      @chevengur I have not had to do this before, but I can tell you in concept how to go about it.

      You will need to create a post install script, that script gets executed just after the image is pushed to the computer and before its rebooted. This script is a bash shell script (remember the FOS engine is linux based).

      Since it is linux based you will need to use linux command line tools to reset the boot image. The tool named is efibootmgr. This command is built into FOS linux engine.

      So on its simplest form, you will create a FOG post install script and that script will call the efibootmgr to set the boot image. Understand that MS Windows will change this order without notice and at random times during its life.

      Its not hard to do, but it will take a little effort on you to work out what is needed.

      I can’t give you a step by step on how to do this but I can give you a general direction to look in if you want to go down this path.

      @FlorianLenz I did all these steps and it worked with normal USB adapters, but with USB-C-Ethernet adapters does not work, could you help me out?
      (It could be important to know this type-c adapter have 1 HDMI port and 3 normal usb ports)

      @JasonNaughton Looking at the code the error would indicate that the target computer can’t reach the fog server.

      https://github.com/FOGProject/fos/blob/8893d32bfb702dcf7b8f5427ccd6748fac15df17/Buildroot/board/FOG/FOS/rootfs_overlay/etc/init.d/S40network#L64

      What I want you to do is to pxe boot the computer into debug mode. Schedule a deployment to this computer but before you hit the schedule task button tick the debug checkbox. Now pxe boot the target computer, you will still get the errors but you will be dropped to the fos linux command prompt.

      run this command ip a s that should show if your network interface has an IP address. If not then issue this command.
      /sbin/udhcpc -i enp128s31f6 --now where enp128s31f6 is the name I gleaned from your screen shot that appears to have picked up an IP address. See if it gets an IP address now. See if you can ping the fog server’s IP address.

      The ‘checker’ script makes this call to verify your fog server is reachable.
      curl -Ikfso /dev/null "${web}"/index.php --connect-timeout 5 replace the entire ${web} with the IP address of your fog server. See if that returns a value.

      Finally search the system messages to see if there is something related to firmware.
      grep -i -e firm /var/log/syslog I think syslog is the right file, if it returns nothing try /var/log/messages One error could be the network adapter needs a specific firmware for the network adapter to communicate. That firmware may need to be added to the linux kernel.
