    @wwarsin Thanks for reminding me on this! Can you please go for another debug session and run hdparm with a different parameter to see how this behaves: hdparm -W /dev/mmcblk0

    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)

      @Sebastian-Roth I’m using the streams on this, and they’re running into the exact same problem with the mmcblk0 drive.
      after running both hdparm -i and hdparm -W i was getting failed invalid argument.

        @drc0nc Thanks for letting me know! @Tom-Elliott Seams like we need to look into this again and find a way to check for writeCache without it failing on mmcblk devices. Any ideas? Maybe check the return code of hdparm?

        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)

          @Sebastian-Roth the write cache problem was only a warning, but I did come up with a fix I think anyway. There was no error code returned that showed there was or wasn’t a problem, so the fix I’ve added is to check the variable we store the check in. If the value has write cache with a value of not supported or is blank we won’t try enabling write support to begin with.

          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.

            Looks good from my point of view. @wwarsin and @drc0nc could you try updating to the very latest and give it a try?

                @Sebastian @drc0nc Please let us know what kernel you used, what version of FOG, what boot file, what USB to Ethernet adapter (the model), what kernel parameters or HDD parameters, and anything else special that you’ve done to get this device working.

                I’m going to add this device to the Wiki’s working hardware list, that’s why I need all that stuff.

                  Fog trunk 6327
                  boot file ipxe.efi
                  usb to ethernet adapter with ASIX AX88772B chip usb2 to 10/100. (I’ve been testing out gig to usb 3 adapters but no luck booting so far)
                  Host Kernel Arguments has_usb_nic=1
                  Host Primary Disk /dev/mmcblk0
                  I’m using the HP Streams. I believe you already updated the wiki pertaining to these. We’ve lost the ability for a little while but @Tom-Elliott got it squared away.

                    @drc0nc Oh, I thought you were working with a Surface 3?

                      @Wayne-Workman no, but the streams have the same hard drive, the mmcblk0.

                        @wwarsin Any updates from your side? The inits have been improved a lot in the last month and so far we made most of the tablets out there work with FOG. Please upgrade to the latest and see if it works for you as well. Please let us know!
