Hi.
I'm trying to boot several live ISO's using my PXE-boot server and Grub
loopback. ISO's are fetched by Grub from an HTTP server on the same host.
* I can boot the kernels of all live ISO's through PXE+HTTP transfer.
* Boot process fails at mount-root stage, where rootfs will obviously be
mounted from the ISO. Error message is usually similar "could not find the
ISO" or "unable to find medium containing a live file system".
* A sample menu entry I'm using (thanks to previous answers from this list):
menuentry "Debian-testing-i386-lxde.iso"" --class gnu-linux --class gnu
--class os {
set root="http,192.168.2.100"
set isofile="debian-testing-i386-lxde.iso"
loopback loop0 ($root)/iso/$isofile
linux (loop0)/install.386/vmlinuz
initrd (loop0)/install.386/initrd.gz
As the first step of solving this problem: Is ISO modification the only choice,
or is it possible to boot a normal ISO by passing the correct parameters to
grub.cfg? I think the problem could be that ramdisk fails to be created when
PXE is involved.
