No network interface found..Lenovo ThinkCentre M70s
-
Hi I am unable to preform full host registration & inventory in a new Lenovo ThinkCentre. I am getting the following error. Unable to locate IOAPIC for GSI -1… no network interface found, your kernel is most probably missing the correct driver!
When I am working on a dell desktop or laptop, it’s working correctly where I’m able to capture and deploy images. However for Lenovo ThinkCentre I’m getting this error.
Any suggestions on why I am getting this?

@monsterkaos Please update the FOS linux kernel. FOG Web UI -> FOG Configuration -> Kernel update. Update to the 5.15.x branch, latest version for both x64 and x32 systems.
If that doesn’t work then we can debug more.

@george1421 thank you! I was able to manually update the kernel and resolved my issue.

Hi there.
Is there a way to manually update the kernel if the FOG server is on a standalone network with no internet access?
-
@goll420 yes there is
Official FOG kernel and inits (FOS) are on github:
https://github.com/FOGProject/fos/releasesDownload bzImage and bzImage32 to a usb drive and then take them to the FOG server. Rename the files in /var/www/html/fog/service/ipxe directory to .old and then copy these new files over. You can confirm the version of the kernel files by issuing this command from the fog server linux console
file /var/www/html/fog/service/ipxe/bzImageit will tell you the kernel version in the text. Make sure you pay attention to case, because it is important with linux. -
@george1421 Fabulous, thanks so much, George.
