[syslinux] memdisk 3.62 problem / Loading boot sector... booting :(
Hello everybody, I want to boot my HP x86 PCs with a Norton Ghost 12 boot disk image via PXE. I followed all the steps but I have still the same message and the booted computer hangs always. 0- I created the boot image. 1- A folder named tftpboot and tpftpboot\pxelinux.cfg created. 2- The pxelinux.0 copied in tftpboot folder. 3- memdisk copied in tftpboot folder. 4- the image file (norton.iso) copied in tftpboot folder. 5- a file named default created in pxelinux.cfg. here is the configuration prompt 0 say booting... label boot kernel memdisk append initrd=norton.iso When the system boots, it is displaying dots (....) (I think it's expanding the image) and the memdisk begins to load. memdisk 3.62 command line: initrd norton.iso BOOT_IMAGE memdisk Disk is hard disk 0;25072K;C/h/s 50144/1/1;EDD on Loading boot sector... booting and the computer freezes. I tried this with all the image possibilities of Norton Ghost but it's still the same. Do you have any suggestion ? Thanks in advance. Mehmet
