Subject: Re: [CentOS-devel] PXE Boot CentOS 5.5 Live CD
Hi Krishnaprasad,
I saw your post about the same topic on the CentOS forum. When you
encounter bugs about the CentOS LiveCD, the preferred way to report them is via
a ticket on the CentOS LiveCD website (https://projects.centos.org/trac/livecd).
Could you create a ticket there please?
Thanks,

Hello,
This is regarding a query w.r.t CentOS 5.5 Live CD
Bootup from PXE server. From the CentOS LiveCD project webpage, i do see that
PXE booting of CentOS live CD is pretty simple as the ISO image itself is
carried inside the initrd.
I downloaded the "livecd-tools-014-8.src.rpm"
from CentOS repositories and created a new initrd image ( which contains Live
ISO image ) using "livecd-iso-to-pxeboot.sh" script.
# ./livecd-iso-to-pxeboot.sh
CentOS-5.5-i386-LiveCD-Release2.iso
This creates a new initrd by incorporating the ISO
image ( live ISO image ) with the existing initrd present in the live CD ISO
image.
But when i use this updated initrd from PXE
server, it says "Boot failed...press a key to retry or wait to
reset..." 
Here is the PXE entry:-
kernel vmlinuz0
APPEND initrd=initrd0.img
root=/CentOS-5.5-i386-LiveCD-Release2.iso rootfstype=iso9660 rootflags=loop 3
- where vmlinuz0 is the kernel image present in
the CentOS iso and initrd0.img is the updated initrd image created using the
script ( livecd-xxx-pxe.sh ). i.e. CentOS live ISO initrd with ISO image.
When the /tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/default is updated
with the above entries, then server gets restarted and in the next boot up
system shows an error, i.e. "Alert ! System fatal error during previous
boot"
any one have experienced same issues?
Thanks in Advance !
