    hi,
    I find an interesting feature in FOG PXE Configuration : the hide menu option / no menu option.

    I want to use this feature in the idea to choose the LAN card first boot on my classroom
    computers : after to set the LAN card at first boot, the idea is :

    • use a WOL soft to wake up my 25 computers …
    • IF there is an image => deploy the image.
    • IF theren’t an image => boot on the HDD.
      AND i don’t want the students to see the FOG menu …
      BUT, i’m not the only user on the FOG server (our FOG is used in different geographic locations) and my collegues want to display the 3sec menu boot FOG on theirsclassroom computers …

    Is there a way to applies the hide menu / no menu configuration only on a group of hosts ?

    I found a subject about a same request (https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/9671/add-enhanced-ipxe-boot-menu-capabilities-based-on-host-associations/2) but no mores informations about this request …

    My stuff :
    Server :
    FOG Version : Running Version 1.5.9
    OS : Debian GNU/Linux 10
    FOG Client Version : 0.12
    Specifications :
    > All images are on a Synology NAS storage : mounted with NAS_ip:/images
    > French user :)

      Just use hide-menu. You have to enter valid credentials to show the menu if hide-menu is enabled. No credentials, no menu.

      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!
