Disk read error on dell 7010
-
Is it possible the drive is just bad?

Thanks Tom, no it is good it was my golden pc, I should have swapped out hd for test but have used fog before with no issues so I deployed to My golden pc! I plan to start from scratch tomorrow morning and try again. I have a theory now, it was originally a Dell imaged pc and I just used that, it may have corrupt the mbr. If it fails on a new install of 7 with all my softs, I’ll post back my outcome, any other comments welcome to my task, I need two images a desktop and 3 or 4 different Dell laptop models, since Dell only keeps a model for about 18 months!
Dell desktops 7010 and then lats models 6430,7440, and now a 5440 I think is the newest model. Thanks in advance for any advice. -
So, is this failing before the image push completes, or upon reboot after imaging?
-
I just ran into the same problem with an OEM formatted drive, I did a clean install and everything worked fine going forward.
Let us know if you still have trouble after the clean install Dusty.

Bigman, it all went well and deployed image, took about 25 mins, on reboot I got the disk read error, I used the wipe func in fog last night and have started a reload with oem disk but only one partition.
Travis, thanks! I will post back the out come.
-
FYI: All went well after a clean install of win 7. was the oem imagining from dell that was making issues. thanks for all that gave advice.

Dusty, open a terminal and type in ps -ef|grep tftp
Do you see a line similar to this one?
root 1472 1 0 Mar13 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/in.tftpd --listen --user root --address 0.0.0.0:69 -s /tftpboot
if not you need to start the service using
/etc/init.d/tftpd-hpa start

Thanks Travis!

That line shown is the ps -ef command you just ran, it appears tftpd is not running.
Did you try the tftpd-hpa start command i posted above? If so run ps -ef|grep tftp again and it should find two lines this time. If not it should list an error when you run the tftpd-hpa start command.
