I am having trouble using the menu example by Robin Smidsrød from https://gist.github.com/robinsmidsrod/2234639
I installed Ubuntu 12.04 that was in the menu installer, but I can not boot it. I made only the absolute minimum changes to the menu config to get it to work with my system. I used the ubuntu-install menu item to install ubuntu to an iSCSI target. I used the ubuntu menu item to boot the system. When I boot, I get the error: Booting Ubuntu from iSCSI for iqn.2005-10.org.freenas.ctl:f4:ce:46:bb:fd:38 Registered SAN device 0x80 Booting from SAN device 0x80 error: out of disk grub rescue> Thanks --Robert Nelson On Sun, Mar 6, 2016 at 10:59 PM, Robert Nelson <boardmaster...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hello, > > Partman-iscsi is just for loading the iscsi device automatically when you > get to the partition manager in the graphical installer. > I tried updating initramfs, but still no luck, I still get the same error. > > I have been trying to use this guide: > http://backreference.org/2013/12/23/diskless-iscsi-boot-with-pxe-howto/ > > But I can't seem to get grub to load properly, I still get: > Starting Hardware Identifier > Registered SAN device 0x80 > Booting from SAN device 0x80 > error: attempt to read or write outside of disk 'hd0' > Entering rescue mode... > grub rescue> > > Thanks > --Robert Nelson > > > On Sun, Mar 6, 2016 at 3:47 AM, Oliver Rath <r...@mglug.de> wrote: > >> Hi Robert, >> >> Ive seen, that you are using ubuntu alternate (or server) for install. >> My hints were for ubuntu desktop, where seems no direct support of iscsi >> now (only via open-iscsi package). >> >> Im not familiar with partman-iscsi, but it sounds really interesting. >> >> Regards, >> Oliver >> >> >> Am 06.03.2016 um 10:38 schrieb Oliver Rath: >> > Hi Robert, >> > >> > first, your ipxe config for installation looks good. >> > >> > You need to install the open-iscsi package into your ubuntu-installation >> > and update your initramfs.
