  @george1421 Thanks for the reply! It was something to do with the custom boot menu. Shortly after I made this post and I had my team meeting. One of my co-workers admitted that he was explaining how to make a custom boot option to our field techs and got distracted and forgotten to add the parameters to the custom boot menu. He was going to delete it afterwards but yet again forgot to do it.

  I feel embarrassed as I saw that menu item multiple times, but it didn’t click that it was missing some important information to make it work properly… I’ve since removed the broken menu item and the boot menu works as intended.

  @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!

  @alterak If you know how to program linux bash scripts this is possible. You will need to edit a script called fog.man.reg that is in FOS Linux (the OS that runs on the target computer to capture/deploy images). I have a tutorial on modifying that program to set a default hostname. But the concepts you need to do what you ware are listed here: https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/14278/creating-custom-hostname-default-for-fog-man-reg

  Requesting a feature addition in the “FOG Settings > FOG Email Settings” section that would allow an admin to test whether or not email is working. This would be similar to other programs that have a “test email” button with a box of who to send the test email to.

  Or perhaps some built in logic to test if postfix or other email prereqs that FOG needs to send email post image deployment.
