How to: Modify the PXE boot menu to allow the booting of .iso files
-
Thank you.
It works, but only if the ISO is in the “www/fog” directory.
If I create an own directory “www/ISO” and set chmod to 777 it does not work. -
i keep my ISO files in a separate folder from www/fog, and it works fine and my permissions are set to 644.
have you tried testing the location you put into the “advanced” menu in a browser? it should ask if you want to download the file. -
Yes i tried testing the location in Chrome/Firefox/IE. I tried setting the permissions to 644 either.
I get the following error message: “[SIZE=4][FONT=Times New Roman][COLOR=#000000]The requested URL … was not found on this server.”
[/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE] -
if the files are within your web root, and you can’t download them with a browser, then you almost certainly have the URL wrong. keep in mind that anything past the first / is case sensitive
-
Yes I know that. I checked it several times. The URL is not wrong.
I will do some more research tomorrow. -
if you provide a copy of what you put in your advanced boot options, i can help you troubleshoot it
-
What is the document root of the server? Is it /var/www or /var/www/html?
-
Yes, the DocumentRoot is /var/www/html.
If I try to post my advanced configuration options it’s marked as spam.EDIT: I changed the DocumentRoot to /var/www and the chmod of my folder to 777. Now it’s working.

What is the file that I have to use.
In syslinux-6.00.tar.bz2, into the directory memdisk there are many files called memdisk memdisk.:eek: -
none of those if you’re using fog 1.0+

there is a memdisk file located in <fog-web-root>/service/ipxe/memdisk -
I´m using fog 0.32. There are memdisk in /tftpboot.
Can I use that file? -
I´ve used memdisk from /tftpboot and it worked with fog 0.32:)
