        @Wayne-Workman ,

        I assume these tutorials are out of date:

        and

        https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php?title=USB_Bootable_Media

        They’re not working for me. Granted I could be doing it wrong!

          The init’s up right now have had a minor correction to address the problem presented here.

          The issue was a switch from WGET to Curl. As we switched to curl, a piece of extra information was being passed not allowing the request to return the proper data.

          I’ve corrected this in the latest, though you will likely need to install the working-1.3.5 branch to see the change. That or you can download the current inits directly with:

          wget -O /var/www/fog/service/ipxe/init.xz https://fogproject.org/inits/init.xz
          wget -O /var/www/fog/service/ipxe/init_32.xz https://fogproject.org/inits/init_32.xz

            working-1.3.5

            Hi,

            Thanks for the feedback. I was already running Version 1.3.5-RC-12.

            Now I also seem to have corrupted my USB bootdisk 😞 You wouldn’t by any chance have an iso for me?

                @x23piracy ,

                Because if I just pxe boot from the NIC directly I get:

                0_1489099159070_error.jpg

                I’m using the snponly.efi bootfile.

                  @mandrade Have you removed the device, replugged it back after about 5 seconds, then press the Enter key as it suggests?

                    Beyond that message, you may need to follow the original instructions you used to create the first FOG USB Bootdisk.

                      keyboard doesn’t seem to work. Yeah tried that!

                      Perhaps I should try connecting an external keyboard. Will give that a try and will get back to you.

                          And the only ISO FOG creates is within /tftpboot/ipxe.iso (maybe this is what you were looking for?)

                            I tried to follow this article but am unable to create the bootdisk. Granted I could be doing something wrong, I am a noob when it comes to Linux.

                                      Did you get this working?

                                      There are 2 different ways of booting a device from a usb stick.

                                      1. Via iPXE into the FOG menu (easy or harder way tutorials)
                                      2. Via placing the FOS engine on the USB and booting from there.

                                      I’ve been working with another forum member on option 2 and it seems both have the same issue with hinfo.txt file not being created, or being created incorrectly.

                                        @george1421 We did get this working.

                                        ALthough the problem specifically here with not network booting had to do more with the fact the keyboard was not recognizable.
