Hi all


Hi all.
I have this working line in my Clonezilla Server: *

APPEND initrd=initrd.img boot=live union=aufs noswap noprompt vga=788
ip=frommedia fetch=tftp://192.168.30.51/lis/hp/filesystem.squashfsocs_prerun="busybox
tftp -g -r lis/hp/custom-ocs-1 -l /tmp/custom-ocs-1
192.168.30.51" ocs_prerun1="busybox tftp -g -r lis/hp/id_rsa -l /tmp/id_rsa
192.168.30.51" ocs_live_run="bash /tmp/custom-ocs-1" ocs_live_keymap="NONE"
ocs_live_batch="no" ocs_lang="es_ES.UTF-8" nolocales*

But when I put one or more ocs_prerun then the client don't work.
Like this: *

APPEND initrd=initrd.img boot=live union=aufs noswap noprompt vga=788
ip=frommedia fetch=tftp://192.168.30.51/lis/hp/filesystem.squashfsocs_prerun="busybox
tftp -g -r lis/hp/custom-ocs-1 -l /tmp/custom-ocs-1
192.168.30.51" ocs_prerun1="busybox tftp -g -r lis/hp/id_rsa -l /tmp/id_rsa
192.168.30.51" ocs_prerun2="busybox tftp -g -r lis/hp/script.my -l
/tmp/script.my 192.168.30.51" ocs_live_run="bash /tmp/custom-ocs-1"
ocs_live_keymap="NONE" ocs_live_batch="no" ocs_lang="es_ES.UTF-8" nolocales*

The client stay in the boot part: *

Trying to load: pxelinux.cfg/01-00-14-22-a1-53-85
Trying to load: pxelinux.cfg/C0A80146
Trying to load: pxelinux.cfg/C0A8014
Trying to load: pxelinux.cfg/C0A801
Trying to load: pxelinux.cfg/C0A80
Trying to load: pxelinux.cfg/C0A8
Trying to load: pxelinux.cfg/C0A
Trying to load: pxelinux.cfg/C0
Trying to load: pxelinux.cfg/C
Trying to load: pxelinux.cfg/default *

and never go on.

So, when I have two ocs_prerun it works, but whe I put three o more don't
work.

I think the line have a max number of character, but I not sure.

Can you please help me to fix it?.

Thxs.
