        @Avaryan I’m thinking I need the wimboot stuff to make my Mobscene boot. What did you do to get wimboot installed?

          @rbasart Wimboot is for booting from a .wim (Windows Imaging Format). I doubt that Mobscene uses that.

          Anyway, I just copied from the wimboot files into the root of the directory I placed my DaRT files into.

          http://ipxe.org/wimboot

            I was thinking about adding this to my fog menu as well, can you provide me some links on how you got that built? I’ve got the MDOP downloading now, but help from someone who has conquered that particular beast would be much appreciated.

            Thanks

              Sure. I did this on Windows 7 and MDOP version for it. Newer OS’s use the newer version. Instructions are probaly the same or similar.

              The first step is, obviously, to install the version that corresponds to your OS.
              After that is installed hit the Start button. Type in ‘dart’. Click the ‘DaRT Recovery Image’ option. You’ll need a Windows DVD or mounted .iso.

              Follow the instructions to customize your build. I just selected everything.

              And… I have a meeting in 20 minutes. Will continue this afterwards.

                I’m special, ignore the last. Still will wait for you to reply so that I can try this out. Seems extremely helpful.

                  My FOG server is running on Ubuntu with apache2. So if you’re running something else the directions may be different.

                  At this point I assume you’ve downloaded and installed DaRT and opened the ‘DaRT Recovery Image’ tool and created a custom .iso.

                  Next you’ll need to either mount, burn, or extract the files inside the .iso. Copy everything to /var/www/html/DaRT7 on your folder.

                  You’ll also want to download and extract wimboot and place those files inside the DaRT folder. The inside of your folder should look like this:
                  alt text

                  Link to wimboot.

                  Next go to the web side of your FOG server.
                  FOG Configuration --> iPXE Boot Menu

                  Scroll all the way down and click the ‘Advanced configuration options’ to expand the menu. Copy/paste/save into the box.

                  :MENU
                  menu
                  item --gap -- ---------------- iPXE Advanced Boot Menu ----------------
                  item dart7 Microsoft Diagnostics and Recovery Toolset (DaRT7)
                  item return Return to Previous Menu
                  choose --default return --timeout 15000 target && goto ${target}
                  :dart7
                  kernel http://${fog-ip}/DaRT7/wimboot
                  initrd http://${fog-ip}/DaRT7/boot/bcd BCD
                  initrd http://${fog-ip}/DaRT7/boot/boot.sdi boot.sdi
                  initrd http://${fog-ip}/DaRT7/sources/boot.wim boot.wim
                  boot
                  :return
                  chain http://${fog-ip}/${fog-webroot}/service/ipxe/boot.php?mac=${net0/mac} ||
                  prompt
                  goto MENU
                  autoboot
                  

                  Go to FOG Configuration --> iPXE Menu Customization
                  Click on fog.advanced. Change ‘Menu Show with:’ to ‘Advanced Options’. Save changes.
                  Click on fog.advancedlogin. Change ‘Menu Show with:’ to ‘All Hosts’. Save changes.

                  Grab and computer. PXE boot to the FOG Menu. You should have an Advanced Menu option towards the bottom. Click on it. It should prompt for your FOG username/password.

                  That’s it.

                    Just want to weigh in that for me personally, with DaRT iso, I don’t have to unpack it. It’s generally wise to do so as it tends to work better on average, however.

                    initrd ${msdart-url}/MSDaRT8.1x64.iso
                    chain memdisk iso raw
                    

                    Has worked so far for me.

                      I tried it with the windows 10 DART iso and that didn’t work for me. Throws an error. I will try the other method.
