  • PXE booting a DELL latitude 10 tablet problem

    [quote=“Rick F, post: 19811, member: 18439”]Here’s a side tip for those Latitude 10’s… the dock can only support two USB devices at a time. This machine SUCKS.
    I’ve also seen that in my case anyway, the only USB port that sees a USB device (pre-windows) is the front dock USB. So, how do you put the keyboard in the front USB to boot to the BIOS, and choose the flash drive (which also has to be in the front port)??? Well, to free up a USB port, pressing the Volume UP button on the side of the tablet, and I mean pressing it rapidly non-stop, is the same as hitting F12 on your keyboard. That’ll get you to BIOS and you can then see your flash drive which is in the front port. All this, providing that its a working bootable flash drive. As I’ve said, my OS boots up fine through the flash, but not Clonezilla. Hope this helps.[/quote]

    It was rather difficult to get someone that was technical at dell to give me an answer on this but yes pxe booting is not supported on those Latitude 10’s. In fact those Latitude 10’s are discontinued now, and have been replaced with the venue 8 & 11 pro which is suppose to support pxe booting.

    When I install the Virtio Drivers, it doesn’t have anything for Virtio network, it’s just a balloon driver. So it makes sense that it would not work. I’ll see what I can find though.

    Hi Tom,

    I put END TEXT as you suggested and and all seems good now, I even put it back to END TEXT and was able to recreate to problem.

    I really appreciate your help and prompt responses, now I’m able to carry on with my learning on linux/Ubuntu and FOG.

    i guess that’s what my professor meant when he said "pay close attention to details when working, especially with text based config files/programs.

    Thanks;

    Does the task actually perform?

    What version of FOG are you using?

    Can you give us, right after you’ve created an upload/deploy/advanced task, a snippet of your error.log file located in /var/log/apache2/error.log?

    [quote=“Peter Kuykendall, post: 19739, member: 18261”]I’m having the same problem trying to install FOG 0.32 on Ubuntu 12.04.3 LTS server i386 (in a VM for now). Output is in the attached text file (initial stuff was clipped due to the size of my SSH session buffer). Suggestions?[/quote]

    The UDPCast file within the fog installation is outdated.

    Follow the solution in this forum:

    [url]http://fogproject.org/forum/threads/setting-up-and-building-udpcast-failed.4548/[/url]

    It’s basically downloading a newer version, patching it, and then redirecting the fog installation to look to that version instead of the one that fog provides. Once you do that, run the install again, and it should complete without a problem.

    The embarrassment I’m feeling is overwhelming… I read your reply at least 10 times thinking it said the exact same thing when it hit me… Thanks though, it’s working great now! Boot nuking all those machines with ease.

    It sounds like the partitioning scheme on the hdd is causing this particular issue.

    You may try an fdisk on the drive to verify what partitioning scheme is setup on it. It sounds like the first drive was initialized with the MBR tables and the other one is partitioned with GUID Tables.

    I don’t have much more information to help out with this.

    I thought of just changing my subnet mask but I suspect it’s far more involved than that.

    I’ll Google around about ProxyDHCP, that sounds like the least convoluted solution - but I’m happy for the help if you have some tips, especially relevant to my configuration…I do appreciate that. I’ve been running CentOS 6 and am happy with it so far. I hope to not have to reinstall everything and start over, since Trinity Rescue Kit was a BEAR to get the config right (some late nights involved and I can’t remember exactly how I got it to finally work, but it does–except for the whole internet connection issue). But if I have to I have to.

    Also,

    To my knowledge, ftp is used to actually transfer the image from /images/dev to /images as nfs for /images is mounted as read-only

    Make sure your server fog user password is set and that that password is what’s set in Storage Management Password and in FOG Settings->[FONT=Ubuntu][COLOR=#555555]FOG_TFTP_FTP_PASSWORD[/COLOR][/FONT]

    You can look into recovering a mysql database. There may be a way to remount the tables so you can export the data.

    Were you running into display issues on your fog server, or were you getting display errors when using a windows box?
    [/quote]

    I was running an Ubuntu server without a display, so the problems were with the Windows box with IE10 I was connecting to the web interface with. There were loading icons, just that the pics weren’t loaded. Then I had someone mention that the graphs were HTML5 canvas elements.

    Next time, I’ll remember to try multiple browsers 🙂

    Orphen,

    It sounds like the reason you received the Invalid MAC address is the kernel recognizes the loopback, (which doesn’t have a MAC address, therefore it’s invalid) but it doesn’t recognize the physical interface itself. To verify, boot PXE and select Compatibility to find out if the kernel recognizes the HDD and Network. My guess is that it can’t find your network adapter.

    The hdparm issue is not really an issue. That, from what I’ve found, is just letting you know that the kernel has HDD Drivers and has found support, but the drive isn’t loaded in that particular mode. It’s nothing bad, just letting you know that it’s not the appropriate controller to how the device is setup.

    I’d recommend starting by finding out if your kernel has your network adapter which is what my best guess is the issue here.

    I have built a kernel that, for linux, contains all Ethernet and USB Networking adapters.

    You can download it at: [url]https://mastacontrola.com/fogboot/kernel/bzImage[/url]

    Or you can wget it with:
    [code]wget --no-check-certificate http://mastacontrola.com/fogboot/kernel/bzImage[/code]

    Hopefully this will help you out.
