[quote=“wolfemi, post: 23540, member: 5740”]I was doing some more testing on snapins this AM and noticed a few things.
I am still having an issue with group deploy of all snapins. It states Snapins Are already deployed to this host. If I deploy the snapin another way successfully then try it again it creates the task.[/quote]
I think this is sort of expected. The checks on the snapin/task generation basically check if a job is already created with the particular task (or job) and will not “re-deploy” until those previous snapins complete. Why you’re able to generate successfully, and then create the task is a little odd. Do you mean they deploy and complete, or you just create the task, then go to group and create?
[quote=“wolfemi, post: 23540, member: 5740”]
I tried to do a quick deploy of snapins to a group and it didn’t create the snapin task. The single snapin didn’t have an option to select which one.[/quote]
I can quick deploy the snapins to a group, but I don’t remember if I added the “checking” needed to send the snapins through this method. It’s not high priority as I finally got a Windows 8 system to play with. This is a relatively easy thing to “fix”/implement, just didn’t get to it yet.
[quote=“wolfemi, post: 23540, member: 5740”]
A quick deploy of all snapins for a host worked fine, but the quick deploy of single snapin did all snapins.
[/quote] See one above. I never implemented it, yet, on the task management page as I basically recreated the deploy scripts.
[quote=“wolfemi, post: 23540, member: 5740”]
I tried group single deploy and it had the drop down which successfully worked.[/quote] Expected!
[quote=“wolfemi, post: 23540, member: 5740”]
I cancelled single deploy and all deploy active task for both host and group deploy which also removed the snapin task. It wasn’t working before. Also was able to cancel a single snapin from a deploy all snapins with out issue.[/quote]
Expected.Thank you!

r1258 and 1259 released.
1258 adds fixparts to init.gz for testing with Windows 8 issues I saw earlier today. Add’s advanced options back to PXE Configuration part. Please bare in mind that you will have to use ipxe formatted code. (e.g. double quotes and \n at the end of the line.)
1259 just reinforces that the new init.gz gets distributed.
-
r1260 released.
Actually saves the advanced data.
-
r1261 released.
Removes obsolete imgargs command. Adds reporting of whether the host is registered or not as a gap in the menu.
-
r1262 released.
Fixes Windows 8 and below imaging issues. Yes this includes UEFI/GPT disks. You will need to disable secure boot on the drives but all seems to work. You may even (which I might fix myself) randomize the GUID of the disk to get booting to work as well. Hopefully this helps, and it’s very exciting.

Nice job Tom!
Now I just wait to hear those dreaded words “Get Windows 8 installed on all the staff and student machines!”

Lol, still refining a little bit, you know trying to get the procedure (for mps/mpa types) at least right now.
-
What has changed since version 1256, that would stop “Full Host Registration…” from running? It worked fine 2 days ago, now it’s just bypassing and trying to boot to the hard drive…
-
Did you make edits to the boot.php file? If so, check that the line has a \n at the end.
-
No. I haven’t made any changes.

I have the same issue, except that any time I choose anything from the iPXE menu, it boots to HDD regardless. I thought it was just me, so I was going to try a fresh install. I didn’t customize any of the configs, etc other than adding the MYSQL passwords to the 2 required files

Change your FOG Configuration files
FOG Configuration (?) Icon
FOG Settings
Change the areas that have fog/memtest/memtest, fog/images/init.gz, fog/kernel/bzImage to say only memtest, init.gz, bzImage respectively. -

[quote=“ArchFan, post: 23627, member: 19266”] … the 2 required files[/quote]
2?
-
I don’t know any more
I’ve since changed it to one required file.
/var/www/{fog,html/fog}/commons/config.php
The other config.php just tells the FOG<SERVICENAME> files to point to the main config.php file.

This is all i’m seeing in /var/www/fog/commons/config.php
