Latest FOG 0.33b
-
As I’m relatively new and mainly been working on the GUI, I’ll try seeing if I can update my init.gz file to test around with EFI a little bit. The kernel’s that I’ve been building have already included support for EFI, so it may just be a matter of … finally … switching to partclone to get true UEFI support imaging. Again, I’m new so it may not work right away and may take a little bit more time, but I will try and keep trying until I get it for you all. I will, as per usual, request others to test out as well as all I’ve got is a VM that I can tell to use EFI for bootup.

Hey Tom
That would be awesome… All new devices are being churned out with UEIF bios, and when they start becoming cheaper, then the ability to boot in non UEfi mode will diminish…
Does this also mean that you would not be able to pxe boot anymore?
-
I don’t think so. PXE in it’s native form doesn’t do anything bios related, however, there are PXE based EFI configurations out there from some of the research I’ve looked into.

This seems very viable…no??
-
r928 out. Contains Plugins again. Sorry I didn’t know they even existed.
-
Hostname changer doesn’t seem to be working in 33b.
Great work so far. things are looking great.
While your doing reconfiguration… could you try to add compression choices to the GUI?
-
I don’t know that compression choices could be set from GUI. The init.gz file performs the compression using pigz, but that doesn’t mean it couldn’t be using gzip or bzip compression, but I think that would be better suited on the client level from the fog script.
-
Also, how is it that you know hostnamechanger isn’t working? It isn’t changing the hostname after image upload? it isn’t joining active directory?
What exactly is letting you know hostname changer isn’t working?
-
Error in the log which got overwritten during troubleshooting, and none of the 4 VMs I was using would change their hostnames.
If nobody else is experiencing the issue, then maybe it’s just a one off. I was only able to run a few tests.
I can try to replicate it in a couple of days if needed. I have 0.33b saved in a snapshot.
-
Also, I’ve just reverted to fog 0.32 and the exact same VM booted and changed hostname as expected without issue.
-
As far as I can tell, the GUI side of this is working properly, but the client side may be having issues. I’ll test for sure, but I’m not certain how to rebuild the client.
-
There were a couple of issues and I’ve, seemingly, fixed them. Hope this helps you out.
Please redownload and test with r930
HostManager.class.php which does the update/insert for the hostname still was referencing hostOS which doesn’t exist.
-
r932 out.
With it comes Export Hosts, Fixes/Improvements to Printer Management, SnapinManagement, GroupManager.
It also display’s a primary group now on the hosts.
-
r933 is out.
It has the export.php file for the exporting of stuff. Just forewarning, I’ve got the base components of configuration export in place as well. To view it, goto:
[url]http://<fogIP>/fog/management/index.php?node=about&sub=config[/url]
It just has export so far and not quite a pretty thing, but please view and suggest.
-
r934 is out.
Import and Export is now there under FOG Configuration.
Hopefully it’s a start.
-
r935 is out.
I know it’s the little things I keep missing. It actually adds the menu option in FOG Configuration called Configuration save.
Also, with this, the oui.txt file is now redownloaded before updating the mac list. Hopefully to keep things up to date with new hardware.

Nice Tom, will need to update my vm and test. Can see you have been busy, think I’m on r923
-
I will give it a test
Great Work tom. -
Damn not only do we get updates almost daily, we can see you obviously spend a lot of time working on this, and we appreciate it!
Keep up the good Work Tom, time to update my VM as well

All,
r939 is out. With it everything that I accidentally broke from r927~ ish is now fixed. I moved the mainmenu.include.php file and forgot to add it to the commits. Again, I’m still getting used to svn so I’m very sorry. It’s all there now. It got moved from:
fog/management/includes/mainmenu.include.php to commons/mainmenu.php
