ipxe/memdisk/http iso - Only rebooting - martysmarty - 2014-02-14 14:21

Hi guys,

I'm hoping someone can help me with an issue..

I'm using a usb drive to boot into syslinux. From there I can boot multiple ISO files from the USB correctly using memdisk

However, I also have some ISO's online. So I let syslinux boot into ipxe, it gets dhcp address, it downloads the files, and than, it just reboots. FOr about half a second there is some text scrolling, but to short to read anything.

I've tried several methodes of booting, but all have the same issue, on multiple PC's.

The code used:
#!ipxe
dhcp
initrd http://.../linux/debian-live-7.1-amd64-standard.iso
chain http://.../memdisk iso raw

Has anybody seen this before, or have a possible solution?

I would recommend that you build with serial or syslog debugging to see if you're able to figure out what (if any) error message is displayed before the reboot. See http://ipxe.org/console for more details on how.
