Thanks Jbob, here we go.

Thanks K0R, valid point who would have thought that an HP ProBook 4530s has got an ide hdd??? SORTED

Awesome - thanks for the quick response!

All good now.

1.3 didnt seem to work, same errors about nbp being too big.

so followed the chainloading instrcutions from,

Error 0x040ee119 ([url]http://ipxe.org/040ee119[/url])
Waiting for link-up on net1…Down ([url]http://ipxe.org/38086101[/url])

so, that didnt work, so removed the symlink to pxelinux, back to undionly.kpxe and it’s suddenly started to work, have registered the host and am now deploying. fingers crossed…

Did a full reset of the network controller through the BIOS - now imaging 🙂
Thanks for the guidance it was a great help

Keep up the good work, super product 🆒

I know that I disappeared a bit with this issue, but as I wanted to make a reproducable version of this problem I created many virtual box instances to make a closer look on the problem. And now, for reason unknown, I cannot reproduce the issue. Hosts are created as I want them to be, etc. Really, really dont get the problem, what happened. If I again can reproduce the issue maybe I will be aware of the reasons.

What informations do you need?

We have Two raid in our server, 1 for Ubuntu and 1 for the images.

We just create a link between /images and our storage raid.

And it work really fine.

Can you attempt putting it into Bridged mode.

Host-only, as I understand it, makes the device as if it’s going through the host machine. This sound’s like it’d be a good thing, except the VM still has to process the information as if it is its own device. So, when you choose Host-Only, the device suddenly becomes processed by two CPU’s.

It’s just a theory and one that I think deserves a good ol’ college try!

Change out of host-only to Bridged NIC and maybe things will work better?

When I was changing the folder name it was giving me an error. The name was not getting change.

Yes, I have the fog client installed on both images I have. I have the correct server IP address and hostname changer is enabled. I’m not sure what the fog.log has in it. Tomorrow I’ll try to deploy an image to another machine and see what the fog.log file says about joining.

I’m confused.

Have you tried uploading an image?

That seems to have fixed the GUI. Thanks!
Only problems I see now is that under the active directory settings when I put in the encrypted password and tell it to save. After saving the settings the encrypted password changes to a much larger string that does not resemble what I entered.

me helped booting from dvd and doing a chkdsk (is not the same as doing it from a booted operation system

An update for those viewing this post. Tom Elliot has advised me that we now see just the bandwidth info for the node selected in the disk space piechart. So bandwidth information is no longer shown for all nodes at once.

Some more questions :
When I use the recovery disk and I look at the size of the partitions, the primary partion 0 is 449 GB when I do a list volume with Diskpart. However, during the deployment of that partition from FOG, which is indicated as /dev/sda4, the Device size is indicated as 482.2 GB.

Furthermore, the recovery fails on both the recovery disks I made on the two separate Laptops. So not sure if we have a disc failure. It resets until about 78% and then just stops saying there was an error. On both repartition and just restore files.

Hey there,

sorry for letting you wait this long. Today I found some time to test a little bit and things look a lot better meanwhile.

I did another fresh install from the current svn and now the iPXE boot works without any flaws! I will now test to Up- and Download some images. I will keep you up to date!

See my previous post.
