Dell Latitude E7240 imaging problem
-
Hi Tom,
I’m getting the same NIC error on a Dell Latitude E5440 so I tried your kernel from [URL=‘https://mastacontrola.com/fogboot/kernel/bzImage’][I][SIZE=12px]https://mastacontrola.com/fogboot/kernel/bzImage[/SIZE][/I][/URL] but unfortunately it just causes a kernel panic before booting fully. Any suggestions?
Thanks,

Replace the bzImage part of the link with bzImage32, then copy that file as bzImage on your fog server.
-
It’s in 640x480 but that has worked a treat Tom, thank you very much! Is this because there is a 64bit driver in there somewhere that is incompatible? Also, how often do you release your own new kernels?
Cheers,
Eoin. -
No, it’s because in 0.33 we’ve moved to a pure 64 bit system. The bzImage file on my site is 64 bit, while your init.gz/xz file is 32 bit only.
-
So if I moved to 0.33 I could use that first bzImage?
Thanks,
Eoin. -
Yes, unless you wanted to use 32 bit stuff, in which case you would use the init_32.xz with the bzImage32.

Great, thanks very much for all the help - really appreciate it as I am at a customer site today and on a deadline!

Tom, thanks very much for the updated kernel. I’m a new user (about 2 months) and we are now receiving shipments of Dell E7240’s so this was very timely help. Awesome! I downloaded fog 0.33b and will be testing that soon. I’d been looking at fog for a long time and finally got approval when updating Ghost’s WinPE image for new nics became too troublesome. Great work to all involved in the project. Thanks again!

Tom,
We’re running into this same issue with some Latitude E7240 we have. I went to download your all net kernel from the link above and am getting a 403 Forbidden error. Is there a new location to download the kernel? or can someone that’s using it hook me up with a copy?Thanks for the Help!

You can download the kernel from here too
