clonezilla website was right, you just needed to exchange ‘http://’ for ‘tftp://’… So this works just as well for me:

        initrd http://${fog-ip}/fog/service/ipxe/clonezilla/initrd.img
chain -ar http://${fog-ip}/fog/service/ipxe/clonezilla/vmlinuz 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=http://${fog-ip}/fog/service/ipxe/clonezilla/filesystem.squashfs
boot || goto MENU

        It’s all about the right parameters.

        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’s two commas in a row in the error, that’s probably related. Most likely meaning there’s two commas somewhere when maybe there should only be one or none.

          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!

            Hi @Wayne-Workman

            Thanks for the response.

            I have checked in my configuration, I have no clue from where those two commas (noatime,dirs=live…) are coming from.

            You can see the parameters which I have posted, it doesn’t have those commas or a option of noatime.

            Regards,

                Hi @Junkhacker

                I have gone through the post and used the following code.

                initrd http://${fog-ip}/fog/service/ipxe/clonezilla/initrd.img
imgfetch http://${fog-ip}/fog/service/ipxe/clonezilla/filesystem.squashfs

                Now I am getting the below error

                  @deepak727 “junk in compressed archive” you may want to verify the integrity of your files

                    @deepak727 Which version of clonezilla are you trying to boot? Looks like different versions need different parameters… https://sourceforge.net/p/clonezilla/discussion/Clonezilla_live/thread/0f8505b0/ and https://sourceforge.net/p/drbl/discussion/Help/thread/a70b3897/

                    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)

                      I am using clonezilla 2.5.0-25 the latest stable release. On there website for the PXE boot options they are suggesting to have below settings.

                      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

                      But this is TFTP based

                      Ref : http://clonezilla.org/livepxe.php

                      and I am using this with

                      initrd http://${fog-ip}/fog/service/ipxe/clonezilla/initrd.img
imgfetch http://${fog-ip}/fog/service/ipxe/clonezilla/filesystem.squashfs
chain -ar http://${fog-ip}/fog/service/ipxe/clonezilla/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

                      Please let me know what should be correct parameters.

                      @Junkhacker

                      I have checked the file integrity and there is no problem in it.
