iPXE install questions #1766

Description

@mazmar

I am giving up on trying to figure it out myself and need your help. No matter what I try i am never successfull with iPXE install of the iso image.

We have company netboot.xyz running on our network and I am able to modify the menus and assets but I am not able to install/use suse manager

I've tried extracting the iso as assets and run these commands in ipxe with no luck

#kernel ${base}/vmlinuz initrd=initrd root=live:${base}/rootfs.squashfs rd.live.overlay.overlayfs=1 console=ttyS0,115200n8 elemental.registration.uri=${reg-url} elemental.install.device=/dev/sda elemental.install.reboot=true
#kernel ${base}/vmlinuz rd.neednet=1 ip=dhcp root=live:${base}/rootfs.squashfs console=tty1 console=ttyS0,115200n8 elemental.registration.url=${reg-url} rd.debug
#kernel ${base}/vmlinuz root=live:${base}/rootfs.squashfs rd.live.squashimg=rootfs.squashfs security=selinux enforcing=0 console=tty1 console=ttyS0,115200n8 elemental.registration.url=${reg-url} rd.debug

all of the kernel definitions ends up the same with rootfs not mounted
