Error "driver Mdio-gpio Already Registered Aborting"
-
I have looked through the posts for the fix on this, my message is showing up when I am trying to register the Lenovo T420p. I am building the initial image for a deployment on 20 laptops but not being able to register teh laptop or create the image makes that impossible.
Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.

Search the Hosts for that mac address. I once didn’t finish a registration and the Computer name was blank and the mac address was stuck in there. I just deleted this instance and it registered correctly.
-
This was the first attempt with this machine. It never got to the point for me to enter in the Computer Name. I amnually entered the Host information from within FOG, this is the first time I have had this issue.

So I tried to deploy and it is hung as well, same machine that I manually entered
-
Any other suggestions, I trie to remove the mdio-gpio file, not present.

Try my kernel, see my signature!

I am going to do a clone on the VM in the morning and then apply your updates in the link you sent. I appreciate your help and hope this solves the problem. We went with FOG because Clonezila which is good just would not work for us and if this does not work we would need to go to Ghost. Here’s hoping.

Getting a wrong boot kernel error
-
if you get past the point of downloading the init.gz and have a problem, it’s driver related and you probably just need a kernel with compatible drivers compiled in, such as Tom’s. Make a backup of your /tftpboot/fog/kernel/bzImage file and then copy the new file your downloaded to the same folder and rename it to bzImage
Then try to register the host again.
-
OK, I’ll try that. Since I am an Ubuntu noob, where do I get Tom’s kernel to download? Also what is the best commands to download and copy it over? I inherited the FOG server and am working through it, I am learning Ubuntu, is is the server so no GUI.

When following the instructions for the download, in comes back unable to resolve host mastacontrola.com. I am connected to the internet, it is not resolving the address and was not able to ping without getting error not being able to resolve.
Where else can I d/l your kernel?
-
mastacontrola.com is up and running. Maybe your DNS provider is blocking this address?
I assure you it is up and running.
At any rate, you can download if from sourceforge site now.

I just checked the download links and they work fine for me.

I’m getting error 403 forbidden. -
Tom’s site is down right now.
You can still get the kernel from here:

was able to download and copy over, issue was with my DNS server, they were causing issues. The size difference makes me wonder in case the download needs to be decompressed it is coming up with invalid boot kernel. If I need to expand the file what is best?
-
The download does not need to be decompressed. The files are about 6 MB in size each.v
