what's wrong?

Hello zulinfi,

I was getting an error similar to yours earlier today.
I am booting Clonezilla Live over Ethernet.

Here is the script I use: https://github.com/jbirlingmair/my-ipxe-...menu2.ipxe

Code:

:clonezilla

kernel tftp://${tftp}/Clonezilla/vmlinuz
initrd tftp://${tftp}/Clonezilla/initrd.img
imgargs vmlinuz boot=live live-config noswap edd=on nomodeset ocs_live_run"ocs-live-general" locales=en_US.UTF-8 vga=788 keyboard-layouts=en nosplash fetch tftp://${tftp}/Clonezilla/filesystem.squashfs
boot || goto failed

The issue I was having was I needed to make sure to take the --keep off of the menu background.

Try this

Code:

kernel ${base-url}/boot/vmlinuz
initrd ${base-url}/boot/initrd
imgargs vmlinuz splash=silent,theme:default load_ramdisk=1 ramdisk_blocksize=4096 root=/dev/ram0 ramdisk_size=786432 console=tty1 vt.global_cursor_default=0 quiet loglevel=3 LM=3
imgstat
read void
boot || goto failed

That will allow you to see what images are loaded and which one is selected. If there is a PNG in there then you had the same problem as me.
The png was confusing the kernel.

That may be your problem if you are using the console command.
