    PXE booting Kubuntu

    Hi,

    I'm trying to boot the Kubuntu ISO using PXE. At this moment I'm trying to get it done using BIOS, but I also need to get it working under UEFI sadly.

    I hope someone can help me because I'm a bit confused on how this is supposed to work. I've been searching on Google and DDG for far too long, so I hope someone here is able to assist me. It always takes forever to load with lot's of network activity on the port. It seems to want to load the ISO file.

    Here is what I tried:

    Method 1:

    LABEL Kubuntu 19.04
    menu label Kubuntu 19.04
    TEXT HELP
    This should boot Kubuntu
    ENDTEXT
    APPEND iso raw initrd=/kubuntu-19.04-desktop-amd64.iso

    Result:

    Boot failed: press a key to retry, or wait for reset...

    Method 2:

    LABEL Kubuntu 19.04
    menu label Kubuntu 19.04
    TEXT HELP
    This should boot Kubuntu
    ENDTEXT
    LINUX /syslinux603/memdisk
    APPEND iso raw initrd=/kubuntu-19.04-desktop-amd64.iso

    Result:

    Boot failed: press a key to retry, or wait for reset...

    #2
    This actually boots the ISO file, but I get stuck. I get on the black Kubuntu screen with the blue logo, after that (takes a while) I get an error.

    LABEL Kubuntu 19.04
    menu label Kubuntu 19.04
    TEXT HELP
    This should boot Kubuntu
    ENDTEXT
    KERNEL memdisk
    APPEND iso
    INITRD /kubuntu-19.04-desktop-amd64.iso

    Error message:

    (initramfs) Unable to find a medium containing a live file system
