Newer To FOG... Need a little assistance.

[JBurston]

Hello Everyone,

I am trying to capture a sysprep-ed image and when I try to capture it, the sysprep computer just sits at the iPXE section when it verifies the Kernel. I have captured a few images that didn’t have the kernel and they captured perfectly. Can someone shed a little light on something I missed?

List of settings—
You are currently running version: 1.5.0-RC-10
Kernel Path – fog/kernel/Kernel-4.13.4.TomElliott.64Bit (this is what I named the kernel as well)
Lenovo M710Q, Windows 7 computer 64 bit

If more info is needed, please let me know and I will do my best to provide it.

@jburston Can you try RC11 please? Instructions are here: https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php?title=Getting_FOG You would use the dev-branch. Maybe it works after you update? If not, we will try to help you further.

A little more info. We have had this issue even after we updated to the newest version at the time (RC10) it seems to be an issue with the kernel itself, well, that is what it seems like to me. I think I am using the correct kernel version (it is the latest one). Could it could be an issue with the name of the kernel?

[Wayne Workman]

@jburston Maybe - but I will say that every time you run the installer - it gets the latest kernel version and should install it correctly.
For kernel updating, follow this please: https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php?title=Kernel_Update

@Wayne-Workman I am not too sure about those two being related. We’ll see.

@JBurston Does it fail the very same stage for all your computers? Different models? Has it ever worked before? How long do you wait? Can you still ping the computer while it is sitting there? Please post a picture of the screen here in the forums.

@sebastian-roth I actually figured out that if I notate what Kernel to use, that is where the issue is. I left it blank so it uses the default kernel and now it deploys perfectly EXCEPT FOG doesn’t add the computer to our AD Domain.

@jburston see the wiki article called “password central”. If you need further help, please open a new thread for the new issue and post the last 200 or so lines from your fog.log file.
