        My only regret is that I can only give a post one ‘like’.

            Could someone do an entry for GParted? The [URL=‘http://www.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php?title=Include_GParted’]Include Gparted[/URL] wiki page is out of date now and I can’t get the ISO to boot properly using the methods above.
            I get as far as the GParted grub menu but once I try to boot to gparted, I get pages of
            [CODE]modprobe: module unknown not found in modules.dep[/CODE]
            followed by a blackscreen.

            iPXE menu entry below
            [CODE]:gparted
            initrd http://${fog-ip}/ISO/gparted-live-0.18.0-2-i486.iso
            chain memdisk iso raw ||
            goto MENU[/CODE]

            I found this which appears to be the same issue (a memdisk issue) but I am not sure how to implement the fix.

              UPDATE; I got it working.
              I copied vmlinuz, initrd.img and filesystem.squashfs from gparted into /var/www/fog/gparted/
              and then updated my iPXE menu as follows:

              kernel http://${fog-ip}/fog/gparted/vmlinuz
              initrd http://${fog-ip}/fog/gparted/initrd.img
              imgargs vmlinuz boot=live config union=aufs noswap noprompt vga=788 fetch=http://${fog-ip}/fog/gparted/filesystem.squashfs
              boot[/CODE]

              All tested and working now.

                          The client doesn’t understand paths on the fog server, only http paths.

                          :WIN7PE64BIT
                          initrd var/www/fog/Win7AIO/WindowsAIO.iso
                          chain memdisk iso raw ||
                          goto MENU

                          Needs to be

                          :WIN7PE64BIT
                          initrd [URL=‘http://$%7Bfog-ip%7D/$%7Bfog-webroot%7D/service/ipxe/boot.php?mac=$%7Bnet0/mac%7D’]http://${fog-ip}/${fog-webroot}[/URL]/Win7AIO/WindowsAIO.iso
                          chain memdisk iso raw ||
                          goto MENU

                          OR

                          :WIN7PE64BIT
                          initrd [URL=‘http://$%7Bfog-ip%7D/$%7Bfog-webroot%7D/service/ipxe/boot.php?mac=$%7Bnet0/mac%7D’]http://${fog-ip}/fog[/URL]/Win7AIO/WindowsAIO.iso
                          chain memdisk iso raw ||
                          goto MENU

                          Both should tell the client to look in the same place, although the first form is preferable.

                          If this fails check your apache log, it will tell you where i is looking for the iso.

                              The log location is os dependent,

                              Debian based Location (normally)
                              /var/log/apache2
                              Redhat based Location (normally)
                              /var/log/httpd

                              there are 2 logs, access.log and error.log.

                              The messages you need will probably be in the access log, search for WindowsAIO.iso starting at the end, you should see a status 404, which says not found
                              You can test by typing the following in to your browser

                              [URL=‘http://$%7Bfog-ip%7D/$%7Bfog-webroot%7D/service/ipxe/boot.php?mac=$%7Bnet0/mac%7D’]http://<fog_ip_address>/fog[/URL]/Win7AIO/WindowsAIO.iso
                              replacing <fog_ip_address> with your fog server ip.

                              eg
                              [URL=‘http://$%7Bfog-ip%7D/$%7Bfog-webroot%7D/service/ipxe/boot.php?mac=$%7Bnet0/mac%7D’]http://192.168.3.11/fog[/URL]/Win7AIO/WindowsAIO.iso

                                my fog ip is 192.168.2.100

                                is this correct? [URL=‘http://%24%7Bfog-ip%7D/$%7Bfog-webroot%7D/service/ipxe/boot.php?mac=$%7Bnet0/mac%7D’]http://${fog-ip}/${fog-webroot}[/URL]/Win7AIO/WindowsAIO.iso

                                or [URL=‘http://%24%7Bfog-ip%7D/$%7Bfog-webroot%7D/service/ipxe/boot.php?mac=$%7Bnet0/mac%7D’]http://${192.168.2.100}/${fog-webroot}[/URL]/Win7AIO/WindowsAIO.iso

                                  the first of those two is correct, assuming that you have that file located in /var/www/fog/Win7AIO/WindowsAIO.iso

                                          and if the file is at /var/www/fog/ISO the fog search @ /var/www/ISO
