[FONT=Helvetica][SIZE=12px]Can I use the your below mentioned kernel for [B]FOG 0.32[/B] running on [B]Ubuntu 12.04 - 64bit OS [/B]? or is there any alternate kernal for 64bit OS ?[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Consolas]wget -O bzImage --no-check-certificate [url]https://mastacontrola.com/fogboot/kernel/bzImage32[/url][/FONT]
[FONT=Helvetica][SIZE=12px]Please suggest.[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Helvetica][SIZE=12px]As I have same problem with Dell 5440 and Lenovo L440, this will help me.[/SIZE][/FONT]

[/quote]Yes, there is a 64 bit version of the kernel, [url]https://mastacontrola.com/fogboot/kernel/bzImage[/url]
You need to follow the instructions Tom has given you but this will allow you the 64 bit capabilities.

Hi Jaymes and Tom, I have tried running the above command and still get Kernel Panic when trying to uploading an image.

I will give it a try and let you know i appreciate your help on this.
I actually used my Mac to navigate to h[I][FONT=Consolas]ttps://mastacontrola.com/fogboot/kernel/bzImage32[/FONT][/I]
[FONT=Consolas][I]Then I just put in on a flash drive renamed the file to E5440bzImage32 and moved the file to [/I][/FONT]/tftpboot/fog/kernel/[SIZE=2][FONT=Consolas][I]Under the GUI on the [/I][/FONT][/SIZE][FONT=Consolas][I]registered[/I][/FONT][SIZE=2][FONT=Consolas][I] host i set the [/I][/FONT][/SIZE][FONT=Ubuntu][COLOR=#333333]Host Kernel: to [/COLOR][/FONT][FONT=Ubuntu][COLOR=#333333]fog/kernel/E5440bzImage[/COLOR][/FONT][/quote]
You have two different names.
The First, you saved the file as E5440bzImage32 according to this post. Then you placed the file in /tftpboot/fog/kernel/E5440bzImage32?
If so, the Host Kernel line is set incorrectly:
You said you set the Host kernel line to look at:
fog/kernel/E5440bzImageThere isn’t a 32 at the end of it so this could be your problem, does this file even exist? My guess is it’s defaulting to the bzImage file which is currently set, if my understanding is sound, as a 64 bit kernel, which should be panicking.

[quote=“Tom Elliott, post: 24862, member: 7271”]How did you download the file? Are you sure it’s using that kernel.
Make sure you’re using the right kernel properly:
If using FOG 0.32
[code]cd /tftpboot/fog/kernel
mv bzImage bzImage.orig.2014APR01
wget -O bzImage --no-check-certificate https://mastacontrola.com/fogboot/kernel/bzImage32[/code][/quote]Hi Tom,
This issue got fixed !
Now I can Register, Upload and Deploy images in [B]Dell 5440, 5420, 3450[/B] and [B]Lenovo L440[/B] model laptops with fog.
It worked perfectly fine for me with your kernel [B]bzImage32[/B].Kudo’s for ur Kernal. Thank you for your great support

Hi James,
The issue got fixed !

Later I have tried with [B][I][FONT=Consolas][url]https://mastacontrola.com/fogboot/kernel/bzImage32[/url] [/FONT][/I][/B]It worked for meI have tried with Dell 5440, 5420, 3450 and Lenovo L440 model laptops. Its working perfectly in all the laptops.

Now when i try to run an upload i get
Kernel panic - not syncing
Kernel Offset: 0X0 From 0xc1000000The Kernel Offset part is new.

kelly,
As I just added the reading ability of the “kernel” argument on the host level in 0.33b, I’m not sure this actually worked on 0.32.
I’d try doing the methods I recommended above, just create a backup of your bzImage first.

Thanks for all your hard work on this Tom I will give it a go.

Okay so i followed your instructions line for line
[FONT=Consolas]cd /tftpboot/fog/kernel[/FONT]
[FONT=Consolas]mv bzImage bzImage.orig.2014APR01
wget -O bzImage --no-check-certificate [url]https://mastacontrola.com/fogboot/kernel/bzImage32[/url][/FONT]
[FONT=Consolas] [/FONT]
[FONT=Consolas]But i think i might have an idea why this is not working. When i navigate to the Kernel in GUI under properties of the kernel it shows
Type: Dos/Windows ExecutableIm not sure why since im downloading the file right from Terminal [/FONT]
-
Have you tried booting with this?
-
[quote=“Tom Elliott, post: 24920, member: 7271”]Have you tried booting with this?[/quote]
Im not sure i understand your question. Booting up the E5440 laptop?
-
Right!
-
[quote=“Tom Elliott, post: 24923, member: 7271”]Right![/quote]
Yes i still get Kernel Panic

This post is deleted! -
Im also running ubuntu version 11.04

There are a few things.
First, try removing the kernel parameter that was set on the host within the GUI.
Second, make sure the GUI is pointing to the right file:
Other Information->FOG Settings->
FOG_TFTP_PXE_CONFIG_DIR should be set as: /tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg
FOG_TFTP_PXE_KERNEL_DIR should be set as: /tftpboot/fog/kernel/
FOG_TFTP_PXE_KERNEL should be set as: fog/kernel/bzImageMy guess is your FOG_TFTP_PXE_KERNEL lines are pointing at another kernel. I think this because it seems, to me, that Sivasubramaniam.T has tested this kernel and it worked on the E5440. Why it wouldn’t on yours doesn’t seem to make sense unless something is misconfigured.

Tom,
All my settings are as you listed above, is it possible that a chainloader im useing could be causing the panic? I have some dell systems that boot loop when they hit fog so i use the chainloader to append HD 0 during host startup.
Im thinking my next steps will be to test PXE booting with a different E5440 to eliminate any possible issues with the new laptop.
Don’t think it will make a difference but this morning i restarted the server.Thanks again for helping out with this but it might be a few days until i get a chance to work with the E5440 laptops as soon as i can i will let you know if its working or not.
Let me know if you have any more brilliant ideas.
