      There is no service that is called dhcpd, however there is one called isc-dhcp-server

      I’m a Red-Hat kind of guy, and I do not apologize. 🙂

      Do keep us updated on how it goes.

        Will do! I’m new to Linux in general, I’ve tried a little ubuntu and debian. But I did ubuntu as it seemed to be the best documentet on the wiki 😛

              Hey, I’ve tested the client today.

              At first the client would boot on network, get ip adress, try configure net0 be successful then end with dhcp failed. It then guides me to this page:
              http://ipxe.org/err/040ee1
              And I run

              ifconf -c dhcp net0
              

              Then the message says “Connection timed out” and guide me to:
              http://ipxe.org/err/4c1060
              Then i tried booting on an older client hp compaq 6735b and this one boots up alright.

              So I changed in dhcpd.conf

                  class "Legacy" {
                  match if substring(option vendor-class-identifier, 0, 20) = "PXEClient:Arch:00000";
                  filename "undionly.kkpxe";
              

              to

                  class "Legacy" {
                  match if substring(option vendor-class-identifier, 0, 20) = "PXEClient:Arch:00000";
                  filename "ipxe.kkpxe";
              

              Then the newer client would boot, (in boot it first failed at configuring net0, 00:00:00:00:00, then it tried configuring net1, this was a legit address.)and i tried multicast, then it would complete the first setup and boot partclone, in partclone it says “Starting to restore image (-) to device (/dev/sda1)”, it stop at this window. After checking the server webgui, i saw that the image i was trying to download (i uploaded it at some point from a different computer) stood with 0B, i did a new upload and then it says 465GB, checking the disk with df -h:

              root@ubuntu-fog:/etc/dhcp# df -h
              Filesystem                        Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on

              tmpfs                             566M  1.2M  565M   1% /run
              /dev/mapper/ubuntu--fog--vg-root  105G   21G   79G  21% /
              none                              4.0K     0  4.0K   0% /sys/fs/cgroup
              none                              5.0M     0  5.0M   0% /run/lock
              none                              2.8G  148K  2.8G   1% /run/shm
              none                              100M   24K  100M   1% /run/user
              /dev/sda1                         236M   41M  183M  19% /boot
              

              Tried again to multicast, but stops at same window in partclone.

                @emijoa Ok, progress, that’s great.

                We have a troubleshooting two guides on Multicast. Seeing that you’ve probably been frantically trying a billion things, it’s probably wise to follow the cleanup guide here:

                https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php?title=Troubleshoot_Downloading_-_Multicast

                https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php?title=Multicast

                Run through that and make sure everything looks good - leave no stone unturned. If you come back and say you tried “everything” in there, I’ll assume you really did and that nothing in there is your issue.

                  Hello Wayne, sorry for the late feedback.

                  A lot of things have happened the last few weeks. I had my apprenticeship exam and also I had to finish the task regarding the clients I’ve been testing with.

                  I tried following the guides you referred but they did not work. It seems as when I had the combination of the latest version, ipxe.kkpxe, and the client (HP ProBook 455 G3), not even normal deployment would work. Uploading from this version seemed to create image files with the size of the disk (although used disk space on fog server was normal). The same happened both after cleaning and reinstallation of the server. (I followed all steps again and made it similar.

                  In the end I had to go with normal deployment on 1.2.0 fog server.

                    Were you using 1.2.0 before? Have you tried FOG Trunk yet? Sorry I don’t remember, your problem is from 19 days ago lol.

                      Yes, I tried both trunk and no trunk version.

                      The trunk version was more broken with my clients than the 1.2.0. Image upload would show the size of full disk (deploying to a disk with smaller total size would not work.). Normal deployment did not work at all either, it would only fail when starting.
