    Trying to pull the image off of a sysrepped Windows 10 box:

    Already tried chkdsk on all partitions and drive.

    Using single disk (Resizable)

    Not sure how to get past this.

      @Psycholiquid Can you capture a picture of this? I’ve never seen this issue.

        The error right before the first picture is the fatclone error. Going to reset back to the orig image from the HDD backup I made to try and get a video of it.

          @Psycholiquid YOu don’t need to do anything.

          Prepare the system for upload in debug.

          Before running fog, run fixparts /dev/nvme0n1

              not sure I’ve I’m sending you on a wild goose chase or not. I just remember reading about win10 systems where the hard drive is left in an inconsistent state after capture of win10.

              If I remember correctly, win 10 doesn’t actually shut down the system when you shut it down, it actually suspends the system to allow for faster startup. This is causing an issue with imaging.

              One would think a shutdown issues by sysprep would address this. One fix I saw was to power off the machine during a reboot, when the system was in the bios part. Then capture the machine from there.

              My point to this is the error may not be a fog issue, but a windows image capture one. (I’m trying to find the supporting documentation to my remembrance).

                @george1421 I am at the end of believing that. If you watch the boot up process it doesn’t actually uefi boot it immediately spins the dots and the logon comes on. It is hard to tell though due to the nvme drive being so fast.

                  @Psycholiquid Sorry I was in error, this is on the upload side and what I was reading about was actually after the image was deployed you would have to run through some kind of disk fix to basically delete the hibernation file that was in use when the system was captured. I’m still trying to find that article (I read way to much stuff and remember way to little).

                    @george1421 Also I have run chkdsk multiple times and it doesn’t help. Seems to be that same partition over and over. windows sucks, I don’t think they even thought about this when they designed it. In order ot get my vol license image onto a surface I have to upgrade the surface OS, I can’t just install it. So that means I have to do reg hacks and such just to be able to sysprep it. I have heard the same complaints form people who use MDT also, so its not like they are trying to squeeze people out.

                          @Tom-Elliott This is what I was afraid of, the disk is GPT because that is the UEFI way it was setup. Which is which way most computers are going (All Surfaces are this way)

                          So where do I go from here?

                            @Psycholiquid While you are in debug mode, can you run fsck /dev/nvme0n1p2

                            Is this the exact error you are seeing in partclone “Filesystem isn’t in valid state. May be it is not cleanly unmounted.”???

                                  @Sebastian-Roth I can tell you that is the EFI partition of windows that is used to boot it, but I have made sure I am shutting it down cleanly. I have even set the sysprep to shutdown rather than reboot.

                                    @Psycholiquid Are you able to mount the partition in debug mode?

                                    mkdir -p /mnt
                                    mount -t vfat /dev/nvme0n1p2 /mnt
                                    ls -al /mnt
                                    umount /mnt

                                        @Psycholiquid What if you add 1 to the d1.fixed_size_partitions file? Will it work then? It looks like it’s growing the EE partition when it really shouldn’t be.

                                          @Psycholiquid Looking through the partclone code I found out that there is a thing called “clean shutdown bit/flag” within the FAT (file allocation table). This sounds like it could be related to the NTFS dirty bit but is definitely a whole lot different - after all it’s FAT not NTFS. When searching the web for FAT and dirty bit a lot of people point you to the 0x41 byte (0x25 fog FAT16) of the partition which seams to be some kind of mount/fs-check/dirty marker as well but it’s definitely not the one partclone is complaining about! The one I found is relevant sits in the second reserved FAT entry. This is the best/simplest description I could find - and here another one. With that information I was able to replicate the error message you are seeing. The problem is I used a hex editor and dd to modify this on disk - so I don’t have an easy solution yet. Interestingly enough - even if partclone complains about it I could still mount the filesystem (just as you could). So I have no idea why partclone is checking this flag (where mount is not!) and who/what set this on your system?!?

                                          I haven’t found any tool that would set/unset this “clean shutdown flag” for you. Linux fsck only un/sets the dirty bit AFAIK. Some say you can use windows chkdsk tool but I am not able to confirm this. In your case nvme0n1p2 is the EFI boot partition and I am not sure if you are able to run chkdsk on this partition from within a running windows system?!

                                          I guess we could come up with some C-code to do this for you. Here is a nice example on how to read that flag.

                                          I wonder if anyone else has looked into this yet? Is anyone aware of the difference between dirty bit and clean shutdown bit here in the forums??
