ability to load a menu item on a specific machine as an immediate task
-
@ksrvpvl As soon as the machine is registered in the FOG web UI a task can be scheduled. This would send WOL packets to wake up the machine and let it PXE boot straight into the scheduled task.

the keyword is custom tasktype, we have a plugin can “force” the ipxe to auto boot custom item -

@baovipboy156 I don’t understand where is this plugin? is there documentation?
There is documentation! https://docs.fogproject.org/en/latest/tasks
The documentation is still under construction a bit, but task info can be found there -

@ksrvpvl Ok, I think I’m getting what you’re saying. I misunderstood earlier.
Is your custom menu option to boot to winPE working? Or are you asking for help with that part too? There is some very basic guidelines on creating a winpe boot option here https://docs.fogproject.org/en/latest/ipxe
The plugin system needs to be enabled in the fog settings, then you should see a plugin menu where you can activate and then install the tasktypeedit plugin. Some basic plugin system info is here https://docs.fogproject.org/en/latest/plugins but it looks like you got past that bit now.
I also found this post https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/10274/creating-task-with-tasktypemanagement?lang=en-US&page=1 where someone was doing the same thing. Perhaps it may offer some help.
