It appears this was Hanz’s fault. He had snapshots and what not and it broke the upload process.

@fakeblair Any news on this??

Have you tried undionly.kkpxe??

It is some while since I last used it, but from what I remember, if there was no task for the PC you should get the FOG menu, which would then time out after the period set in the FOG GUI, if you didn’t select an option.
If you don’t get the FOG menu then it may be that the ipxe script needs changing to pass extra parameters to boot.php.

OP: From my post below the boot.php script is looking for the mac parameter to be passed to it. Without that I might understand why you are getting a different reaction.

@Tom-Elliott awesome, thanks, it seems to be working ok now…

Are you still not able to register clients?

@pmonstad there was a bug for a while where the kernel directory was being passed as you saw but it is configurable through fog configuration -> fog settings -> tftp server kernel for or very close to it.

There were some changes made by Tom in the last days. I guess he fixed things for you as well. Marking this solved. Please report back if you see the issue coming up again or if you have other problems.

Fix pushed. Basically if there’s any “bad” characters, I replace them (for the html attributes) with _, this way the attribute is setup properly and can be edited.

no problem, i’ll update trunk later on this week and try again.

@x9rok Is there any way I could get you to help me with the working and installation process involved to get clam av to work…I’ve got it installed on server at this point.

The global settings appear to be working now that the sloppy domain pre-fix has been removed and the cert issue was cleared up. It still appears to be a bug that the extra erroneous slashes are added, but if the expected input is wrong then that is fair enough really!

Thanks for the help, much appreciated.

@Tom-Elliott Didn’t have “join domain after image task” checked under host, and apparently didn’t allow enough reboots ( 2 by fogservice) for it to re-domain itself with new name. **Also had to make sure the gpo package (which I use to push client) was NOT set to “uninstall package when no longer managed”.

Remoted in and found that the files in /opt/fog/{service,etc} were having problems for some reason. Deleted them and installed again and all appears to have worked properly.

Thanks for the picture. Do you see anything after that or is it sitting there forever? From your first post I guess that you see more FOG messages after that. It all finishes without ever showing the blue partclone window? I am just guessing here. Feel free to upload a video and post a link here.

The errors on the picture should not be a show stopper AFAIK!

@need2 Imaging across the internet would be one good reason… Imagine that!

[quote=“Uncle Frank, post: 42587, member: 28116”]There are a couple of examples here in the forums. e.g.: [url]http://fogproject.org/forum/threads/boot-menu-iso-file-size.12442/[/url][/quote]

Thanks. That worked. Got the AVG ISO booting now.
If anyone is interested In Fog 1.2.0, in the fog configuration in the advanced config options text box I have this :

menu
item --gap – ---------------- iPXE boot menu ----------------
item AVG AVG Antivirus scan
item Sophos Sophos Antivirus scan
item shell ipxe shell
item return return to previous menu
choose --default AVG --timeout 5000 target && goto ${target}

:AVG
initrd http://${fog-ip}/${fog-webroot}/iso/avg_arl_cdi_all_120_141126a8645.iso
chain memdisk iso raw ||
goto MENU

:Sophos
initrd http://${fog-ip}/${fog-webroot}/iso/sophosbootable.iso
chain memdisk iso raw ||
goto MENU

:shell
shell ||
goto MENU

:return
chain http://${fog-ip}/${fog-webroot}/service/ipxe/boot.php?mac=${net0/mac} ||
prompt
goto MENU

autoboot[/CODE]

Next task is to customise that iso so its got up to date definitions, sets the network and proxy appropriately and has 2 options “scan” and “custom” where scan just gets on with it (if nothing is selected) without asking loads of questions and custom gives access to the original ARL menu…

Very helpful @ChrisJ, thank you!

@Tom-Elliott Many thanks for going through the effort of remoting into my system and getting FOG_trunk installed. Really - my best gratitude.

I have now thoroughly tested the FOG_trunk version. And, most unfortunately, I can confirm that I still have the original issue of the Win7 image just booting to classpnp.sys. I basically went through all the steps listed below again.

Nonetheless, I’ll keep my eye on this project and give it a few tries in the future as more versions become available.

Thanks, now it works!
