Can't upload Linux Image - Caixa Magica 16

[danuel]

Hi all!

I have a problem, I will try to Upload a Linux distro - Caixa Magica 16 in filesystem EXT3.
My server is a Ubuntu 10.04 Server (ext3) + FOG 0.32

Client boots up via PXE sucessefully, and Run the FOG Task to upload.

The bluescreen (% counter uploading) shows, in 2or3 seconds, the bluescreen close and shows:
Image uploaded
Show the bluescreen counter again…
/dev/sda2 are damaged or invalid filesystem
Image uploaded
Show a bluescreen again (counter %)
The file system in (/dev/sda5) is SWAP (v1), is not supported
Image upload sucessfully

Now I check the size of created/uploaded image and…
d1.mbr - 32,256 B
d1p1.mbr - 931 B

Woooww?? only 32 kilobytes image? I’m not sniffing…

Some help?

Regards

Just a thought, are they primary partitions or extended partitions? I believe FOG only recognizes primary partitions, and I’m almost certain that it cannot handle logical volumes. Something worth double checking.

[danuel]

Yes! It’s that I am sure I create PRIMARY Partitions and fog upload and Deploy with Sucess!

Very thanks!

Now, I have other problem, Deploy Linux system in many different hardware? Any Ideia?
I doesn’t find article :S

Hi!! I see now when fog upload a SWAP partition fog doesn’t create the file “[B]d1p2.img[/B]” .

I doesn’t understand why SWAP doesn’t upload :s GGRRRR

[BryceZ]

The swap partition is just used for paging in to and out of RAM, there is no need to upload the partition itself so FOG skips it. The MBR has the swap partition geometry, so there will be a new swap partition on the system you deploy the image to.

Hi!

Finally! I can Deploy and Upload Caixa Magica and Ubuntu 12LTS.

My resolution:
MAKE INSTALLATION IN VMWARE MACHINE
Make a Primary Partitions and ‘EXT3 with journal’ (/dev/sda1)
SWAP end partition (It is ignored for FOG - by BryzeZ in previous post)
Install grub in /dev/sda1
Install S.O and update
Finally upload

Good deploys for your rooms

What is S.O.?

[danuel]

Operating System… Linux…

[Hunter]

Ahhh silly question then. I guess I need to try to get grub installed (I don’t really know what boot loader Peppermint uses).
