Dear list,

I'm trying to boot GRML over ipxe's sanboot. It fails when mounting root: Begin: Mounting root file system ... (initramfs) Unable to find a medium containing a live file system

This is probably no surprise because sanboot is similar to booting using memdisk but without a download delay. mika wrote in "Booting ISO images from within GRUB2" (http://michael-prokop.at/blog/page/3/) "The good news is that Grml supports the memdiskfind/phram/mtdblock approach out-of-the-box." Meaning you do something like

modprobe phram phram=memdisk,$(memdiskfind) modprobe mtdblock

as mentioned here http://www.syslinux.org/wiki/index.php/MEMDISK#Linux. But memdiskfind returns nothing.

My ipxe config contains

:grmlsan sanboot ${url}/iso/grml32-small_2014.03.iso || goto failed

Any hints to boot Grml over sanboot?
