Hi, I have been having a great time with clonezilla. I just ran into my first imaging problem. I have a nx9010. I press the F12 to get it to boot from the network and I get a PXELinux 3.36 and then lower it says it is trying to load pxelinux.cfg then at the bottom it says.

That is where it sits. I tested another laptop real quick and it works and jumps int to take an image. Any idea? Or can I give you some more stuff?
Thanks

Thank you, that answers my question. I have another, can I create a boot disk or CD that will allow me to still boot into clonezilla and put the image on the server. Also let me boot multiple machines to restore that image from the server to them? If you just give me a link I will do the learning.
Thank You very very much

Well, I have a GPart/Clonezilla CD and I did an Etherboot and I got closer, but it gives me an error with the number and then atkbd.c: Spurious ACK on isa0060/erio0. Maybe I can use the samba or ssh.

Oops, I should explain more.
Did you mean to restore different images for some clients ? If so, only unicast mode is available. You can do /opt/drbl/sbin/dcs -> clonezilla-start, then choose "select-in-client", I think it might meet your need. BTW, there is a bug about this in drbl 1.7.11-24 and clonezilla 2.1.5.20. It's fixed in the newer versions in the drbl testing branch now.

Some network cards do have problem with pxelinux, and most of the cases are buggy chips. If your network card is sis900, as this:

you can follow this url

to make it.
However, for others, such as Marvell Yukon, it seems no workaround for it. For more info, check

About "let me boot multiple machines to restore that image from the server to them", did you check http://drbl.sf.net ?
