Re: Boot/Install from iso file

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Isn't there anyone that tried to do that?  :-)
Taking into account that Fedora is a distro that is always searching to be on the cutting edge: Don't you think that is somewhat annoying and a thing of the past to install from a usb stick (and not to mention from CD)?
It could be nice to download the Fedora ISO to local drive and to install from it in a straightforward fashion... and to rely on some grub alchemy,
It could be nice that you could tell the installer where do you have the iso file and install using it..
Yes I know, it sounds crazy, but sometimes nice things are born so...
Greetings

Hi!
I have the following /etc/grub.d/40_custom file:
#!/usr/bin/sh
exec tail -n +3 $0
# This file provides an easy way to add custom menu entries.  Simply type the
# menu entries you want to add after this comment.  Be careful not to change
# the 'exec tail' line above.

menuentry "Start Fedora-KDE-Live 33" --class fedora {
 set isofile="/Fedora-KDE-Live-x86_64-33-1.2.iso"
 loopback loop (lvm/fedora-home)/sergio/Descargas/Distros$isofile
 linuxefi (loop)/isolinux/vmlinuz iso-scan/filename=${isofile} root=live:CDLABEL=Fedora-KDE-Live-33-1-2  rd.live.image
 initrdefi (loop)/isolinux/initrd.img
 }
EOF


I have used that configuration a few years ago, but now it does not work. If I choose that grub entry the screen goes black and I have to reboot. Is there something wrong in my custom file?

Thanks in  advance!
