    My kernel names have changed and allNet is a base start of my configs now.

      Hi Tom,
      Thank you for the prompt response!

      I have actually tried all three kernels in your link (even though I’m on .32). I get the same result with all of them: when the custom kernel is in place, the PXE client just flickers when I select a menu item. Then if I copy the original kernel back, it works (except for the error).

      Am I missing something?

        make sure the bzImage is owned by the fog.root permissions.
        [code]sudo chown -R fog:root /tftpboot[/code]

          Unfortunately, I’m still experiencing the same condition. I moved your kernel, did the chown and the icon changed (and got my hopes up) but it still just flickered when I clicked a menu on the PXE machine. I then copied the original kernel back and loaded it without issue… 😞

              (I shouldn’t say “without issue” I still get the driver error, of course.)

                  Okay,

                  can you try these commands specifically:
                  [code]cd /tftpboot/fog/kernel
                  sudo mv bzImage bzImage.original.worksKINDA
                  sudo wget -O bzImage https://svn.code.sf.net/p/freeghost/code/trunk/packages/web/service/ipxe/bzImage32
                  sudo chown -R fog:root /tftpboot
                  [/code]

                  It may have just downloaded a corrupt kernel.

                        That worked to load the new kernel! However, it looks like I’m still having a driver problem. 😞

                        No it loads your kernel and says:
                        “esas2r: driver will not be loaded because no ATTO esas2r devices were found
                        lguest: switcher test too large (4384)
                        hub 2-0:1.0: couldn’t allocate port 1 usb_device”

                        It then says couldn’t allocate port 2 (3 and so on…) usb_device

                        It continues to “Attempting to send inventory…” and the prompt just blinks and I have no lint light on the switch.

                          The esas2r issue is to be expected as you likely DO NOT have the esas2 scsi system on your setup.

                          Can you make sure that the USB NIC is running on a NON-USB 3.0 port?

                              Can you try a core kernel, maybe 3.8.8?

                                I did the same steps outlined previously but replaced the wget address with [url]https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v3.x/linux-3.13.tar.xz[/url] and [url]https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v3.x/linux-3.8.8.tar.xz[/url]

                                Both kernels will not work for me. I’m getting “Invalid or corrupt kernel”

                                  the files you’re downloading from kernel.org are not the kernel’s, well not built at least. You’re actually downloading the source files that allow you to build the kernels. This is why you’re seeing “Invalid or corrupt kernel.” Because they’re invalid.

                                      From the web gui, you can go to Other Information/FOG Configuration (the ? icon) -> kernel update and select the kernel you want.

                                        Alright. I updated to 3.8.8 through the webGUI and tried to inventory. I’m getting the attached error now.

                                          I will try to rebuild a core kernel without uvesfb and have all network cards. It’ll likely take some time okay?
