Can backup, but not deploy on 1 machine.... [video inc].

[quote=“Blackbook, post: 14121, member: 2681”]Just revisited this - I set up a brand new ubuntu desktop and installed nothing but Fog on it - I reformatted the problem laptop and did nothing but put 1 txt document on desktop. I also reset the toshiba bios.

To check fog was working, I took a working laptop and did a quick host, an upload, and a deploy all successfully.

I then took the problem laptop, managed to get the PXE to boot to fog menu, did a ‘quick host’ first time, completed an upload (to a new image file) first time also, went to deploy it - and it got stuck at the same place as the video. Just dispays a ‘#’ when it should go to the blue screen.

I’m about to throw it all out the window.[/quote]

we had a problem child machine we just chose an older kernel for fog and magicly it worked… Our problem child was a Brand New Dell Vostro 2420 brand new out of box one Deployed fine the other we had to change to an older kernel to get to it deploy… Same Bios versions and Ethernet Firmware versions. Identical hardware. Go figure. we stepped back all the way to the 2637 kernel. Hope that helps?
