Is there any FOG forum in German language?

[chad-bisd]

Ubuntu 12.04 hat Probleme mit TFTP und einige Paket Veränderungen, die nicht immer gut mit FOG. Ubuntu 10.04 LTS funktioniert super und ist die am meisten auf den Foren unterstützt.

O.K. I try to install ubuntu 10.04 Where can I find the iso-file for download. May be you must help me with installation.
Best regards

I`m going on to install ubuntu 10.04 During installation there is the question “What software should be installed:
DNS server
LAMP server
Mail server
and so on”
Is there any software I should select?
If installation and upgrade is successful is it possible to copy the fog folder which I saved from ubuntu 12.04 to an external hdd or is there an other way to install fog?
Best regards and thanks very much

/opt/fog

But now there is another big problem. I finished installation started ubuntu and after login I only get a commandline. I cant work with commandline, Im a absolutly newcomer with linux. I need a graphical desktop like gnome or anything else. What can I do?

most of FOG admin is all done through the Web user interface, so there is no need for a GUI.

but if you must,

sudo apt-get install gnome-desktop-environment

no reason to keep /opt/fog either.

I`m not even able to start a webbrowser from commandline therefor I need gnome.
If there is no reason to copy the fog folder from where or how can I get fog now?
thanks

O.K. Was a hard job but I finished installation of the fog-server. I`m not shure whether I answered all the questions correctly but hope I can fix it later if something was wrong. After fog-installation I installed the fog-service at a windows-client.
But the client only boots into windows
What can I do now?

Boot to LAN or network boot. Choose option from menu to perform full host registration and inventory.

[schnappi]

First boot order in bios is PXE but the client doesnt boot from network. When I had ubuntu 12.04 it did. What can I do now?

[chad-bisd]

any error message when booting from LAN? Does your client get IP address from DHCP server?

[schnappi]

No error message but it seems like client is searching a DHCP-Server and doesn`t find any. In what file can I set the IP-Adresse of the DHCP-Server. and should I take the Fog-servers ip or my routers ip?
At the client I found a file with name
fog.log

Only one device should be serving DHCP. Either FOG or your router, but not both. Pick one and disable DHCP on the other.

[schnappi]

There was a question about DHCP during fog-installation but I didn`t set any IP. I think this is the problem. Where can I change this. Should I start the fog installation again? And I think after fixing the problem I have to install the fog service at the windows client again.

[schnappi]

I deleted the fog config file, reinstalled fog and set the fog-server as dhcp-server this time. And now everything is fine. Thanks.
