    svn 4405 cloud 5469 Fedora 21 Server fully updated.

    I’ve successfully installed ChromiumOS r48 onto an Elitebook, everything works except for the fingerprint scanner… pretty sweet.

    But I can’t take an image. I set the “Operating System” type to “Linux”. I’ve tried non-resizable and resizable. Neither finish. Videos are below.

    I booted a Ubuntu Live USB drive to get some information on the partitions that the ChromiumOS installer created on the drive. Here is that info, BEFORE the upload attempts (fresh OS install).

    fdisk -l

    Multiple Partition Image - Single Disk - Not Resizable - Capture attempt:

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cZjE5PLlIbQ

    Single Disk - Resizable - Capture Attempt (error is at the very end):

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r9c_U6nd5V8

    With the above attempt, I noticed that all the partitions did upload. All the files were sitting in /images/dev/<MAC> So I moved that to the proper directory name underneath /images/EliteBookChromium48 and then tried to deploy the image back to the host.

    Resizable image deploy attempt:

    Any help with this is appreciated… not sure where to go from here.

      We just fixed an issue with Multiple Partitions - Single Disk. Please update to the very latest and see if this helps!

      Edit: As both upload and download in resizeable mode seam to fail with the same error you might want to modify your init.xz to see the actual error produced by sgdisk command. Edit usr/share/fog/lib/partition-funcs.sh (somewhere around line 645) and remove >/dev/null 2>&1 from the end of the sgdisk call(s). You should see real error message then. Hopefully we can figure things out then.

      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)

        It did upload using svn 4408, but there was a “bitmap error” on one of the partitions. I’ll have to re-upload and record to catch the error, don’t remember where it was or exactly what it said.

        Here’s a screenshot of the image info after upload… pretty sweet if you ask me:

        0_1448300624714_upload-24ff9ff3-7935-4b96-afbc-68e9e8ff5534

        I’ll try to deploy this to another EliteBook and see what happens… should be fast… stand by.

          @Sebastian-Roth yeah the image does not restore.

          It fails on /dev/sda5 Says something like “This is not a partclone image”.

          I’m going to go out on a limb and say this is probably the partition that failed to upload.

            Much to my surprise, after a half-way completed image restore and failure… ChromiumOS r48 booted… wow.

                Have you tried my suggest on modifying your init.xz to see the real error behind “Failed to fill partition (add)”?? See my first post.

                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)

                    Right now I’m running FOG Trunk on Fedora 21 Server minimal with r6303 installed.

                    I just tried uploading ChromiumOS Revision 50 from an EliteBook 8730w

                    I can say with 100% certainty that Fog worked 100%.

                    Revision 50 has 12 partitions, 3 of which qualified for resizing and resized properly.

                    We just tested deploying it as well - worked 100%, every partition, all 3 re-sized ones too.

                    For this laptop operating in Legacy/BIOS mode - the HDD exit type needs set to GRUB.

                    As a side note - the device we deployed to asked us to re-enter WiFi information but the image remained enrolled - but there was an error about conflicting Device IDs - so FYI do not take an image while enrolled!!! I’d recommend taking an image IMMEDIATELY after OS install - don’t even let it boot for the first time.

                    Thread Solved.

                      For those that are wondering, here are my brief instructions for installing ChromiumOS onto the Elitebook.

                      Arnold The Bat - latest special build (x86 or x64)
                      http://arnoldthebat.co.uk/wordpress/chromium-os/

                      Burn to flash drive or hdd per his instructions:

                      Linux:
                      Extract with p7zip
                      burn to drive using:
                      dd if=ChromeOS.img of=/dev/sdX bs=4M

                      Windows:
                      extract using 7zip
                      burn to drive using https://launchpad.net/win32-image-writer/

                      Boot

                      Go into chros shell with:
                      Ctrl + Alt + F2

                      Username is chronos
                      password is password

                      Install OS:

                      /usr/sbin/./chromeos-install --dst /dev/sda
