SVN is subversion. it’s a method developers use for code revision tracking.

To image is to download… Create image is to upload… Never really thought about it past that.

Fog makes perfect sense to me, however I don’t believe FOG is for beginners? Not at all discouraging anyone by any means, but to seasoned vets that do this day in and day out… FOG is a great design as is, and has little confusion from the UI in my opinion.

We all started green, and yes many moons ago I too placed a blank drive over an image… OOPS ! Once you do this to yourself it will most certainly never happen again…lol Been there, done that… Learned the definitions quickly after that. Old Norton’s Ghost days, and I am far from missing them 🙂

Many thanks to all that contribute !!

update to one of the latest SVN versions and choose “quick image.” it will display a list of images for you to choose from (defaulted to the one assigned to the computer, if the computer is registered and assigned an image) and allow you to image the computer.

There are definitely challenges on the horizon for FOG. 😐

I run mine on my main network all the DHCP server has to do is add two options, which are easy to configure if you have a ‘proper’ router and not one of the little horrors some of the ISP’s send out.

Every environment is different and you can always do what suits you best.

It could just be your FTP settings/credentials… or even firewall or SELinux…

How are you booting to “debug”?

There are taskings that are specific for debug modes. For example, there’s a Debug Only tasking, and there’s an Upload Debug and a Download Debug task.

If you need the profile data then you you will need an unattended file because the default is to not copy the data.

Thanks for all the help.

Thi splugin is only available in the beta version. Not in 1.2[/quote]

That is clearified in the wiki mentioned in the 1st post.

It’s probably OK to image while the backup is running, but you might see decreased performance in both.

IMO, leave it alone.

And, there are probably 100 different backup methods/programs/scripts you could use to backup FOG server.

See [url]http://fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/NAS_Storage_Node[/url] for more information.

You could use a startup script in windows to check the available space and extend the partition by an amount if you wanted to.

Interesting. Seems like it does not match the md5sum anymore. Not sure which kernel image this is but I downloaded 3.19.1.x and 3.19.0.x and non of the md5sums match! Please rnu this commands too:
[CODE]$ file -k bzImage
…
$ ls -al bzImage
…[/CODE]

Yes fog can work with the files from cloned ills though some renaming maybe needed and compressing as gzip as well. You could also re upload the image using fog.

Thanks man but its not a PXE boot problem or DHCP server issue seeing to as I am not using FOG’s for DHCP & I’m not running Ubuntu (EWW & WTF lol)

😄

look at BootMenu.class.php - in and around line 1010 which is where it “builds” the menu… have a play around, see what works and luckily it’s all hookable, so you can amend it and won’t be reverted on upgrade (due to the fact hooks get copied during install!)

here’s my hook doing something similar if it helps you in the right direction 🙂

[CODE]<?php
class BrandBootMenu extends Hook
{
var $name = ‘BrandBootMenu’;
var $description = ‘customize boot menu items.’;
var $author = ‘Lee Rowlett’;
var $active = true;
public function tweakmenu($arguments)
{
if ($arguments[‘ipxe’][‘head’])
{
$arguments[‘ipxe’][‘head’][7] = ‘colour --rgb 0x036802 2’;
$arguments[‘ipxe’][‘head’][14] = preg_replace(‘#right 80#’,‘right 80 --top 80’,$arguments[‘ipxe’][‘head’][14]);
}
}
}
$BrandBootMenu = new BrandBootMenu();
// Hook Event
$HookManager->register(‘IPXE_EDIT’, array($BrandBootMenu, ‘tweakmenu’));[/CODE]

I am new to this community. I am interested to discuss about the computer hardware peripherals.

[quote=“MrsPotter, post: 43841, member: 27740”]Yes - thanks. Your suggestions make sense. And, yes one can build remarkably complex images with all the tools MS provides. And, we do that also. And, yes GPO is great (could have been more user friendly), and we use it extensively. However, it is for a great many reasons not entirely practical with this particular setup we have.

Having Partimage check if the image is restorable would be a nice to have though :). I was assuming one could tweak this through some sort of advanced setting. Even, if you do a SysPrep you would want to be sure it was imaged correctly before you even move on to the testing phase. Maybe I should list this under feature requests? It would also be cool if one could have more than one image associated with a certain PC.

Other than that - all my thumbs are up - FOG seems like a very neat piece of software :)[/quote]

I suppose the ultimate test would be to just do a image deployment of said image. That would be better than any software check.

I know this is an old thread but it doesn’t look like it was answered. I found that I am having the same problem as TuxMeister getting a boot failure. Are there supposed to be other TFTP boot files inside the ISO folder and where do I find these files?
