here you go hope this helps!

How long have you waited after seeing those messages? Seconds, minutes or maybe hours?
Please remove theacpi_osi=Linuxoption and add this onepcie_aspm=force. See if this makes any difference and please wait a couple of minutes… -
I left it on over the weekend so hours and with the acpi_osi=Linux i left for over an hour. with the pcie_aspm=force longer than 10 min still no change.

@Sebastian-Roth also I played the video myself and watched it step by step there is a part that says:
Simple Boot Flag value 0x81 read from CMOS RAM was invalid
Simple boot Flag at 0x44 set to 0x1
ACPI FADT declares the system doesn’t support PCIe ASPM, so disable itnot sure if you saw that.

Yes, this is why I asked you to try pcie_aspm. Are you able to boot any sort of live linux on this machine?
Edit: I really doubt that your kernel or init files are corrupt as you’d probably see crc or ext2 filesystem errors then. But you could still try downloading the latest kernel and init files by hand. Just to make sure… Take a look at my first post here: https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/6147/boot-menu-and-kernel-panic/2 (this is only the init files but I am sure you can do this for the kernels as well)

some updates about this, I downloaded the init.xz and bzimage the way it is shown in the link, but when I tried to boot it failed at bzimage so I then went to kernel update in the fog gui and downloaded the 4.3.0 bzimage I noticed in my tftp folder I could change the undionly.kkpxe to ipxe.efi. did that and changed my boot back to efi and when it boots it now gets to part clone interface but fails. I think that part is because the image was made differently. I am going to remake the image and see what happens. as to weather or not I can boot to a live linux, I tried cent os and it hung and didnt boot and I dont have another os handy at this moment.

Sounds great. Wouldn’t have thought that you can make it work using UEFI. Please keep us posted on this. Very interesting indeed! Would be great if you could post all the settings you used to make it work, e.g. BIOS/UEFI, undionly.kpxe/ipxe.efi, kernel parameters, kernel version, exact USB NIC model (PCI ID), … thanks!

well i have updated and configured the machine I wanted to image and when I click on the host link to select the host to start the upload I am unable to view the screen the host page is just blank…I checked the /var/www/fog/lib/pages folder and the hostmanagementpage.class.php has the node name as host and i dont know enough programming to find the information in the index.php that would point to the host page i am at a loss.
-
When a page from the web interface comes up blank you better check your apache error log (http://www.codeasite.com/index.php/linux-a-apache/94-how-do-i-find-apache-http-server-log-files) and post the last few lines. Did you update to the latest version? I wonder why this is happening just now.
-
yes sigh i did update i knew better but still did it anyway…the apache log has this:
[Tue Nov 24 16:52:39.958421 2015] [:error] [pid 1359] [client xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:58640] PHP Warning: mysqli::real_escape_string(): Couldn’t fetch mysqli in /var/www/html/fog/lib/db/MySQL.class.php on line 165, referer: http://10.3.1.100/fog/management/index.php
-
At first sight I thought this might be a DB issue on jeffj’s system. But we have another report on this: https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/6228/unable-to-upload-image-svn-5495
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)
Please support FOG if you like it: https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/Support_FOG

@Sebastian-Roth I’m pretty sure I got the real escape string error now. I’m also fairly sure that while the error is annoying, this was not the cause of the inability to image. Of course a test and report would still be nice to have.
-
this morning I updated to 5572 and after I fixed the memory problem that was not allowing the host page to load I was able to start the capture of the image. I will update again after it has finished about deploying the image to another machine but so far it looks like it may work.
-
SUCCESS! I have successfully created and deployed the images for these machines in efi mode. Thank you for all the help!
