<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>

*Save the file.
*Create folder in your share called ''' "images" '''
*Create another folder in ''' "images" ''' called ''' "pmagic" '''
*Should have the following structure

Should display:[[File:loadpmagicpmagic.png|none|500px|]]<br>
It may take a couple of minutes to load into memory and boot depending on your network connection and activity
[[File:pmagic.png|none|500px|]]All that and not one bash command line entry!
 All that and not one bash commandline 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>
{{Code|<pre>cd /usr/share/amahi-netboot/
chown -Rc admin:admin tftp
chmod -Rc 755 tftp}}</pre>
* <ins>Still nothing, </ins>
