Image Store Corrupt Unable to locate MBR.

[JimmyJ0516]

@george1421 Sorry, I did not see that. I am running 1.5.8. I am going to run those commands now

[JimmyJ0516]

@george1421 I posted the results below. Also, this is not the first time using the computer I have captured the image before and never had issues. I also took another computer model and capture the image of that and also had the same issue the d1.mbr file is missing. I have also post the results of the differences.

Possibly those regexp errors are fixed in the latest already… see fix here: https://github.com/FOGProject/fos/commit/80e240dee4c463c6ec62640edbe48d343098de6e (I would think this was after 1.5.8 released… not exactly sure though)

[JimmyJ0516]

@Sebastian-Roth Do you think and again I’m just throwing it out there. What if I downgrade to 1.5.7. All of the images I created were on 1.5.7. Now that I am capturing images for the first time on 1.5.8 I am having these issues. If I do downgrade do I just re-run the installer for 1.5.7? As well as you mentioned all of the images before the news created the owner is fogproject and the new ones have root as the owner.

[george1421]

@JimmyJ0516 Instead of going backwards, lets take you to 1.5.9RC2. That RC version will probably become the next 1.5.9 GA release. There hasn’t been any bug reports against that RC release so far.

If you used the git method to install FOG change to that directory (typ /root/fogproject) and issue the following commands.

git checkout dev-branch
git pull
cd bin
./installfog.sh

Now when 1.5.9 comes out you will want to switch back to the master branch to get 1.5.9.

git checkout master
git pull
... and so on

[JimmyJ0516]

@george1421 I have been using the TAR/GZ archive way of downloading the updates and all of the updates are stored in /opt is that a problem?

[george1421]

@JimmyJ0516 With the tarball releases you can only install GA releases of FOG. The git method allows for a bit more flexibility.

[JimmyJ0516]

@george1421 Understood so I am moving into my /opt directory where all of the versions of Fog are stored and then I proceed to run the command you gave me correct?

[george1421]

@JimmyJ0516 To use the git method you can run this command from the /opt directory (my preference) or from /root

cd to that directory and then issue the following commands.

git clone https://github.com/FOGProject/fogproject.git
cd fogproject

Then issue the commands from the previous post to switch to the dev branch and reinstall FOG.

Note if git is not installed then you will need to use your linux distro’s tools to install git.

[JimmyJ0516]

@george1421 I have successfully updated and I am now on 1.5.9-RC2.9. I will try and capture a image now and see where this takes me.

[JimmyJ0516]

@george1421 Actually this did fix the issue. It has now captured the d1.mbr file. I am now going to deploy the image to make sure it works 100%. Thank you

[JimmyJ0516]

@george1421 Alrighty Thank you so much for helping. Everything is now working fine with no issues at all. Last question lol how do I make this issue solved or does someone take care of that lol?

[george1421]

@JimmyJ0516 I took care of it for you. Basically under topic tools change the state as ask as question, then go back into topic tools and mark as solved.

[JimmyJ0516]

@george1421 Thanks again
