HAVE TO FIX FORMATTING
<b>NOTE:</b> This is for Fedora 14 ONLY and needs updated to reflect Amahi 7 specifics. Ok Netboot works, Now so now what?Let's try adding Parted MagicNow lets add parted magic to the menu and try booting it.__NOTOC__
----
= Step 1: Create share in amahi Amahi Dashboard: =*login ->Setup->Shares->New Share[[File:1-Createshare.PNG|right|500px|caption|]]Name: Call it tfpt/pxe or whatever you want
Location[[File:/usr/share/amahi1-netboot/tftpCreateshare.PNG|500px|caption|]]
*Note<ins>Name:This is where amahi-</ins> Call it ''' "netboot installs configuration files" ''' or ''' "pxe" ''' or ''' "tftp" ''' or whatever you want. I use ''' "pxe" '''.
<ins>Location:</ins> /usr/share/amahi-netboot/tftp '''NOTE:''' This is where amahi-netboot installs configuration files *If you browse this folder you should see:*<pre>boot.msg*logo.16 *menu.c32 *other.conf*f2*memtest *minirooot.gz *pxelinux.0*vmlinuz *pxelinux.cfg folder</pre>
= Step 2: Add Parted Magic entry to menu: =
- * Navigate into pxlinux.cfg folder - * Right click on "default" file and edit with notepad++. You should see:{|border="1"|
<pre>DEFAULT menu.c32
PROMPT 0
MENU TITLE --== Amahi Netboot Main Menu ==--
<nowiki># </nowiki> Exit the PXE stack and boot the local system
LABEL bootlocal
MENU DEFAULT

MENU LABEL PBA --->

*Should have the following structure
At the bottom paste the following:
{|border="1"

<pre>
LABEL pmagic MENU LABEL Parted Magic KERNEL imagesyour share/pmagicpxelinux.cfg/bzImage APPEND noapic INITRD your share/images/pmagic/initrd.img root=/dev/ram0 init=/linuxrc ramdisk_size=100000D
</pre>
|}
Note the paths after KERNEL & INITRD images/pmagic/
Save and close file.
Go = Step 3: Download Parted Magic : =*Download Parted Magic (scroll down a bit to get to the your share Create New folder called images PXE ZIP files and inside another new folder called pmagic so it has following structurechoose the correct one for your sharearchitecture): [http:/pxelinux/partedmagic.cfgcom/your sharedoku.php?id=downloads http:/images/pmagicpartedmagic.com/doku.php?id=downloads] *Right click=> 7zip->open or extract archive *Locate the files '''''"bzimage"''''' and '''''"initrd.img"'''''
*Copy them to the newly created folder: '''''your share/images/pmagic'''''
= Step 3: Download Parted Magic pxe zip file here: =http://partedmagic*Open virtual box.com/doku.php?id=downloads
right click=[[File:starttest.png|none|500px|]]<br> 7zip->open or extract archive
locate the files bzimage *Start''''' "test" '''''virtual machine and initrdshould display menu:[[File:menupmagic.img png|none|500px|]]<br>
copy them to the newly created folder*Select "Parted Magic" from menu and should display: '''''your share/images/pmagic'''''[[File:loadpmagic.png|none|500px|]]<br>
All done Open virtual box *It may take a couple of minutes to load into memory and boot into amahi netboot depending on your test virtual machine network connection and you should see a new entry:Parted Magicactivity
Choose it and it should immediately display[[File:<pre>Loading images/pmagic/bzimage.....Loading images/pmagic/initrd.img.........................png|none|500px|]]</prebr>It may take a couple of minutes to load into memory and boot depending on your network connection and activity
All that and not one bash commandline entry!
All that and not one bash command line entry!
= Works:=Go on to Netboot [[Netboot_for_Noobs_Tutorial_3|Tutorial #3 =]]

== Troubleshooting if it doesn't work: ==
* <ins>If you select Parted Magic and the screen just blinks</ins>
**Double check the KERNEL path in your menu entry:
<pre> KERNEL images/pmagic/bzImage</pre>
* <ins>If it starts and doesn't boot completely</ins>
**
double Double check the INITRD menu entry <pre>
INITRD images/pmagic/initrd.img</pre>
* <ins>Permissions problems: login as root in console or putty</ins>
<pre>cd /usr/share/amahi-netboot/
chown -Rc admin:admin tftp
chmod -Rc 755 tftp</pre>
* <ins>Still nothing, </ins>
