  [quote=“Icak_newton, post: 620, member: 249”]You can burn multiple ipxe cd’s and let the pc’s boot from them :)[/quote] Yeah… I could. But i’m not ;) As it turns out, I am able to use the FOG service to reboot when there is a pending task. It all works pretty well now.

  [QUOTE]Because the data has been scattered around the disk and FOG needs to read all of the empty data between the real data. Defrag before uploading and this will be fixed (as long as all data can be moved to the front of the disk)[/QUOTE] We have defragmented the PC several times and the problem is still there. [QUOTE]A good tradesman never blames his tools.[/QUOTE] I don’t want to blame the tool, but after working and trying for hours and days it could be a problem with the tool. [QUOTE]Your problem looks like a failing hard drive. [/QUOTE] I don’t think so, because it was a factory new PC and we tested it on more than that one machine. The error postet in [url]http://fogproject.org/forum/threads/fog-converts-hdd-in-raw-format.132/[/url] appears after I deleted the 100mb-Windows-Recovery/Boot-Partition. And I tried that only because the image size was wrong.

  Thank you guys for the trailhead. Looks like I have some studying to do! This is probably one of those things that seems intimidating from the onset but once in the thick of it or when done, it isn’t too bad.

  It’s probably not advisable to be using the domain administrator account, better to delegate local admin rights to another AD account and then use that to install software.

  It uploads it via FTP, the file is not locally copied. This is done for flexibility; The TFTP server does not need to be on the FOG server.

  Please follow this guide on trouble shooting an image upload. [url]http://fogproject.org/forum/threads/wiki-troubleshooting-an-image-upload.21/[/url] The screenshot looks like it’s failing on the ‘ntfsresize’ command. This is where it will probably error or break. Generally if the NTFS resize fails, there is some sort of file system issue that has to be fixed with chkdsk. Any errors, or anything odd should be reported here.

  I’m not sure if a trailing slash is meant to be there or not. I will look into the standards and hopefully have a change for 0.33. By the sounds of it, the trailing slash should not be there.
