Windows 8 Deployment Problem

[BPSTravis]

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

[tjd230]

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?

[BPSTravis]

Did you upload as single pat/disk resizeable? if so you need to use sysprep first.

Otherwise use multipart/single disk not resizeable.

[tjd230]

I did use multiple partition single disk non resize

[BPSTravis]

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.

I did all of that. Just to be sure, I am doing a re-image of one of the machines that failed over the weekend.

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