        Technically yes. But fog is not designed for this. It’s slow. It’s hard to reproduce effectively.

        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! Get in contact with me (chat bubble in the top right corner) if you want to join in.

        Web GUI issue? Please check apache error (debian/ubuntu: /var/log/apache2/error.log, centos/fedora/rhel: /var/log/httpd/error_log) and php-fpm log (/var/log/php*-fpm.log)

        Please support FOG if you like it: https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/Support_FOG

          @keith75140 I don’t really get what you mean by “not over the network”?!? Do you mean image from one hard drive to another within one machine?

            @tom-elliott said in Do you have to image over the network to use fog?:

            Technically yes. But fog is not designed for this.

            Said the senior developer who knows ‘it’s possible’.

            @keith75140 I say don’t even try because that’d be sort of like trying to build a house using an F-16 jet fighter instead of a general contractor…

            If you want to image without networking, Clonezilla is the right tool for that.
