    @Jeremy said in FOG Project Image Capture on Raspberry Pi 4 (ARM64) via U-Boot:

    @Tom-Elliott

    GREAT NEWS! The capture completed successfully!

    Here is a summary of the steps and final configuration that made it work seamlessly on the Raspberry Pi 4:

    Display Fix (Kernel side):
    Downloading build EXP_20260827-114033 with the integrated VC4 driver completely resolved the display freeze on the 4 raspberries logo. HDMI output initialized perfectly.

    Ramdisk Format Fix (U-Boot side):
    Passing raw arm_init.cpio.gz via booti was triggering a “Wrong Ramdisk Image Format” error in U-Boot. Wrapping it into uInitrd with the following command solved the issue:
    mkimage -A arm64 -O linux -T ramdisk -C none -d arm_init.cpio.gz uInitrd

    Final Working boot.cmd:

    setenv kernel_addr_r 0x00080000
    setenv fdt_addr_r 0x08000000
    setenv ramdisk_addr_r 0x09000000

    setenv bootargs console=tty1 loglevel=7 consoleblank=0 web=http://192.168.203.113/fog/ mac=dc:a6:32:c8:b4:33 osid=50 type=up img=ImagePi4 imgType=mps imgPartitionType=all storage=192.168.203.113:/images/dev/ storageip=192.168.203.113 fdrive=/dev/sda

    tftp ${kernel_addr_r} 7efcf632/arm_Image
    tftp ${ramdisk_addr_r} 7efcf632/uInitrd
    tftp ${fdt_addr_r} 7efcf632/bcm2711-rpi-4-b.dtb

    booti ${kernel_addr_r} ${ramdisk_addr_r} ${fdt_addr_r}

    Imaging Status:
    Once booted into FOS, Partclone captured /dev/sda without any error and uploaded the full image to the FOG server!

    Thank you so much for adding the VC4 driver and supporting ARM64 builds!

    @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!

    @Tom-Elliott
    Something isn’t working well for me.
    I can’t get iPXE menu when secureboot is enable and secureboot/snponly-shimx64.efi is set.

    On a Lenovo ThinkPad E16 Gen 1, I only have this :

    I acces on iPXE menu a Lenovo ThinkBook 15-IIL but yet I think MOK.DER isn’t registering well even with an usb key connected formatted in fat32 with the 3 files.

    @Valer I think we need to understand what this plugin is doing.

    CSS isn’t something we’ve allowed to be injectable though it could be.

    You can still use your own CSS but that’s more at the FOG Configuration -> FOG Setting -> FOG_THEME, but you would need to put it on your server in a location you type the path too here.

    https://docs.fogproject.org/en/latest/development/plugin-development

    This is a good toolkit for understanding how to build your own plugin.
