Latest FOG 1.0.0

[mlnancejr8808]

I did not…am I suppose to update it to the username and password it gave me as default user or as my password?

[mlnancejr8808]

nevermind, I got it. My password was missing from database_password. Thanks for letting me know where to look though. Still learning as I go…

[BigMan99211]

So… are we still using svn for udpates?

[Tom Elliott]

you can, if you want to be on “the bleeding” edge. Right now it’s the exact same as the release.

[BigMan99211]

Ok. I like the bleeding edge!

I was just unsure if the “fog_0.33b” folder in subversion was going to change.

[Tom Elliott]

there was never a fog_0.33b folder. You create the name.
[code]svn co https://svn.code.sf.net/p/freeghost/code/trunk /opt/fog_0.33b[/code]

If you want the name changed you would just mv the folder to the new name.

or recheckout and change the folder name:
[code]svn co https://svn.code.sf.net/p/freeghost/code/trunk /opt/fog_1.0.0[/code]

[Junkhacker]

just remember that if you use “bleeding edge” svn after this point, it may contain unstable code. tested code will be made available in numbered releases

Hello all,

I hope I am in the correct Forum for this question. I have been searching for a couple of days now.
I am sure I am doing something wrong. I am trying to add options to the iPXE Advanced menu.
I have read through [url]http://fogproject.org/forum/threads/fog-0-33b-edit-pxe-menu.10403/#post-26419[/url] and tried the examples with no success. The following is what I am currently trying.

OS: Ubuntu 14.04
FOG: 1.0.0 r1678

PXE Boot Menu => Advanced Configuration Options:

Imenu ADVANCED MENU[/I]
Icolour --rgb 0xff0000 0[/I]
Icpair --foreground 0 3[/I]
Iitem --gap – -------------------------------------[/I]
Iitem konbootKon-Boot[/I]
COLOR=#ff0000goto ADV-MENU[/I][/COLOR]

Ichain [url]http://${fog-ip}/${fog-webroot}/service/ipxe/iamges/kon-bootCD.iso[/url][/I]

If I remove the section in red, it returns to the Main menu (boot.php).

If I browse to the advanced.php page I get the following.

[url]http://${fog-ip}/fog/service/ipxe/advanced.php[/url]

I#!ipxe[/I]
Iconsole[/I]
Iset fog-ip 10.1.10.24[/I]
Iset fog-webroot fog[/I]
Icpair --foreground 7 --background 2 2[/I]
Iconsole --picture [url]http://${fog-ip}/${fog-webroot}/service/ipxe/bg.png[/url] --left 100 --right 80[/I]
I:ADV-MENU[/I]
Imenu ADVANCED MENU[/I]
Icolour --rgb 0xff0000 0[/I]
Icpair --foreground 0 3[/I]
Iitem --gap – -------------------------------------[/I]
Iitem konbootKon-Boot[/I]
Igoto ADV-MENU[/I]

Ichain [url]http://${fog-ip}/${fog-webroot}/service/ipxe/iamges/kon-bootCD.iso[/url][/I]

Here is a shot of the screen after I try to go to the Advanced Menu.

try this
[CODE]
:ADV-MENU
menu
item --gap —ADVANCED MENU—
item konboot Kon-Boot
choose --default konboot --timeout 5000 target && goto ${target}

:konboot
chain http://${fog-ip}/${fog-webroot}/service/ipxe/iamges/kon-bootCD.iso||
goto ADV-MENU
[/CODE]

[quote=“Junkhacker, post: 26968, member: 21583”]this is a good place to start for your options with the Advanced Boot menu options

Junkhacker,
Thank you for the assist, but it did not resolve my issue. With your code, when I select Advanced Menu, the screen goes blank for about 2 seconds and then back to the main menu.

maybe try this instead
[CODE]:ADV-MENU
menu
item --gap —ADVANCED MENU—
item konboot Kon-Boot
choose --default konboot --timeout 5000 target && goto ${target}

:konboot
chain http://${fog-ip}/${fog-webroot}/service/ipxe/images/kon-bootCD.iso||
goto ADV-MENU[/CODE]

[Albatros]

I tested your code coded and it worked after I changed this line
[CODE]item --gap —ADVANCED MENU—[/CODE]
to that
[CODE]item --gap – -ADVANCED MENU—[/CODE]

Just tried upgrading again, this time from 0.32 to 1.01. We Get an error on Database Schema Updater. Also when we try to list all hosts or all images returns a blank page. A search for a single host or image it returns data.

Thank you Junkhacker and Albatross.

I am now a step closer. I now get the Advanced Menu. When I select a menu item, it goes back to the Main menu.

I have not yet tinkered with this issue. I will see what I can figure out. I’m sure it’s a simple fix.

Thanks again for the help.

[Raff]

Blank page when listing all hosts or all images appears to be memory_limit in php.ini, raising it from Default 128M to 256M solved problem.

Solved that problem.

Changed
CODE:konboot
chain http://${fog-ip}/${fog-webroot}/service/ipxe/images/kon-bootCD.iso||
goto ADV-MENU

to

:konboot
chain http://${fog-ip}/${fog-webroot}/service/ipxe/images/kon-bootCD.iso ||
goto ADV-MENU[/CODE]

Now it tries to load the image. Choosing kon-boot goes to a blank screen with a blinking cursor.

I added

chain http://${fog-ip}/${fog-webroot}/service/ipxe/images/Avast-Slim.iso ||
goto ADV-MENU[/CODE]

When I choose Avast, it shows that it is loading the iso by percents. Once it gets to 100%, it goes back to Advanced Menu.

Still testing…

[Albatros]

Could you test that?
Replace chain with sanboot.

When I change chain to sanboot, it boots the OS from the harddrive.
