[SOLVED] Rescuezilla : invalid magic number

[xuo]

Hi,

I've added the lastest iso version of rescuezilla (rescuezilla-2.1.3-64bit.groovy.iso) on my Ventoy USB key.
I can boot using this key and I can see the Ventoy menu where all my isos are listed.
When I select rescuezilla, I can see the starting menu of rescuezilla where I can select which application I want to use.
But each time I select any of them, I get the following error message :
error: invalid magic number
error: you need to load kernel first

Do you have any idea how to solve this issue ?

Regards.

Xuo.

Hi,

One more thing : when I copy the rescuezilla iso on another USB key, I do not have any issue.

Please checksum the iso file in Ventoy's menu. (not in OS)

Hi,

When running the md5sum command from the grub prompt (md5sum $vtoy_iso_part/rescuezilla-2.1.3-64bit.groovy.iso) and from a command shell on the iso written on the USB key (md5sum <USB_key_path>/rescuezilla-2.1.3-64bit.groovy.iso), I get the same result.
But if I run md5sum on the iso file I've copied on the USB key (the source file), then I get a different md5sum.

Maybe the ISO file was corrupted during you copy it to the USB key.

Here is the correct md5sum value  https://github.com/rescuezilla/rescuezilla/releases
md5sum:
3f9753a949ef215eadf6afcad84dcce5 rescuezilla-2.1.3-64bit.groovy.iso

Hi,

Thank you. You are right. I've copied again the iso file, checked the md5sum and I could boot on rescuezilla.
I don't know what happened but now I'll check the iso each time I copy it on the Ventoy key.

Thanks again for your help.

Regards.
