I’m not going to assist with this further.

Why you ask yourself expectantly?

You’re requesting we download files, but hosting through not necessarily good sources. This leads me to think you’re attempting to gain access to systems.

I’m not saying this is WHAT you are actually trying to do, but I’m not going to download files from those links.

Next reason,

You’re making requests and saying, it’s not working. And the only “information” you can give is “you give it a try”?

MMMMMMMMM sounds sketchy to me.

If you want help, provide information in a more detailed nature such as “This error is happening.” Or upload screenshots of the problems your having.

MOD’s, if you can Please remove the links from the posts (or David you can) as they are known “bad” sites.

Try this link: it’s built from 6.02 syslinux:

[David Majcher]

Can you do this week … ?

[Tom Elliott]

I have not rebuilt a memdisk kernel for this yet, and I’m sorry.

[David Majcher]

Hi boys …
On this link is a instrucion to install xenserver from citrix with wds

[url]http://www.syslinux.org/wiki/index.php/WDSLINUX[/url]

It is also necessary to have these files as the XenClient …
My files is maybe bad …

[David Majcher]

When i send you xenclient iso image do you test in your fog ? I’ll Lead if my fog is 100 % corect .

Thanks

Please send my your memdisk file on my email [EMAIL]majcher@tcx.sk[/EMAIL]

Thanks[/quote]

I can attach my memdisk file, but I don’t think it’s going to make a difference. Since you’re using PXE boot I think the constraints are in how the memdisk is built. I’ll build a brand new memdisk from the latest kernel source that should have VM support as well. I think this is where your problem lies at the moment.

ISO = 850 MB
testing on 3 machines
1, VM Hyper V - 1024 MB ram (enlarge to 2048 MB)
2, VM VMware - 1024 MB ram (enlarge to 2048 MB)
3, HW Dell Laptop 4096 MB ram

Screenshot is for VMware …
at all the same end…

[Tom Elliott]

How big is the ISO file? How much memory does your system have available? Is there more memory available than the size of the ISO?

Tom when i set :

but not in a good end
[code]LABEL fog wiki
MENU MASTER PASSWD password
kernel fog/nxtopengine/vmlinuz

helped but it stops at this screen(picture2) …

MENU MASTER PASSWD password
kernel fog/nxtopengine/vmlinuz
append iso initrd=fog/nxtopengine/[COLOR=#ff0000][SIZE=5]nxtopengine.iso[/SIZE][/COLOR] raw[/code]

when i write on initrd position iso image name than boot stop on ready (picture3)

I have no more ideas …[/quote]

You should have a file called memdisk located in:
/tftpboot/memdisk

If not, you can download any one.

vmlinuz is a kernel and would need an initrd to load to.

Because the iso is NOT an initrd, this is why you’re getting the initramfs command line.

You’ll likely need to change the entires to either:
[code]LABEL fog wiki
MENU MASTER PASSWD password
kernel fog/nxtopengine/vmlinuz
append initrd=fog/nxtopengine/initrd.img[/code]

OR

[code]LABEL fog wiki
MENU MASTER PASSWD password
kernel memdisk
append iso initrd=fog/nxtopengine/nxtopengine.iso raw[/code]

I imagine someone will be able to help I know others in the past have been successful in booting citrix stuff directly from the pxe boot menu, I hope one of them will stop by, in the mean time, I would look at how your menu call is different from the information in [url]http://fogproject.org/wiki/index.php?title=Include_any_ISO_in_the_FOG_Bootmenu[/url]

This should help you to better understand how things need to be laid out so that it can be displayed an accessed properly.

I’m glad your FOG server is working properly, hopefully someone who has actually added menu items in 0.32 can chime in.

P.s. you can use the memdisk file from one of your other pxe boots that fog uses ;)

The video guide you posted should suffice, I would use the wiki for reference as well.
