@Kureebow I’ve had this happen to me before. These are the two cases that I’ve seen:

1 - I captured an image in UEFI and the computer that I was deploying it to was in Legacy mode. I also had the inverse of this, where I captured in Legacy and was trying to deploy to UEFI.
2 (the most common for me) - Some sort of RAID or volume management device is enabled in the UEFI. I only use HP so I don’t know what it would be called on Dell, but on HP there is an option that I have to disable “Configure Storage Controller for VMD”.

I do a monthly update to my image (single disk resizable) with the latest updated added to the iso I use to install. So I’m using the November iso with the December updates embedded for win 11 24H2 x64 and I had no issues with resizing.

So it may be a config issue on your end or it could be a more specific use case due to a windows upstream change.
Can you give a little more information on the hardware you’re capturing from and what your settings are on the image definition in fog?
I can try to recreate to some extent.

My Fog version : 1.5.10.1734 over Ubuntu 22.
It just looks like double-quotes escaping problem…

@romprager The simple answer is depends on the iso image and what OS will boot from the ISO image.

I do have several how tos in the forum that shows how to net boot several different installers.

@Tom-Elliott Yep, I caught that workaround in the earlier post. I moved the image folder from /images/dev to /images, but still resulted in the same error.

One thing I noticed this morning, is that the image capture process is hanging at 99% on the task page, as in for at least 45 minutes. Not sure if that is a symptom or the cause.

The previous post was suspect of a very recent init version – but i’m on the most recent dev-branch.

Thank you!

Thank you george1421 that 's was the solution.
I was troubleshooting remotely, and the technician on site insisted that images had already been downloaded onto it.

I understand your point of view, but I also have to remain anonymous to my colleagues.

Solved !

@george1421 noted. When I was initially testing, I did not know this and it took some digging in the forums to find this tidbit of knowledge. Given that having separate storage groups stops replication between the nodes in my mind it makes most sense to have a more distributed setup of normal servers at each site to handle all of my requirements. Thanks for the input!

I am confident I have ruled out NFS. I can now connect to the NFS from localhost and Ubuntu to /images & /images/dev without issue and all the permissions that come with it. The only thing failing now is FOG, any guidance would be great!

@rodluz
Problem solved - the disk with the image was damaged

@lmoysidis I’m not using fortigate but check out the following article: https://docs.fogproject.org/en/latest/installation/network-setup/proxy-dhcp/?h=
I needed to dynamically assign a boot file based on vendor class and dnsmasq did the trick!

@Tom-Elliott Thank you so much Tom, as always I appreciate your support and guidance.

I reverted back to a snapshot I had on the same version and it’s working as expected. Unsure how things got corrupted but I would say it’s safe to assume this is working unless others report the same issue.

@chevengur there is not enough information to help you in that picture. If we could see more of the error message that partclone threw (i.e. just above the top of your picture) we would know what happened. At the point in the script all we know is that partclone wasn’t happy.
