  To rule out the resizing as a problem, try re-uploading the image as a Multi-Partition Single Disk image. Please report back if the Multi-Partition image boots correctly after deployment.

  Yes you can, the installer should skip what is already installed… unless the package names are different. If you are new to Linux, i would not suggest this route as you will most likely have problems. The easiest and most straight forward Distribution to use is Ubuntu.

  What is the “external hard drive” ? Is it a stand alone NAS or plugged into another computer? I’m confused. You need to make sure the “Storage Node” allows annon access to it’s ‘/fogstorage’ NFS share. The error ‘Permission Denied’ tells you straight away that it does not have access to that share. Try booting into debug mode and manually mounting the NFS Share Read this: [url]http://fogproject.org/forum/threads/wiki-troubleshooting-an-image-deploy.20/[/url]

  Feel free to make multiple posts. You need to make sure you have a valid gateway. Use ‘route -n’ to look at your routes. There should be a default route (0.0.0.0) to your gateway IP (What ever that is) i.e. mine [code]fog-2:~# route -n Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 10.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 bond0 0.0.0.0 10.10.10.10 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 bond0[/code] I have static IP settings for my FOG servers, you will probably want this too.

  The PHP upgrade for CentOS is brutal. I have no idea why they have not upgraded to 5.3, or even 5.2. Please see the comments on CentOS 5.6 (at the bottom) on how to manually upgrade PHP to 5.3 [url]http://fogproject.org/wiki/index.php?title=Installation_on_CentOS_5.3[/url] If this is your first FOG server, i [I]really[/I] recommend Ubuntu. APT’s package management is far superior to YUM’s. The package maintainers for APT packages are standards nazis; they adhere to a very strict set of standards. Checking the packages for PHP5 from Ubuntu/Debian shows 5.3.8 is the latest version. [code]fog-2:~# apt-cache policy php5 php5: Installed: 5.2.6.dfsg.1-1+lenny4 Candidate: 5.3.8.0-1 Version table: 5.3.8.0-1 0 500 http://ftp.iinet.net.au testing/main Packages 5.2.6.dfsg.1-1+lenny13 0 500 http://security.debian.org lenny/updates/main Packages *** 5.2.6.dfsg.1-1+lenny4 0 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status [/code]

  Thanks for the reply, I’m using my home environment for testing since i’m pretty new with Ubuntu, but I’ll look into Clonezilla afterwards. As for the router I just bought a new one from D-link…I’ve never had a bad one in the past and didn’t realize the one I got can not use DD-WRT without risk.

  OK one last question that will clear up my confusion----noob–>:confused: If I setup FOG to run with MAC filtration [url]http://www.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php?title=FOGUserGuide#Integrating_FOG_Server_with_Existing_Network_Systems_in_non_intrusive_mode_using_MAC_filtration[/url] The instructions state “[FONT=sans-serif][COLOR=#000000]This allows clients to get IP addresses on the network and connect to the FOG server”[/COLOR][/FONT]. Then to turn off and configure FOG’s DHCP and turn back on. Won’t there be a conflict later on between Windows DHCP server and FOG’s after I turn it on? Is there a step missing on this page to still update the Windows Server with the PXE forwarding? Damn I’m such a newbie

  The scheduled task will be in the ‘scheduledTasks’ table. Look for ‘stIsGroup’ = 1 and ‘stGroupHostID’ = to the Host or Group ID Latest rows will have the largest ‘stID’

  CentOS should work fine and is supported by the installer. Most admins have a favorite a distribution/religion… i understand :) Trying something new is hard, why bother.

  TIMEOUT of 30 or 3 seconds is probably what you want. If you hit the down arrow while the fog menu is displayed, it will not move on to the secondary boot device. A short display time for the PXE menu, insures that the startup process is not delayed too long.

  Make sure the Primary MAC address listed in the FOG console is the wired MAC address on the laptop, should be correct since you did full registration from boot menu but double check anyway. Also when you add the job check the /tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/ directory to make sure FOG placed a file in there named with the wired mac address of the laptop. If that file is not there the laptop will instead show the default fog boot menu. If that file is not there verify the TFTP password for the storage node configuration and the rights on the tftpboot folders. Trying to find a page in the wiki that details the rights/passwords part, I thought one existed already.

  I advise you to mount the nfs share directly on you server by adding a line in your /etc/fstab : 192.168.2.50:/nfs /images nfs defaults 0 0

  Yes… make sure the image type is ‘Single Disc (Resizable)’ and it will be done automatically.
