typo?
This is a copy/paste of my pre 11/26/2020 /etc/grub.d/40_custom
#!/bin/sh
exec tail -n +3 $0
# This file provides an easy way to add custom menu entries. Simply type the
# menu entries you want to add after this comment. Be careful not to change
# the 'exec tail' line above.
menuentry "CloneZilla ISO" {
# The string between " and " below is the actual name of the ISO file you just do>
# and copied to the /opt directory (where optional software resides) and is the c>
# version as of the last edit to this [HowTo].
set ISOFile="/opt/clonezilla-live-20201102-groovy-amd64.iso"
loopback loop ($root)$ISOFile
linux (loop)/live/vmlinuz boot=live components config findiso=$ISOFile ip=frommedia toram=filesystem.squashfs union=overlay
initrd (loop)/live/initrd.img
}
You downloaded the
.zipfile instead of the.isofile
I just checked again what’s in my /opt/ and I have:
clonezilla-live-20201102-groovy-amd64.iso
clonezilla-live-2.7.0-10-amd64.iso
My boot partition is encrypted with LUKS. My /opt/ directory is in my boot drive. I enter my LUKS password at boot, hold shift to bring up the grub menu, and then select CloneZilla ISO to be booted.
Is it possible that my LUKS encrypted boot drive might be preventing me from using the CloneZilla isos in /opt/ even though they should be decrypted at boot?
but you could do the same and report back in parallel
Now a copy/paste of my current /etc/grub.d/40_custom is:
#!/bin/sh
exec tail -n +3 $0
# This file provides an easy way to add custom menu entries. Simply type the
# menu entries you want to add after this comment. Be careful not to change
# the 'exec tail' line above.
menuentry "CloneZilla ISO" {
# The string between " and " below is the actual name of the ISO file you just downloaded
# and copied to the /opt directory (where optional software resides) and is the current
# version as of the last edit to this [HowTo].
set ISOFile="/opt/clonezilla-live-2.7.0-10-amd64.iso"
loopback loop ($root)$ISOFile
linux /live-hd/vmlinuz boot=live union=overlay username=user config components quiet noswap nolocales edd=on nomodeset ocs_live_run=\"ocs-live-general\" ocs_live_extra_param=\"\" keyboard-layouts= ocs_live_batch=\"no\" locales= vga=788 ip=frommedia nosplash live-media-path=/live-hd bootfrom=/dev/sda4 toram=live,syslinux,EFI
initrd /live-hd/initrd.img
}
Ran sudo update-grub:

Rebooted and selected CloneZilla ISO from the grub menu and I got:
error: file '/live-hd/vmlinuz' not found.
error: you need to load the kernel first.
Press any key to continue..
Then I get sent back to the grub menu.
