    Oh no I want to figure this out and i sure other people out there with Lenovo X1s will come across this issue. Plus I like the fully automated service FOG provides.

    I will try the USB FOS suggestion.

      @wcheung maybe I missed it but have you simply tried adding has_usb_nic=1 to kernel args?

        Just trying to link some relatively similar threads. In the hopes, of course, they may contain helpful information or at least show we’re not sitting around.

          @wcheung In the link that Tom posted [ https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/7302/lenovo-thinkpad-yoga-260-w-lenovo-thinkpad-usb-3-0-ethernet-adapter-fru-03x6903 ] The Op just posted he has success with a Yoga and ThinkPad in uefi mode using a Onelink+ to rj45 adapter. It may be worth your while to review his thread.

              Hi @george1421,

              So I think i figured it out, after creating the USB disk, before even using the FOS disk I went to test to make sure the problem still exists from yesterday.

              Turns out… The USB Ethernet adapter was the problem. Its not so much it doesn’t work, it has to do with something with the MAC ID on the USB Ethernet adapter.

              I’ve notice since day lets say M1 uses the usb ethernet adapter (by lenovo) and gets the MAC id, say MAC_1
              then plug the same adapter into machine 2 (M2) fog will see it as only one host.

              So the lesson here is… keep track of your usb ethernet adapters that have MAC ADDR on them. Lenovo has created different Ethernet adapters that don’t have Mac IDs on them.

              Now the problem is after I select “Perform Full Registration” I get a black screen. Would this be Kernel related?

                  @Tom-Elliott @george1421 you guys been a world of help and I just want to help back anyways I can with what I got.

                  So it is all good, I got the USB FOS disk working, but no need. All I had to do was use the OneLine+ Ethernet adapter and it resolved all my issues. I was able to capture and deploy images with in 2~5 mins. This X1 Gen 4 was a big headache but this PCIE 3.0 x4 SSD should be worth it… I hope.
