    @tformentini Yes you are running 4.19.x series. That is a little old and does not have the drivers built in for the latest hardware.

    To update you do this from inside the FOG Web user interface. It is easy. Go to FOG Configuration -> Kernel update. You will see a listing of kernels. Select 5.10.71 for both 64 bit and 32 bit. Once that is done you can verify by running the same command line command as you did before. It should confirm as 5.10.71

    This is where computer imaging isn’t exactly a smooth process. Unfortunately, machines implement displaying a drive however they see fit, even across the same model of different machines. Typically the channels that an HDD is connected to (SATA 0, SATA 1, etc…) are followed to some level, but sometimes this isn’t the case (as I imagine you’re seeing now).

    It is possible to tell FOG which drive to use, though it doesn’t know if the drive is ssd or hybrid or spinner. This is completely dependent on the machine, and if you can’t rely on which will be populated as what letter (my guess is your machines were setup in RAID mode of sorts?) that isn’t really going to help you much.

    One way you could do this though, is to swap out the /usr/share/fog/lib/funcs.sh file and change the getHardDisk function to detect your drive sizes. (You can do the swap out using postinit scripts.) But then it’s implicit that all machines will follow the same method.

    The steps I would take, albeit more time consuming initially:

    Install the SSD to the 1st SATA Channel (if that’s how your machines are setup – I can’t help much in the case of NVMe/MMC builtin controllers as I have nothing to base them on yet).

    Move the 1TB to the second SATA Channel.

    Ensure the machine’s firmware is updated to the latest and greatest.

    Ensure the machine’s SATA operation mode is AHCI.

    If these don’t make your SSD display as /dev/sda then I don’t know else to tell you to try.

    Have you checked what the settings are under SATA Operation in the BIOS/UEFI? I noticed on some of our machines if SATA operation is set to ATA on the image and then the machine was set to AHCI or SCSI that it would not image properly. The image installs correctly and it starts to boot but it does not function at all until you change the setting in the BIOS/UEFI.

    Cheers!

    @Omanimous Without knowing the exact details. A 128GB disk (ssd or hdd) from two different manufacturers are usually different sized down to the byte level. So in theory if your source disk is one byte larger than your destination disk a non-resize FOG image will fail.

    I can say for my reference image (which I deploy to all hosts), I create on a VM with a 40GB hard drive. That way I’m assured it will deploy to all hardware on my campus. For win10 I use a 60GB reference image.

    With FOG 1.2.0 I used non-resizable and then let windows expand the disk. With the 1.2.0 trunk build FOG expands the disk now. I still use a 40GB reference image for Win7. So I always go smaller to larger when the image is deployed.
