Fog was working great then we got new laptops in and now, Blank screen after deployed.

[Spencer]

I have Imaged Lenovo G560’s G550’s Sl510s and Edge 15 laptops all with windows 7 on Fog with no problems, now they sent me new laptops E525’s that come up with a blank screen and flashing courser.
I have made 2 new Images and both with same result??? I do not understand why since I have tried 2 times why its not working. also the newest kernel will not DL.

Spencer,

Open terminal (assuming default installation)
type
[code]
cd /tftpboot/fog/kernel/
[/code]

Do a directory listing “ls” you should see “bzImage”

you want to rename that or make a folder called backup and put it in there
[code]
mv bzImage bzImage_backup
[/code]

May need to use sudo mv bzImage bzImage_backup

Now use wget and download the new kernel

[code]
wget http://sourceforge.net/projects/freeghost/files/Kernels/Kernel-3.2.4.core/Kernel-3.2.4.core/download
[/code]

Again you might need “sudo” in front of wget. If that doesn’t work you might have to download it manually from [url]http://sourceforge.net/projects/freeghost/files/Kernels/Kernel-3.2.4.core/[/url]

if it did work using “ls” should now list Kernel-3.2.4.core in the folder we need to rename it bzImage

[code]
mv Kernel-3.2.4.core bzImage
[/code]

Again may need sudo.

Try booting a client device now.

If it fails you can undo what we did by doing this

[code]
mv bzImage bzImage_failed
mv bzImage_backup bzImage
[/code]

I also posted this as well a couple of time’s in various threads:

1. 3.2.4 can be downloaded from here, [url]http://sourceforge.net/projects/freeghost/files/Kernels/Kernel-3.2.4.core/Kernel-3.2.4.core/download[/url]

2. Then you need to backup bzImage in /tftpboot/fog/kernel. so I renamed mine bzImage.backup (If this doesn’t work, either log into the computer under the FOG account, or chmod the folder)

3. When you copy the 3.2.4 kernel to this location rename it to bzImage (note that the case is important) and you should be all set.

Thank you, I will try that.
