        Can you walk us trough exactly what you get now? Does it grab an IP to PXE to, does anything from fog show up, does it retrieve the init.xz or the bzimage file?

          Hi thanks for your reply… it looks just like it does now in post #1… that’s my hyper-v windows 7 machine… all other physical clients are unaffected

            Ok, did you comment out this line as you did before?

            [QUOTE][B]//print “console --picture $this->booturl/ipxe/bg.png --left 100 --right 80\n”[/B][/QUOTE]

            [QUOTE]sorry, thats a typo on my part…BootMenu.class.php is what was restored. thanks[/QUOTE]
            By restored i’m assuming you put the default menu back in.

                If you want,

                You can try the lastest svn too.

                Since 1.2.0 I’ve learned how to test whether the console part will operate or not and adjust the screen accordingly.

                Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG! Get in contact with me (chat bubble in the top right corner) if you want to join in.

                Web GUI issue? Please check apache error (debian/ubuntu: /var/log/apache2/error.log, centos/fedora/rhel: /var/log/httpd/error_log) and php-fpm log (/var/log/php*-fpm.log)

                      Hi Jah, I have been using Hyper-V to do some Win7 64 bit images. You have to have a legacy NIC on the Vm and the boot order in the BIOS must be this legacy NIC. And the Fog server doing the DHCP

                        Hi thanks for your reply… Yes its a Legacy NIC on Hyper-v and set to first boot… however my on site DHCP server is serving the dynamic IPs.

                        I do get an IP address from my DHCP…it just displays the error in POST #1

                        Thanks again for looking at this.
