    Good morning,
    I’m using FOG 1.5.9
    I noticed every time I pxe boot my machine for FOG, there is a new entry in the boot menu in my bios.
    On a Lenovo machine, I notice that the boot menu displays Windows boot manager 130 times.
    Doesn’t PXE boot on FOG generate a new boot entry on every reboot?

      @DARUN974 Just be aware that FOG doesn’t create any uefi boot manager entries. Those entries can be added programmatically but the OS does that not FOG.

      If by chance you wanted fog to create those entries you would need to create a fog post install script and use the linux bootmanager command to add those entries. The point is they are not automatically created by FOG.

      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!

        Thank you for your response, I’ll check my system.
        Sincerely.
