Chainloading Failed - Fog Menu - Boot HD
-
Running Version 13
SVN Revision: 5948When the Fog menu comes up and it auto selects “boot to disk” it fails with chainloading failed.
Any idea why this is happening? I can F12 and manually boot to the HD, bypassing PXE altogether and it works but via the Fog menu it fails.

@Motech09 The default exit type (which is Sanboot) doesn’t work for that particular computer. Just try another. There are two different settings, BIOS and UEFI. Which one that applies is determined by what mode the physical machine’s firmware is in. You can set this per host or with groups.
Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG!

OK we need a bit more info, and a possible recommendation that you update to the 1.3.0 RC series before we do too much debugging.
What is version 13, is that fog 1.3.0 (something)? Since the svn versions became disconnected from the git version I can’t tell if that is current or not.
More to the point of your question, is this a uefi or bios (legacy) based target computer? Also please include the mfg and model number of the target computer.

@george1421 Next, he’ll ask about how to suppress the menu.

Look at you. I did not noticed those two options in the host menu but I did change them in the iPXE menu hoping that would do something. The host is booting pass the Fog menu now, thanks.
Stay tuned for further posts…

My mistake, it is 1.3.0 RC and the host is a Dell 790 BIOS based.
