        @Trev-lchs you may need to be root or sudo it to view the file sudo cat /opt/fog/.fogsettings

                  @Trev-lchs Sorry I had to step away for a bit, it looks like you have it. The password found in the .fogsettings file should always be considered the master password since the fog installer/upgrade script will always reference this password when making system adjustments. If for some reason the web ui passwords get out of sync with this password you will get random failures as you saw.

                    @george1421 Thanks George, just have to work out why the laptop wont boot info fog using uefi but i have raised another question on that, that was why i was trying to update the Kernel in the first place.

                      @Trev-lchs OK just for clarity the kernel is the FOS Linux kernel that does the imaging. That is independent of the pxe boot loader (that creates the FOG iPXE menu). Difficulty pxe booting then should be focused on undionly.kpxe for bios and ipxe.efi for uefi based systems.

                        @george1421 Yep thanks for your help George, we have it pixie booting now, unfortunately, on checking it this morning the Tech had not switched secure boot off in the laptop bios. due to the other issue i had been having i thought it was FOG, FOG is blameless in this instance.
