Unable to locate image store.

I took him to completion of the moving the images file and as far as I can tell the system is setup correctly, but he is still getting the error in the original post.

[ManofValor]

ok, I went back to fog management and deleted everything for this client and started over. i got through to the blue screen with red progress bars and it went really quick. It rebooted and then I got:

“Boot device not found”

Please install an operating system on your hard disk

Hard disk (3F0)

F2 system diagnostics

I have been getting this since the beginning. Ive had to reinstall win 7 3-4 times

[george1421]

Interesting. It looks like you are deploying the image. Can you confirm that in /image/mcwp82 you have files in there (with the understanding that /images is being mapped to /opt/fog/images now).

[ManofValor]

@george1421 Yes, it is there.

[Tom Elliott]

@ManofValor Is it a file or is it a directory?

What’s the output of:
ls -lhRart /opt/fog/images

@ManofValor Something seams wrong with that image! Does it only have one partition (d1p1.img) - sure possible. But the image being only 337 KB in size is very unlikely I’d say. Did you see something going wrong when uploading the image?

Please post the output of the following command: cat /opt/fog/images/MCWP82/d1.partitions

As well please check if your images directory is configured properly throughout FOG:

• FOG web interface, Storage Management
• NFS shares (cat /etc/exports)

[ManofValor]

[root@localhost bin]# cat /opt/fog/images/MCWP82/d1.partitions

[george1421]

Since we moved things around you probably should issue this command cat /images/MCWP82/d1.partitions Just so the screen shots are consistent. It better give you the same exact answer.

But looking at the files, and screen shots. It appears your reference computer’s disk image didn’t make it to the fog server completely (mostly didn’t make it).

[ManofValor]

@george1421 It did give the same answer. So now what. BTW, my boss told me to start looking into other imaging options. I would hate for all this work to go to waste but he’s getting antsy for an imaging solution.

Don’t let us hold you back. And if you think that’s going to get you more attention, I do apologize but it won’t - it will push people away if anything. I feel both developers and moderators have given generous time and thought to you because your new, but it’s not nice to say your leaving while your still here (in our house, so-to-speak).

Your image didn’t upload completely, we need to figure out why, and then try again.

Please run this and give the output:
df -h

After that, re-upload this image. We need to know everything and anything that happens out of the ordinary while the upload is going. If you need to, take a video while it gets going so you catch everything.

After upload, please issue this command and give us the output, and then we will go from there.

cd /images/MCWP82;ls -lahRt;cat d1.fixed_size_partitions;cat d1.partitions;cat d1.original.swapuuids;cat d1.original.fstypes;cat d1.minimum.partitions

[ManofValor]

@Wayne-Workman @Tom-Elliott @george1421 @Jbob @Sebastian-Roth Man, I apologize, your absolutely right. I did not mean it to get attention or try to get you guys to work harder. You guys have been more than awesome. I meant it as, “Crap these guys have spent so much time on this with me that I don’t want to move on and have their time have been for nothing”. But I see what you mean about saying that “In your house”, I was going to continue this anyway on my own time but he told me to keep going on it if I think I’m making progress. I am really really grateful to you guys for your time and effort. Please accept my apology.

@ManofValor I have no hard feelings though It did initially hurt.

Apparently my wife’s endless cycling of Harry Potter is hitting home here: “Help will always be given to those who ask for it.”

@Tom-Elliott Sorry for that. Hate being human sometimes…ok a lot of times…lol.

[Wayne Workman]

@ManofValor Ok so you didn’t run out of space… can you try to re-upload and really pay attention to what’s outputted to the screen, and note exactly where the failure occurs? A video of the entire process would be of immense help.

[ManofValor]

@Wayne-Workman So I went to re-image, without changing anything, and it’s working. The first time it got to the image screen, blue screen with red status bars, and it went really quick. This time it’s actually going through the process. I’ve got 7 1/2 min left.Fingers crossed.

[george1421]

Great once you get it working, lets try to break it again…

Actually I’d like you to upgrade to the latest trunk version. There has been some advancements in some of the init scripts that may help you too. But first get it to image capture then deploy. Once that is successful try to upgrade.

[ManofValor]

@george1421 I’m afraid to break it…lol.

That’s because it does progress partition by partition, so the really quick one is the boot partition in front of your main one
