Nothing is working...
-
I have done that twice, but I’m not opposed to doing it again if you think that will solve it.
-
I would suggest you cleanly scrub out your current FOG install and all packages that are then no longer needed, then start again.
And honestly I would suggest using about any other Linux distro other than Ubuntu 14.04.

I tried putting 10.04 on, but the PC didn’t like that for some reason. I might try the x86 install

Or you could try Debian if you feel attached to a Ubuntu like ecosystem. Ubuntu’s core is Debian, and the freshest latest release of Debian works flawlessly with Fog.

Is there a working install I could use from a flash drive? Ubuntu didn’t seem to like the flash drive.
Scratch that, sorry.

FWIW, my ubuntu 14.04 server is working fine.
-
I’m not sure what I did.
I’m just a lowly intern, please forgive me.

Being a lowly intern means somebody “higher” than you can possibly lead you in the right direction.
That being said, I don’t know what the issue is, but it almost sounds like a firewall is blocking access to the TFTP server. Have you tried simply disabling the firewall?
[code]sudo ufw disable[/code]

I think I have found the issue. I work at a bank where we have a separate building for out IT stuff. Well, our IT building is on a different switch than the bank is. Things seem to boot fine in the bank, but not in the IT building, where the FOG server is. I think I am going to move the FOG server around that switch and get it off of this switch.
-
Can you confirm the switch Make and model?
-
It is a Dell PowerConnect
-
It seems that a “Dell PowrConnet” has Spanning Tree Proticol (STP) enabled by default.
~[url]http://en.community.dell.com/support-forums/network-switches/f/866/p/17031843/17154977.aspx[/url]If you disable this feature on this switch it may allow PXE to route through.
To quote Tom another thread…
[QUOTE]2) Check all networking switches that can be managed have portfast enabled (cisco) and/or *STP Spanning Tree Protocol) are disabled on the switch. The and/or meaning with Cisco, portfast should be all that’s needed, but turn off Spanning Tree Protocol if you can just to ensure this is NOT a factor in blocking the DHCP from iPXE.
