      @tom These next steps are shotgunning in several directions.

      1. Do you have any other models we can try. Like an older latitude or even a desktop. I’m interested to see if we can get FOS to boot at all.

      2. Lets assume that FOS is corrupted. From the fog server linux console, navigate to /var/www/html/fog/service/ipxe and then lets run the md5sum command and compare your images to mine.
        1 md5sum bzImage dfba0a3d8b0e8652857c69c45393465a
        2 md5sum bzImage32 87d61b318f111434f880e0d4b500e539
        3 md5sum init.xz edbd5936f81144d1afb888f4b8712de5

      3. If we put the pxe booting computer on the same subnet as the FOG server, we can use the fog server to listen in on the pxe booting process of the target computer. (I’m not sure this one is going to tell us much, but again your pxe booting process is not typical either). Follow the instructions here: https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/9673/when-dhcp-pxe-booting-process-goes-bad-and-you-have-no-clue upload the pcap to a google drive or dropbox and I’ll take a look at it. Either post the link here or send me an IM and I will review it off-line. Use the provided instructions except use this tcpdump string. tcpdump -w output.pcap port 67 or port 68 or port 69 or port 4011 or port 80 because I want to see what is going on with the init.xz download, which uses http.

      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!

        @george1421 Wait, I remember another situation just like this, where the OP was sending pxelinux.0 or any of the undionly.0 files as dhcp option 67 {boot-file} and it would run just fine but blow up while it was downloading the init.xz. This sure seems to fit that situation.

          seems to be correct.

            @tom Ok then we can rule out something happened to the FOS image during or after the upgrade since the keys match.

              @Tom Would you please also comment on George’s question about other laptops/PCs PXE behavior. Is it only one single device or all of the 7240s? Please try other devices to see if you have a general issue or if it’s model related in your case.

              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)

              Please support FOG if you like it: https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/Support_FOG

                        @george1421 So far we found in the pcap that the client is trying to download bzImage412 and the fog server is replying with file not found.

                        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!

                          @tom Well that wasn’t what I expected (it looks good).

                          Lets try one more URL call: http://<fog_server_ip>/fog/service/ipxe/boot.php?mac=<mac_address_of_target_computer>

                            @george1421 Just for clarity this is what we see in the pcap

                            0_1504734327912_bzImage412.png

                            Note that packet 56 asking for bzImage412 and then in packet 58 the FOG server says 302 not found.

                                @tom OK this isn’t getting us to the answer. Not your fault, I think “fog” is helping us by hiding the answer.

                                Can you go to the FOG webgui and look at the FOG Configuration->FOG Settings. Then in FOG Settings look at these values:
                                FOG_TFTP_PXE_KERNEL (suspect is wrong) should be bzImage
                                FOG_TFTP_PXE_KERNEL_32 (probably right)

                                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!

                                    @tom Well as they say… There you go. You found the smoking gun.

                                    Did someone try to create a custom kernel for some reason?

                                      Not that I am aware of. I was on vacation.
                                      So, what are the changes I need to make?

                                      Thanks,
                                      Tom

                                        @tom Well I would start out by changing that value of bzImage412 in FOG_TFTP_PXE_KERNEL back to the default of bzImage. Then reboot your target computer and see if you can register it.

                                          I will tested in the morning and provide feedback.

                                          Thanks for all the help.

                                            Changed the entry to bzimage4123 and it seems to be working fine.
