Windows 8 Deployment Problem
-
Now that’s just odd…
Only suggestion I can make is to update to Tom’s 3.14.1 Kernels --> [SIZE=12px]Kernel Issues: [/SIZE][URL=‘http://fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/FAQ’][SIZE=12px]http://fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/FAQ[/SIZE][/URL]

Wel that made it worse. I downloaded Tom’s latest kernel and now I get:
[FONT=Lucida Grande][COLOR=#000000]ipxe Error: Exec format error [/COLOR][/FONT][B][FONT=Lucida Grande][COLOR=#000000]Error code 2e0080)[/COLOR][/FONT][/B]Tom, do you have a list of previous revisions of the kernel? Also, when I go to kernel updates in my server, nothing populates on the list, neither Published Kernels, nor Unofficial Kernels. Any reason for this?
-
If those pages don’t work then FOG is not seeing an external connection OR something is blocking the traffic to get to Tom’s site.
Does the login page display the FOG site info below the login box?:
[CODE]Estimated FOG sites: 4354Latest Version: 0.32[/CODE]
-
Hmm, no. It just sits there loading but never displays the info.
-
Then your FOG server sees no external connection(to the internet).
Did you set it up with two NIC’s or just one?
-
Added my DNS servers into interfaces. Wow I feel dumb. Now, when I try to download and Unofficial Kernel it tells me:
[SIZE=16px][FONT=Ubuntu][COLOR=#ff0000]Error: Download failed: filesize = 0[/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE] -
[QUOTE][SIZE=16px][FONT=Ubuntu][COLOR=#ff0000]Error: Download failed: filesize = 0[/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE][/QUOTE]
We are working on that issue. -
Hmm ok. Well I suppose I could try pulling a raw image then. Otherwise I am sitting dead in the water.
-
For now, whatever kernel you want to download, open a terminal to the fog sever and do this:
[CODE]cd /var/www/fog/service/ipxe
touch NAMEOFYOURDOWNLOADEDKERNEL
cd backup
touch NAMEOFYOURDOWNLOADEDKERNEL[/CODE]
And then use the UI to download the kernel, it should complete now.
Just make sure whatever name you are going to type into the box for the kernel is what you replace “NAMEOFYOURDOWNLOADEDKERNEL” with.
On a side note, if you leave the name bzimage it should download fine.
-
Well that is working wonderfully. Thank you Travis! Now I just have to find the right one that will work for me. o_O
-
Well I am completely up and running! Thank you guys so much for your patience and support!
-
The kernel page is fixed in the latest revision now.
Glad to hear you are up and running!
-
I might actually have an issue. I am getting no boot device found upon reboot. Win 8 image. I feel like I saw this somewhere, but cannot remember where. Any other information?
-
Did you upload as single pat/disk resizeable? if so you need to use sysprep first.
Otherwise use multipart/single disk not resizeable.
-
I did use multiple partition single disk non resize
-
Did you disable secure boot before you uploaded the image?
If not, that’s your problem.

Windows 8/8.1 UEFI/GPT Imaging and FOG 0.33, for now, requirements to successfully image upload or download are:
1.) Disable secure boot. (Truly disable it. Some motherboards will report it as disabled, but not actually disable it, so to verify, try booting to an EFI Shell if possible. Usually this can be done through the bios as well.)
2.) Perform Image task (upload or download).
3.) Re-enable Secure boot. -

Nope, still broken. I cannot wrap my head around why this isn’t working.
