Hi,

I have HP Pavilion 11-n026br x360... whith UEFI. I put the iso file at /boot/grml/ and selected at boot, but I don't get no one message and it return to grub's menu...

Thanks for help!

At /etc/grub.d/40_custom I put:

menuentry "AntiX 2" {
set ISOfile="/home/luiz/baixados/2/antiX-17.2.1_x64-net.iso"
lookback loop (hd0,gpt8)$ISOfile
linuxefi (loop)/antiX/vmlinuz boot=live components config findiso=$ISOfile ip=frommedia toram=filesystem.squashfs union=overlay username=user
initrdefi (loop)/live/initrd.img
}

and get: command lookback not found...

I get antiX-17.2.1_x64-net.iso and tried edit /etc/grub.d/40_custom for a new installation...

This might work:

Code: Select all

menuentry "antiX-17.2.1 x64-net 14 November 2018 fromiso" {
   set iso_path="/ISO/antiX-17.2/antiX-17.2.1_x64-net.iso"
   search --no-floppy --set=root --file $iso_path
   probe -u $root --set=buuid
   loopback loop $iso_path
   set root=(loop)
   linux  /antiX/vmlinuz quiet splash=v disable=lxd 3 buuid=$buuid fromiso=$iso_path lang=pt_BR 
   initrd /antiX/initrd.gz
}

Adjust iso_path and lang accordingly.
