    Hello,

    My Host is a Windows 10 PC where I am running Hyper-V. Ihave installed Debian 10 and then in debian the fog.
    I have an old Test PC as an client(no uefi).
    First i triend to test if the fog ipxe is runnung. That works. my PC shows on network boot the Menun and preinstalled tools like memdisk are working fine.
    Then i tried to make a Win10 running. And there starts the odyssey.
    I have used this tutorial https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/10944/using-fog-to-pxe-boot-into-your-favorite-installer-images/6 and also https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/10944/using-fog-to-pxe-boot-into-your-favorite-installer-images/10 for UEFI Clients.
    When i start with my non uefi client the non uefi Win 10 I get an error.

    My DNS is the router (Zyxel USG60W).

    that is my menu entry in fog :

      Your NFS line in the parameters has a $ symbol, please remove this.

      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)

          If you look at the tutorial this is the parameters section

          initrd nfs://${fog-ip}:/images/os/mswindows/7Pro-x64/WinPE_amd64.iso
          chain memdisk iso raw
          boot || goto MENU
          

          The iPXE variable ${fog-ip} will be dynamically replaced with the IP address of your fog server. So there is no need to modify the parameters section, just paste it in.

          Also understand this menu item will only work for bios based computers. I need to write a new tutorial for uefi based computers. This is because the memdisk utility is bios only.

              Hello,

              I have now configured the samba and now is the setup starting.
              But it takes nearly 8 minutes until the setup prompt is shown.

              Because I am not a linux expert there can be one or two little mistakes. I trie to discribe my samba setup.

              Debian 10

              first installed the samba

              sudo apt-get install samba -y
              

              then save the config

              sudo mv /etc/samba/smb.conf /etc/samba/smb.orig
              

              create a new config

              sudo gedit /etc/samba/smb.conf
              

              (yes I need a little bit gui support)

              then I created a smbuser and gave him a password

              sudo useradd -s /bin/false smbuser
              sudo smbpasswd -a smbuser
              

              my smb.conf file

              [global]
              workgroup = smb
              security = user
              map to guest = never
              
              [homes]
              comment = Home Directories
              browsable = no
              read only = no
              create mode = 0750
              
              [Windows10]
              valid users = smbuser
              #Wir beschränken den Zugriff auf den User ''smbuser''
              #valid users = @smbusers
              #Alternativ kann auch auf eine Benutzergruppe eingeschränkt werden
              path = /images/os/mswindows/10Pro-x64/
              public = no
              writable = yes
              comment = Windows 10 Setup-Ordner
              printable = no
              guest ok = no
              create mask = 0600
              directory mask = 0700
              

              then I assigned the smbuser to my directory and gave him rights

              sudo chown -R smbuser:smbuser /images/os/mswindows/10Pro-x64/
              sudo chmod 700 /images/os/mswindows/10Pro-x64/
              

              and at least I restarted the smb

              sudo systemctl restart smbd.service
              

              I customized the startnet.cmd(WinPE) for my smbuser and thats it.

              I have run a test installation on my old client and it completed successfully.
              But the start of my setup takes realy long…

              Did anybody see a mistake or has a optimization for me?

              (I found the discription for the samba in the german Thomas-Krenn-Wiki: https://www.thomas-krenn.com/de/wiki/Einfache_Samba_Freigabe_unter_Debian and https://www.thomas-krenn.com/de/wiki/Samba_Freigabe_mit_Authentifizierung )
