Linux Recovery Media doesn't find filesystem.squash from PXE Server

[SirNibo]

Hi,

we have a running PXE Server and we want to boot the linux recovery media from it.
But the initramfs doesn't get a IP Adress and because of this doesn't find the filesystem.squashfs.
But shows the correct Interface and MAC.



Here is our pxelinux.cfg

Code: Select all

LABEL veeam-recovery-4.19.0-18-amd64
MENU LABEL ^Veeam recovery 4.19.0-18-amd64
KERNEL /veeam/x64/vmlinuz-4.19.0-18-amd64
APPEND initrd=/veeam/x64/initrd.img-4.19.0-18-amd64 usbcore.autosuspend=-1 vga=773 video=auto boot=veeam-live ip=dhcp quiet fetch=tftp://192.168.188.4/veeam/x64/filesystem.squashfs

LABEL veeam-recovery-5.10.0-0.bpo.9-amd64
MENU LABEL ^Veeam recovery 5.10.0-0.bpo.9-amd64
KERNEL /veeam/x64/vmlinuz-5.10.0-0.bpo.9-amd64
APPEND initrd=/veeam/x64/initrd.img-5.10.0-0.bpo.9-amd64 usbcore.autosuspend=-1 vga=773 video=auto boot=veeam-live ip=dhcp quiet fetch=tftp://192.168.188.4/veeam/x64/filesystem.squashfs

I tried the ip=frommedia instead of ip=dhcp parameter, but doesnt work either.

Best regards

Hello,
and welcome to the forums.

But the initramfs doesn't get a IP Adress and because of this doesn't find the filesystem.squashfs.

I think it's the other way around... the file system cannot be found, because there is no IP address.

Best regards,
