      @robertkwild Adding such a kernel parameter is better done per host. Check the host’s settings in the web UI and use the field called “Host Kernel Arguments”.

      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)

        @Sebastian-Roth thanks, do you think i could add it in the parameters ie -

        kernel http://172.17.1.1/listing/centos7_1804/iso/images/pxeboot/vmlinuz ks=http://172.17.1.1/listing/centos7_1804/ks2.cfg
        initrd http://172.17.1.1/listing/centos7_1804/iso/images/pxeboot/initrd.img
        modprobe.blacklist=bochs_drm
        boot || goto MENU

          @robertkwild Add, now I see what you mean. Then use:

          kernel http://172.17.1.1/listing/centos7_1804/iso/images/pxeboot/vmlinuz modprobe.blacklist=bochs_drm ks=http://172.17.1.1/listing/centos7_1804/ks2.cfg
          initrd http://172.17.1.1/listing/centos7_1804/iso/images/pxeboot/initrd.img
          boot || goto MENU
          

          That should do what you want (untested).

          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)

              A lot has changed since then. We now use “Parameters” instead of “Boot options”.

              My questions is, is it possible to add (or maybe in a future update) commands to the “boot options” that run AFTER pxe finishes loading the iso/files?

              The goal is, instead of editing the ISO (everytime I use DISM to edit wimboot, remake the ISO using imgburn it get sanboot errors, but the original unaltered ISO works fine), I could just run 3 simple commands (.bat script) via FOG (boot options?) that run after it boots. For instance, adding the below to be ran after a WinPE iso loads and you get to a desktop:

              net use Z: yada yada; Explorer Z:\test.iso;“X:\StartScript.exe”

                @dvorak You’d need it in the ISO.

                PXE is before the system is loaded, and as such cannot trigger actions at the HDD level beyond loading a Disk, Boot Rom, or whatever.

                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.
