      @THEMCV please stand by. I think I have a working solution based on tom’s script. I just want to make sure it doesn’t break anything else. I realize we are sending you in 10 different directions, because each has their own way to go about this.

      We really need to get a wiki page built with a step by step.

      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!

        @george1421 No problem. 🙂

        That would be nice though. I had to jump through a few threads (which is a given sometimes!) and the wiki page for Auto Installing drivers didn’t seem as robust as the scripts that I had found.

        But that’s how progress and the process work. One problem at a time and always improving. 🙂

          @THEMCV First understand this this script won’t copy and paste correctly. For some reason the FOG Forum pages eat the spaces around the conditional tests, but I wanted to get it out here for viewing. I’ll upload the file in a minute.

          Tom: the only question I have is if NO partitions match will the test if [[ ! $? -eq 0 ]]; then still trap it?

          #!/bin/bash
          . /usr/share/fog/lib/funcs.sh
          [[ -z $postdownpath ]] && postdownpath="/images/postdownloadscripts/"
          case $osid in
              5|6|7|9)
                  clear
                  [[ ! -d /ntfs ]] && mkdir -p /ntfs
                  getHardDisk
                  if [[ -z $hd ]]; then
                      handleError "Could not find hdd to use"
          
                  fi
                  getPartitions $hd
                  for part in $parts; do
                      umount /ntfs >/dev/null 2>&1
                      fsTypeSetting "$part"
                      case $fstype in
                          ntfs)
                              dots "Testing partition $part"
                              ntfs-3g -o force,rw $part /ntfs
                              if [[ ! $? -eq 0 ]]; then
                                  echo "Skipped"
                                  continue
                              fi
                              if [[ ! -d /ntfs/windows && ! -d /ntfs/Windows && ! -d /ntfs/WINDOWS ]]; then
                                  echo "Not found"

                                  continue
                              fi
                              echo "Success"
                              break
                              ;;
                          *)

            @george1421 The -eq 0 directly after the done part of the loop will be enacting on the last command ran.

            In this case it would either be echo or break which both will always equal 0.

            The if I’m referring to is not needed because you’re looping directories and immediately after the main mount you’re testing already.

            To correct this, and leave this there, you can add a variable in the first check of the mount success by doing something like:

            ntfsstatus="$?"
            if [[_! $ntfsstatus -eq 0_]]; then
                echo "Skipped"
                continue
            fi
            

            Then change the if check after the loop to check for $ntfsstatus instead of $?.

            A lot of refinement can be added admittedly.

              @george1421 @Tom-Elliott @Quazz Okay, it looks like it worked! Amazing!

              You guys are simply the best devs/mods/team ever.

              Although I forgot to disable FOG Client in my sysprepped image, I fixed and and will be double testing again. It went through the section without a hitch though. 🙂

                  @THEMCV That’s great. I’m going to compile the results of this thread into a tutorial page tonight to get everything in one spot again.

                    @Tom-Elliott Yep, it’s working extremely well. Thank you for helping me (and writing a piece of code for me!).

                    @george1421 Sounds great, that’d be amazing! All of the past places that I’ve worked at (I’m in contact with them after I left) will appreciate the write up. They’ve been wanting to get master images rolling at their school districts (one being ~1,000 PCs), but never have gotten to get them up and running.

                      @THEMCV I did create a write up for creating a single golden image for multiple platforms here: https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/7391/deploying-a-single-golden-image-to-different-hardware-with-fog But because of my NDA with my company I can’t include any of my own scripts. Now with what Tom, Lee an other produced I can compile that into a single document.

                      But this next one will be short and to the point copy and paste this and it “should” work as designed. I’ll leave the big words on the other documents.

                        @george1421 Ah yes, I did read over that one a bit! I finally got it figured out, but I didn’t end up using MDT. 🙂 Very thorough. 🙂

                          apologies both - i could of jumped in sooner to point out about the /fog directory confusion and assisted with the partition code but been swamped as of late but luckily @Tom-Elliott had already sorted partition bit of magic for you guys! 😉

                          @THEMCV if you do only have dell machines and want to use cab files - you can use cabextract which is built into the FOS.

                          something like:

                          cabextract -d /ntfs/Windows/DRV "/fog/Drivers/$osn/${machine}"/*.CAB &>/dev/null;
                          

                          /ntfs/Windows/Drv - Change to wherever you want your drivers to be extracted to

                          /fog/Drivers/etc… - Change to match the directory you store the .cab file on the server. i.e. /images/Drivers/E7270-WIN7-A02-8924F.CAB

                          if you go down the .cab route - use the enterprise cabs as they are tested and put together specifically for image deployment.
                          http://en.community.dell.com/techcenter/enterprise-client/w/wiki/2065.dell-command-deploy-driver-packs-for-enterprise-client-os-deployment

                          if for whatever reason the cab isn’t sufficient and you need to add drivers, you could incorporate both .cab and folders using both sets of code. if you know what i mean?

                          as @george1421 pointed out scripts are a lil’ flawed but where written and posted sometime ago and for my own environment at the time and my own postscripts have come a long way since then.

                          the wiki post would be a very good idea as easier to keep up to date, once that’s done it may be worth changing any old posts with code in, redirecting users to the wiki so they don’t put conflicting or outdated code together. but like @george1421 said, a lot of it is personal preference and there is so many ways of achieving the same thing…

                          Glad you got there in the end though 🙂

                              Hello,
                              Is it possible to have the script complete and that works?

                              It would be nice to have this feature directly integrated into fog in a future version.

                              The management of the drivers customized by machine model is paramount now in the windows images.

                              Thanks Jacky

                                @Jacky94 Its a start: https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/8889/fog-post-install-script-for-win-driver-injection/5

                                But coming up with a universal driver install would be difficult since each company is unique.

                                      Do not worry I know how to fetch my Dell drivers.

                                      But I would like to be able to inject the drivers from the Fog web interface.

                                          postscripts once setup, its literally the case of dropping drivers onto server, you could even setup permissions and map drive onto windows machine so you can “inject” there without even needing to go on the server (or give engineers permission to whole server)… pretty much what ur asking for but rather than through web interface, its network share

                                            I agree with you that it works wonderfully well with postdownloadscripts,
                                            Thanks to the scripts provided by the forum community. Thanks to them.

                                            But we must look for a bit before we find the existence of this functionality.

                                            Many people will turn to OPSI because it is better indicated in the documentation and it is native in the application.

                                            I always love Fog because it’s very light.
