There’s this: https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php?title=Installation_on_CentOS_6.4
But it’s very out-dated material and not very well written.I’d recommend using CentOS 7 and FOG Trunk. We have a beautiful article on it that goes step-by-step right here, it even has a video!

boom job done
now i need to find out how to actually use it, ie capture and deploy images, dont really understand why you need to add hosts ie computers to the fog server?
https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php?title=Installation_on_CentOS_6.4
i disbaled selinux and iptables
installed repos - epel/elrepo/remi/rpmforge
installed packages it asks for
downloaded fog, ran the install script
followed the onscreen instructions

Start playing with it and I am sure you’ll find out soon!
Just let us know if you run into issues. -

i dont see the operating system that i want to create the image for (windows 10)
image management > create new image > operating system

@robertkwild As I posted in the other thread,
“I would recommend that you install the FOG trunk version (1.2.0 trunk a.k.a pre1.3.0) and not 1.2.0 stable if you need support for uefi, gpt, and windows 10 support. https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/Upgrade_to_trunk
You can install the trunk version directly and don’t need to install 1.2.0 stable first. Just go directly to the trunk. Use svn or git to get the installer then launch the installer. For Centos FOG installs clean without any problems.”
