Fog Menu
-
Good Evening,
I was watching a video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aGtcJF2btOM where a gentlemen after pxe boot he somehow bypassed that and went straight to a FOG Menu. My current setup is 3 VM’s Windows Server (DHCP and DNS), Ubuntu (Fog) and an empty shell VM just trying to test PXE. What can I do to get the Fog Menu to show up. Option 66 is set to go to fog, and I had a test name option 67 just to make sure DHCP options were working. Thank you in advance for any suggestions.

@lostitguy I don’t understand your question. The installer tells you what needs to be defined and the video you’re referencing is a very outdated and unsupported version of fog. If your DHCP options are set correctly, when you boot a device over pxe or uefi you should get the fog menu.

@Tom-Elliott Thank you for your reply. I made a few changes and it looks like it is pulling the file but now I’m getting a chainloading error. Maybe the issue is I’m using a VM to test.
Below is an output of the php file. Thank you so much for your assistance.

@lostitguy it seems your dhcp is set to 192.168.1.220 but your fog ui is presenting 192.168.100.2?
Did an ip address change?
You’ll likely need to update the storage node ip and web address.
