    Hello all,
    I recently tried following [this tutorial] (http://clonezilla.org/livepxe.php) on booting Clonezilla 2.2.3 from my PXE server but to no prevail.

    Upon boot things begin loading as normal but then it gets stuck on a loop which displays the following error:

    ==trie on-disk==

    load module index

    unload module index

    modprobe: module ufs not found in modules.dep

    and finally boots me down to a root prompt which reads:

    /bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off

    (initramfs)

    From what I see it looks like it is having trouble loading the filesystem.squashfs file

    This is my PXE menu entry for loading clonezilla

    label clonezilla
    MENU LABEL CloneZilla (Disk Cloning)
    KERNEL http://10.0.0.250/tftpboot/images/clonezilla/live/vmlinuz
    APPEND initrd=http://10.0.0.250/tftpboot/images/clonezilla/live/initrd.img boot=live config noswap nolocales edd=on nomodeset ocs_live_run="ocs-live-general" ocs_live_extra_param="" keyboard layouts="" ocs_live_batch="no" locales="" vga=788 nosplash noprompt fetch=http://10.0.0.250/tftpboot/images/clonezilla/live/filesystem.squashfs

    The only things I changed from the clonezilla tutorial were my directory layout and loading the kernal image and squashfs image via http for faster load times. Otherwise I followed the tutorial exactly. I have no problems booting other live filesystems over my pxe server, Clonezilla seems to be the first giving me any issue.

    Hoping someone can give me some help on this, thanks!

    Did you try the latest Clonezilla live, even the testing one?
    Like
    20140624-trusty
    20140624-utopic
    or
    2.2.3-23
    on
    http://clonezilla.org/downloads.php

    Steven.

      Yup, I've tried Trusty and had the same issue. I have not tried Utopic though, maybe I will try that? I don't know if it is the version though

    I have tried an assortment of versions and still get the same error. I think i've hit a dead end here

    Not sure if the issue is on the kernel/hardware support issue or on PXE. Did you try to boot Clonezilla live via USB flash drive or CD?

    Steven.
