Good luck! Sorry for the wall of text.

If you feel like getting in to it, in order to get the boot package to get sent to the right location, you could take a look at the following lines (for example, inside function createInventoryPackage() in functions.include.php):

[php]
$ftp = ftp_connect(getSetting( $conn, “FOG_TFTP_HOST” ));
$ftp_loginres = ftp_login($ftp, getSetting( $conn, “FOG_TFTP_FTP_USERNAME” ), getSetting( $conn, “FOG_TFTP_FTP_PASSWORD” ));
[/php]

If you feel like getting in to a more “correct” way of doing this, I think the issue with getting the boot files pushed to the correct locations is that $conn is (correctly) looking at the master node since that’s where MySQL lives, so the “FOG_TFTP_HOST” information it receives are the master node settings. I [I]think[/I]. I’m not positive on that. I was thinking of switching it so it gets its information from the config.php file located on the service, but there are a [I]lot[/I] of calls to the MySQL based getSetting function. It might take a lot of changes to rework that.

You’re correct about the scope and topology, The problem I was running into, ultimately, is something within my network is preventing the pxelinux.0 from reaching it’s final destination. Part of the pxelinux.0 would be received but the rest kind of just floated in limbo.

I have another topic where I went through troubleshooting steps and eventually, enabling a proxyDHCP service with dnsmasq resolved the issue.

I appreciate your insight on this as well as your understanding of the network!

Ah, I overlooked the ntfsresize test portions of the script. Try just replacing “$RUN_CHKDSK” on line 391 with “-n -s 10G”.

Ok, thanks for your answer BryceZ. That’s what I’m gonna do now.

I could change the ascii. Thanks for your help.

I’m not using FOG in association with AD. So I can’t help you with this. Maybe you can find some advice in the FOG Wiki or in the forums.

brilliant thats what I was looking for and will have a read tomorrow when I get into work.

Well i didn’t find a hub, I had a linksys wrt54g someplace that had ddwrt on it but I must have loaned it to someone because I can’t for the life of me find it. So I never will know what it was that is being stopped but I believe it’s similar to your situation that you described where a chunk of it is received but the rest is not.

I have installed proxyDHCP and it seems to be happily working on 10.04 LTS.
Now I can boot to my pxelinux.0!!!

I appreciate all your help with this and your time, I’m going to be using it this summer and hopefully set up a few nodes in a few other buildings if all goes according to plan, so far it’s not been that bad of an experience just a typical Linux install lol.

It is not available by default, but FOG is open source and you are free to modify it to meet your needs.

FOG will capture your entire partition(s)/disk. If you have more than one partition or even more than one disk, you can choose an adequate image type. For more information click on the question mark next to the drop down menu of the image type.

I personally use a server that is composed of fog solution, proxy server and dhcp server porsonaliser for computer equipment at the same time

FOG itself can create raw images (see Image type after going to Image Management and choosing an image). Maybe someone can give you a more detailed answer.

If you have an ATI/AMD graphics card in your computer, try setting “nomodeset” under “Host Kernel Arguments” in Host Management.

did a test and deleted page before uploading - on test a fresh onwe came down

I know FOG supports Linux images, however, you have to upload the image by using the Raw image option (not sure about the multipartition option), and if my memory recalls, FOG only supports Ext2/3.
