Hello,
i'm using grml the first time, and i run in some problems. I followed this guide http://wiki.grml.org/doku.php?id=terminalserver to boot grml via pxe. My default config-file looks like this: ----- LABEL grml KERNEL linux26 APPEND root=/dev/nfs rw nfsroot=main:/nfs/grml boot=live lang=us nomce quiet apm=power-off nodhcp noprompt noeject initrd=minirt26.gz vga=791 ----- I copied the linux26 and the minirt26.gz file to my tftpboot-directory. PXE-booting worked before. I mounted the grml-medium_2009.10.iso using 'mount -o loop' to /nfs/grml. This path (/nfs) is entered in the /etc/exports and works fine.
While booting, i get the message: ------ Could not find kernel image: linux ------ If you look above in my default the kernel is set this way: KERNEL linux26
so, i first don't unterstand the sense of this message, because the kernel is named: linux26 Second, after renaming linux26 into linux, this message don't occurs, but the system is going down, soon.
Someone who knows the resons?
Thanks, Martin

pxelinux (or syslinux for this matter) - by default - does not boot the first specified kernel configuration, but tries to boot a kernel called "linux". You can specify an alternate label by using the DEFAULT statement in your cofniguration file. See http://syslinux.zytor.com/wiki/index.php/SYSLINUX#DEFAULT_command for details.

Ok,
know it boots, but during booting the message ------ kernel-panic - no syncing: unable to root nf on block ... ------ and the system shuts down.
Any idea?
Thanks, Martin

There are multiple possible reasons for this. Make sure you're using the correct initrd, and try specifying the NFS server by IP instead of by name. If this doesn't help, provide the last 25 lines of kernel output, possibly by making available a physical screenshot (with large enough resolution) or a virtual one (depending on your setup).
