    I would like to be able to edit a file in the uploaded image so I do not have to re-upload the image again.

    Bring out your inner FOG and let it shine.

      as far as i am aware this is not possible, looks like you will have to re-upload.

        FOG uses [URL=‘http://www.partimage.org/’]Partimage[/URL] for the actual image creation/deployment, which creates an image of the drive at the sector level, meaning there is no “filesystem” that can be modified. There was [URL=‘http://www.partimage.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=309’]talk in the Partimage forums[/URL] a while back about trying to write a block device driver that would allow you to mount your Partimage image files and modify them, but Partimage files are compressed internally (as in Partimage compresses the stream of sectors while writing the image file), so you would also have to decompress the image file before you could even mount it, at which point you’re basically deploying the image. So the only real option is to deploy the image to a computer, make whatever changes and then upload the image again.
