MX-23.1_386 does not start - MarkF - 10-17-2023
I have a problem with (the newest) MX-Linux for x86-systems. It does not start, maybe does not find files.
For an old Laptop with 32bit-CPU I have downloaded the newest MX-ISO: MX-23.1_386.iso (from https://sourceforge.net/projects/mx-linux/files/Final/Xfce/MX-23.1_386.iso/download). Ventoy is the newest 1.0.96. Other ISOs - e.g. Knoppix, Linux Mint, AOMEI-backupper are starting.
I have tried on 1/2 dozend PC, and always the same: Depending on the CPU with or w/o the mandatory option/cheat "forcepae" and disabling "quiet" and enabling the boot-messages: After a lot of booting-messages and
"Loading hardware specific modules ..."
some red error-messages appeared, beginning with
"insmod: can´t insert '/ventoy /mnt/squashfs/lib/modules/6.1.0.13-686-pae/kernel/drivers/md/dm-mod.ko': unknown symbol in module or invalid parameter"
"/prog/misc: No entry for device-mapper found"
and ending with
"TYPE:"
"b Block device"
"c or u Character device"
"p Namend pipe (MAJOR and MINOR are ignored)"
Followed by the message
"Scan usb,cd devices. Look for boot file(s) antiX/linuxfs"
"Filtered devices /dev/mapper/ventoy /dev/sr0"
"Retry for 15 seconds "
and then
"Fatal error"
"Could not find file antiX/linuxfs"
"Searched devices: /dev/mapper/ventoy /dev/sr0"
"Searched types: usb,cd"
"All block devices: /devsr0 /dev/sda3 /dev/sda2 dev/sda1 /dev/sda"
Then it stops and gives the choice to shutdown or reboot.
No difference when testing with "modern" PC and the default start-command-line.
What is the problem, what can I do?
Edit: I have additional tested the previous version MX-21.3_386 and this is starting (in normal mode) and working.

For me It work correctly in ventoy!
But you can try with https://github.com/a1ive/grub2-filemanager/releases/download/v7.4.0/grubfm_multiarch.iso
Copy this ISO on your ventoy partition, boot ventoy then boot ISO downloaded and now boot your MX.iso from grubfm.
Tested ok

Do you also use the MX-23.1_386 and the newest Ventoy?
As mentioned I have tested it with some PC and always this problem appears.
