Not a partclone image
-
It doesn’t seem to matter what I set the image to. Partclone for Partimage same results. JunkHacker says all the images uploaded are Partclone so I shouldn’t have to change anything since these are fresh images on 1.0.1
-
That’s correct, but what are you changing when you’re “Playing with the TinyCore” files?

I only install Ubuntu on this to make an image from it. Ultimately I want to make it so I can Boot TinyCore Linux from FOG with GUI Support to act as a Zero Client for VMware. I have a working version of TinyCore with VMware-View Loaded. It pops up and covers the screen beautifully. No one can do anything with the OS just use View-Client. Well I am reading and it seems for the GUI to be included in the core I am loading I need to remaster it. So I was playing with a current version of TinyCore (it includes more keyboard and network drivers then I have in my current core) and had it install to the local hard drive. This dumped the Partitions Ubuntu made. TinyCore didn’t install like it should have so I said hey perfect time to test and see in the deploying process really will work.
And here I am. This has been a lot harder to get this working then it should be. We have an old tech here who wants to load my current version of TinyCore on a bunch of really cheap USB drives and get USB Extension cables and hang them on the inside of the machines. This means we would have cables going into our boxes to run the OS and I can’t stand that idea. There has to be a better way to deploy this on a larger scale. That is when I came across FOG.
Currently this old Tech is using CloneZilla by slaving HDD on his machine to image new machines and I want to get away from that as well.

If you can, please try the latest trunk (SVN) of fog and see if the updated init.xz’s will help make a successful image.
