You may want to review the usefull information in this post: https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/10403/boot-iso-from-ipxe-menu/5

The post talks about Xubuntu, but it should also apply to Ubuntu. The idea here is to not deliver the whole ISO over pxe booting, but pxe boot the ubuntu kernel and then let the kernel access its files via NFS from the /images share on the fog server.
Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG!

@zingaro Please let us know if you could follow the description in the other post and got it setup on your system as well or if you need any more help with this.
Web GUI issue? Please check apache error (debian/ubuntu: /var/log/apache2/error.log, centos/fedora/rhel: /var/log/httpd/error_log) and php-fpm log (/var/log/php*-fpm.log)
