    @JCS-RVK Okay so I don’t see why this kernel wouldn’t work for you with those settings. Only difference I can think of may be the initrd version that is being loaded. I know that @BPSTravis is using the latest released version so it wouldn’t hurt to update yours too.

    I also see that you are running an older version of FOG. You could upgrade to the latest stable release and that will also download the latest initrd.

    You could also download it manually if you don’t want to update FOG:

    On your FOG server, run this command to download the latest initrd
    wget https://github.com/FOGProject/fos/releases/download/20260306/init.xz

    Move it to the correct location like this:
    sudo mv init.xz /var/www/fog/service/ipxe/

    Then you need to change the permissions and ownership of that file:
    sudo chmod 644 /var/www/fog/service/ipxe/init.xz

    Red Had based server: sudo chown fogproject:apache /var/www/fog/service/ipxe/init.xz

    Debian based server: sudo chown fogproject:www-data /var/www/fog/service/ipxe/init.xz

    @Tom-Elliott I really appreciate that you are putting effort into providing more frequent releases, which makes it easier for everyone to deploy new security fixes in time. Keep up the good work!

    I want to take full backups of 5 Windows 10/11 PCs at work using an open source project. I intend to schedule the backups between late night and morning before we open. I want to take backup of my main PC every night and backups of the rest PCs eg once a week.
    I was using fog according to this scenario many years ago without any problem.

    Why is it not suggested to use fog as a backup tool? Everyone suggests Clonezilla. Isn’t fog like an automated Clonzilla without the need of manual backups using a usb stick regarding the backup function?

    Thank you!
