  I guess what i’m trying to establish in this thread: I cannot replicate the error you’re seeing. And from what I can tell this is an error that’s been custom made. The thread starts: FOG 1.6 Identified Problems. Nothing, so far, besides the advanced menu issue which was addressed, and added the Client link within the menu system, has been a problem specific to FOG 1.6 I don’t know how to help any further with this as the 2 things requested that were not due to custom modifications to the iPXE menu have been addressed. Were these the only 2 things identified and solved? If so, can you branch out your specific problems into a new thread. I’m getting rather lost on where a problem is and how we’re supposed to help further. Do things work as intended out of box (before copying your 1.4.4 database over it?)

  @TaTa There should be a log file somewhere in /var/log/mysql/error.log or similar. Please take a look to see why it doesn’t seem to properly start.

  @Keating178 The Invalid Storage Group error you were seeing should be fixed if you can upgrade to the latest within the dev-branch from GIT. Hopefully this will fix the issue you were seeing too.

  @george1421 said in issue with netcard of dock gen2 of lenovo l390: @JJ-Fullmer The r8152.c from the torvalds github site failed to compile on 4.19.65, I’m suspecting its for a later release of linux. The version from the torvalds site was 1.10.10. The version in 4.19.65 was 1.9.9 of the realtek driver. I was able to compile the realtek driver from the wget github site. This version is 2.12. Here is a link to that kernel with the 2.12 driver built in. I also enabled the usb-c code in the kernel that appears to have not been set. I don’t know if its relevant, but it should be on for other applications. https://drive.google.com/open?id=1wZwwOwbEr0nR3mnPLKg7AsulwJaGhO0A Download this as bzImageRT (watch your case) and copy it to the ipxe directory with the other kernel images. Manually register the host and then in the host definition add in bzImageRT as the kernel for that host. Then pxe boot into FOS Linux debug mode to see if the network adapter inits correctly with this updated driver. @John-L-Clark I realize that this is a few months old, but this problem sounds similar. Give this solution a try, download the kernel @george1421 made and set it on that host. It worked for me with the lenovo usb-c ethernet adapter, I imagine you’re using that or a similar adapter, this kernel fixed the issues we were having with the L390 and X390

  Thanks everyone for the support. @Daniel-Miller and @Sebastian-Roth I opted for the approach you suggested of making TFTPD ‘correct’ the filenames. The affected PC now goes to the FOG menu. I missed Sebastian’s map file and ended up writing my own which is: # Workaround for PXE clients that misinterpret the DHCP options # because they expect a null-terminated string # match the extensions followed by any characters and replace it with # just the extensions r \.pxe.* \.pxe r \.ipxe.* \.ipxe r \.kpxe.* \.kpxe r \.kkpxe.* \.kkpxe @george1421 I wouldn’t even have guessed that proxy DHCP was a thing. I’ve decided not to go for it this time but I’ll keep it in mind for future.

  @Kevin-Talbot Make sure you read the notice on the latest stable release for Ubuntu before you go ahead: Please make sure you say NO if asked about removing and re-installing PHP and Apache when upgrading to 1.5.7 on Ubuntu!!! https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/13488/fog-1-5-7-officially-released Beside that I’d suggest you wait before upgrading. 1.5.7 turned out to not be as rock solid and we are working on a more stable release 1.5.8 to come out in the next months.

  @processor said in DHCP Failed : no configuration methods succeeded.: And at last, I’ll made 2k12 filters. (Which is barely already done in a kind of way) If you get to this point I’m willing to help with what I know regarding to host identification.

  @Baessens In this special case I’d suggest you use basic Linux commands to export/import image definitions and sync the image files to your other node. Optional: Create a sync user account on your main master node - otherwise you’d use the root account to do that but don’t use the fogproject account! Setup SSH keys to be able to login using the sync (or root) account from node B to node A Setup a cron job on your node B to do the DB and file sync Make sure rsync is installed on both nodes. Here is just a quick outline of how you might do this (untested!): #!/bin/bash ssh syncuser@nodeA mysqldump -u root -pPassw0rd fog images >/tmp/images.sql mysql -u root -pPassw0rd </tmp/images.sql rsync -ave ssh syncuser@nodeA:/images /images >>/var/log/fog/myimagesync.log 2>&1 This will wipe the images table on your node B and import all the definitions you have on node A.

  @rankinc This partition number 5 is a recovery partition which FOG doesn’t move on the disk. So it’s unable to shrink your main Windows partition.

  @Quazz said in Extremely Slow Deploy to NVME drives: @DeRo93 If available, install firmware updates, BIOS updates and such. Already done. Nothing helped :/. I hope there will be a Solution in future. We only work with HP. And i think the new one will all get NVME SSD´s… Anyway thank your for your Help.

  @crustyjeff said in HP PROBOOK 450: No, so how can i remove the recovery partition from the clone? Well just delete it from your master host, maybe even expand the third partition using the Windows disk management view and re-capture the image. Probably a good idea that you leave the image Accessing2019 on your FOG server and create a new image definition for the capture you take after removing the forth partition. This way you can always go back to the original state in case you figure that you’d need it for some reason. Deleting partitions is kind of a dangerous task. Do it on your own risk and if unsure take another backup copy of the whole system before you go ahead!

  Updated /var/www/html/fog/lib/fog/task.class.php getStorageGroup method to do: return new StorageGroup($this->get('storagenode')->get('storagegroupID')); This way it’s not relying on a potential return from the group that may not be assigned to the tasking. It relies on the storage node that was associated to the tasking. I will update the main codebase with this issue and fix. Thank you,

  @ziomario Thanks to Tom’s work the installer now works with Ubuntu 19.10 as well. Just finished a test install with dev-branch. Though you need to choose one of the development versions. Either go with working-1.6 (upcoming version 1.6 with new GUI) or dev-branch (latest development version of FOG 1.5.x). sudo -i cd /home/ziomario/Scaricati/Linux/ git clone https://github.com/FOGProject/fogproject cd fogproject git checkout working-1.6 cd bin ./installfog.sh Choose the version at the above command where it says “git checkout …”
