    systems are able to pick up the fog server and boot, but nothing happens after the menu:

    before.jpg

    memtest fails with ‘exec format error’

    everything else just returns to an unformatted menu and does nothing:

    what is broken here?

    thanks in advance

      @ccatcc Is this a new fog install or has it been in service for a while?

      Will you verify that in this path on the fog server bzImage file exists? /var/www/html/fog/service/ipxe make sure bzImage is in that location.

      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!

        @george1421

        Hi,

        this server has been in service for a while, i.e. it was previously working but i do not remember what the original problem was (other than not working) or how i got to this point in trying to get it working 😞

        this file lives in ipxe:

        # ls /var/www/html/fog/service/ipxe/
        advanced.php  bg.png    bzImage    grub.exe   init.xz  memtest.bin      refind.conf  refind_ia32.efi
        bgdark.png    boot.php  bzImage32  index.php  memdisk  refind_aa64.efi  refind.efi   refind_x64.efi
        
        
        /var/www/html/fog/service/ipxe# file bzImage
        bzImage: Linux kernel x86 boot executable bzImage, version 6.6.44 (runner@fv-az1116-572) #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Wed Aug  7 11:14:21 UTC 2024, RO-rootFS, swap_dev 0X9, Normal VGA
        

        this is also happens when i get the current version:

        wget http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/freeghost/KernelList/bzImage
        
        /var/www/html/fog/service/ipxe# file bzImage
        bzImage: Linux kernel x86 boot executable bzImage, version 4.1.2 (root@debian64) #1 SMP PREEMPT Mon Jul 13 09:53:41 EDT 2015, RO-rootFS, swap_dev 0X6, Normal VGA
        

        so i noticed there was no init_32.xz in /var/www/html/fog/service/ipxe
        for some reason there is also a /var/www/fog/service/ipxe that looks like almost the same contents and it did have an init_32.xz but when i copied this to /var/www/html/fog/service/ipxe it still does the same thing

        (sorry for the delay in replying)

          @ccatcc Sourceforge hasn’t been updated in almost a decade, so I think you’re FOG version is MUCH newer than that considering the bzImage version is 6.6.44 and the one you " updated " to is 4.1.2

          please attempt updating your latest fog version?

Get in contact with me (chat bubble in the top right corner) if you want to join in.

          Web GUI issue? Please check apache error (debian/ubuntu: /var/log/apache2/error.log, centos/fedora/rhel: /var/log/httpd/error_log) and php-fpm log (/var/log/php*-fpm.log)

            @Tom-Elliott said in fog 1.5.10 post pxe boot problem:

            d in almost a decade, so I think you’re FOG version is MUCH newer than that considering the bzImage version is 6.6.44 and the one you " updated " to is 4.1.2

            please attempt updating your latest fog version?

            i have rolled back to the 6.6.44 bzImage files. im not sure where to get current init.xz files however

            ok when you say to update the latest fog version, can you please give me a link or something here?

            am i updating a specific part or am i updating the whole fog installation?

            the fog wiki says to use these links:
