    I recently installed FOG on a Centos 7 box and am able to get into the web GUI, manually add hosts, etc. FOG can WakeOnLAN a host. However, when host PCs boot, I am unable to get the FOG menu to show up. Both the FOG server and the host PC can ping each other. I tried stopping firewalld in Centos, nothing changed. I’ve tried two different models of host PC, same result. The only error is that FOG lists a red ! next to all the hosts for “no such device or address”.

      Thanks for the feedback. I got the chance to spend some time with the fog server today and it looks like the main issue was with selinux. Appreciate the help!

        Remember the prerequsites are to disable the OS’ firewall and to set selinux to permissive.

        What exactly do you have configured for dhcp options 66 {next-server} and option 67 {boot-file}.

        When you pxe boot a target computer what error message do you get if you don’t see the FOG iPXE menu?

        Please post a clear picture of the error (taken with a mobile phone) will give us the context of the error.

        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!

          Can you clarify this in specific terms, what does happen is more helpful than what doesnt happen.

          • Does DHCP assign an IP?
          • Does iPXE pull down the NBP file?
          • Do you get an error?
          • Does the computer do something after not presenting the menu? (beep, reboot, show something else, power off, etc)
          • Do you have SELinux set to permissive mode?

          What machines are you trying (make/model), what GPU are they using, how is the monitor connected (HDMI, DP, DVI, etc)?

          I dont know about for other OS’s, but not CentOS 7. The instructions provide directions for opening the proper ports/services.
