Kernel Updates
-
Kernel’s have been updated to 3.14.1 as of 10 minutes ago. I’m currently working on compiling a kernel based on the config provided by CentOS directly which, theoretically, would have more drivers enabled by default. Word of caution, while I will be providing this kernel on my site, it’s probably going to be quite large. Maybe it can help out. For right now, it’s only going to be 64 bit on the CentOS config. (I’ll probably call it the CentOSBase).
-
I’ve built the CentOSBase kernel. I will post in a moment. It’s 20MB, but should work on nearly ANY machine. I’ll try to narrow down what’s needed vs. what’s not needed (wireless, sound, vga, etc…) to try to limit the size of the file and maybe have a better supporting kernel.

CentOS Kernel is available, but doesn’t work as you might expect it to.
3.14.2 is available now.

In case you were all wondering,
3.14.3 is built and available on my site.
[url]https://mastacontrola.com/fogboot/kernel/bzImage[/url] (64 bit)
[url]https://mastacontrola.com/fogboot/kernel/bzImage32[/url] (32 bit)If you are on FOG 1.0.0, it should be available under the unpublished kernels listing.
I will likely update the svn site as well for a kind of Repository for these kernels as well.
Thank you,

With going to iPXE does this give the ability now to boot over wireless?

If your hardware supports it then possibly, but that is rare for hardware to support.

Technically, yes you can boot from Wireless. However, the kernels I’m providing have NO wireless support what so ever, so while the system will “boot” it will not be able to do anything.

I am currently running 12.04.5 with fog .32
I had to reinstall because of a MySQL unrecoverable error. I wanted to try 1.2 but is requiring the undionly.kpxe file that I do not know how to create or cannot find on the server. Any help?

What, exactly, does this have to do with Kernel Updates?
All that said, What do you mean it’s requiring the undionly.kpxe file and you don’t know how to find it?
When you install fog 1.2.0, it installs all the files you need for things to work.
The only changes you’d need would be to change the Option 67 from pxelinux.0 to undionly.kpxe so the TFTP file is received properly.

The reason I brought that up is when PXE booting it gives a kernel error. I updated to your kernel and the error changed and said the file could not be found & the kernel error, sort of a combo, that was where it was dealing with the kernel updates.
Thank you for your help

If you’re running FOG 0.32,
The kernel likely “panicked” which would explain the “kernel error” you were seeing. Since 1.0.0 I’ve been building a 64 bit AND a 32 bit kernel. When you downloaded your new kernel, which architecture did you download? My guess is you downloaded the 64 bit kernel and this is where things went south for you.
Also, you state the file “could not be found & the kernel error” This sounds exactly like the information I just told you. The 64bit kernel cannot find a 64 bit init.gz file. It’s because of this you see the “could not be found” AND the reason why you have the kernel error.
If you download the bzImage32 file as your bzImage, things should work more properly for you.
