  @Tom-Elliott Organization Name: High Point University Location (Optional) High Point, NC Approximate Number of systems: 50 How long: 1 month Wiki entry: I am able to properly capture and deploy images to Mac OSX Mojave and on Ubuntu Linux 18.04 LTS both using nvme drives, and supported with hostname changing via the Fog-Client. I migrated us to FOG, suggested by a faculty member, after realizing manually doing this with CloneZilla was not ideal. We at High Point University in North Carolina have migrated from CloneZilla to this open-source software and image management. You have saved us a lot of future time by creating this software. From the Webb School of Engineer, as the solo systems admin here, thank you.

  I just wanted to add to this - If you have an antique server that totally and completely lacks UEFI support (such as my ML350 Gen8) then you can just follow the instructions that @george1421 posted for Windows ISO’s to boot any (most) ISO’s in legacy mode. I just tested it with VMWare 6.7U2 on the HP ML350 Gen8, worked flawlessly.

  When confirming your task you are presented three options for scheduling: Instant, Delayed, and Schedule Cron-style. It sounds like you want the last option.

  posting an update that it worked in the end. (somehow the VM i created as test used another SCSI adaptor and it didn’t play well) The settings that are default for a Win10 x64 still needed secure boot to be turned off. For those who might venture, here’s my settings for my clients. Time for some NAC + Jumpcloud + Chocolatey fun

  @sjensen Yes, seems like those devices can PXE boot: https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/hardware/raspberrypi/bootmodes/net.md You’d need to install your FOG server using a command line switch to enable installation of ARM kernels: ./installfog.sh -A If PXE booting is not working you might still be able to boot those using the USB boot method.

  (warninig this will be a bit biased since you are asking on a FOG forum) Truthfully setting up FOG is pretty easy and is a solid foundation for pxe booting, even multi pxe booting. iPXE is a superior network booting environment as compared to syslinux or grub. With iPXE you can transfer the boot image via http, https, nfs, tftp, and sanboot. In regards to converting your grub menus to iPXE, i have a tutorial on using FOG as a netboot server: https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/10944/using-fog-to-pxe-boot-into-your-favorite-installer-images In regards to uefi vs bios, you need the proper bootloader for bios and uefi respectively. This is the same requriement for whatever boot loader you use. For FOG the default one for bios is undionly.kpxe for uefi is ipxe.efi. Most uefi boot loaders end in a .efi extension. For bios/ufei coexistence we have a wiki page for setting up your dhcp server (Win2012 and newer, or linux) so dynamically provide the proper bootloader based on the target computer: https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/BIOS_and_UEFI_Co-Existence If you have a soho or router dhcp server that doesn’t support dynamic boot files then you can always install dnsmasq on your fog server to supply the dynamic boot loader. Understand that fog and clonezilla are built on opensouce stack so these tutorials above can be reused for other applications (dnsmasq is dnsmasq, tftp is tftp and so on)

  Just to update everyone… Decided to go with @george1421 on this one. It was a full day of “switch PXEClient Settings, Deploy , switch PXEClient again, Collect and repeat” but it worked out well and I have all my images in FOG now. Thank you all for the help and advice!

  A quick look at https://www.php.net/manual/en/migration74.php makes me think there shouldn’t be too many issues, though without a code evaluation I can’t say for certain.

  Here is a sanitized version of my unattend.xml file and how I call the sysprep. I used pretty much the same unattend.xml file with windows 10 deployments. https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/11920/windows-10-1803-sysprep-problem/7 I might recommend that you build your reference image on a virtual machine so you can take snapshots to save the system state as important steps. This saves countless hours of having to start over from the beginning when something goes bad.
