      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 :)

        @jonathan-cool said in FOG PXE Configuration : the hide menu option / no menu option:

        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!
