    Hello,

    I've got a working pxe environment, now with latest pxelinux, 6.01. I can boot pxe to a menu I prepared with several options. The Clonezilla stable 486 (2.1.2-43) boots and works, but I can't make the other version (686-pae) to boot. pxelinux tries to load vmlinuz, then initrd.img, then says something like "invalid arguments". But the arguments are the same between both versions!.

    If I try a previuous version of pxelinux (4.04) the message is "invalid or corrupt kernel image". I don't think this is true.

    I also have problems with gparted live, so I don't think is a Clonezilla live-specific problem, but maybe there is someone out there with the same issue.

    By the way, thanks to the developers for their great work.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Jesus.

    I did not try PXELinux 6.01 here. However, I am sure PXELinux 5.10 work.
    Did you try PXELinux 5.10?

    Steven.

    Hi, Steven. Thanks for your answer. It's embarrassing, but the machine was right: the kernel file was corrupted. I guess the proxy or antivirus scrambled the zip files somehow.
    Sorry folks!
