Latest FOG 1.0.0

[quote=“Tom Elliott, post: 26866, member: 7271”]Fog does clean the drives first. But only on the download task. Creating the initial image is completely up to you. I wouldn’t have the “FOGGIEST” of idea’s on what it is you’re planning to do to actually have FOG create the image for you. I hope this makes sense.
If you’re trying to make an MBR style OS on a disk that originally in GPT format, you have to make sure all is well.
Converting from GPT to MBR has some quirks. Converting from MBR to GPT is fairly easy with some minor modifications. FOG wouldn’t have any interaction in this process.
The reason why this is all important to know is because, if GPT is “present” on the Disk, FOG 1.0.0 will create a backup of the GPT partitioning table. GPT is present in many cases if you don’t properly wipe the drive and partitioning tables prior, especially if your OS came preinstalled with UEFI enabled on the system.[/quote]
I redid the test in a virtual machine. Still not working. The same result. Please check the pictures. I can’t figure what am I doing wrong…

[quote=“falko, post: 26949, member: 48”]you mean adding an ISO to the Boot menu?[/quote]
Yes, because I don’t understand how to do that with the new PXE -
Thanks!!!

this is a good place to start for your options with the Advanced Boot menu options

did the install to 1.0.0 now when I try to install/update the database schema, i got you my web gui url and it just says unable to connect to database.
-
did you update your password in fog/commons/config.php after the install?
-
I did not…am I suppose to update it to the username and password it gave me as default user or as my password?
-
nevermind, I got it. My password was missing from database_password. Thanks for letting me know where to look though. Still learning as I go…
-
So… are we still using svn for udpates?
-
you can, if you want to be on “the bleeding” edge. Right now it’s the exact same as the release.
-
Ok. I like the bleeding edge!
I was just unsure if the “fog_0.33b” folder in subversion was going to change.
-
there was never a fog_0.33b folder. You create the name.
[code]svn co https://svn.code.sf.net/p/freeghost/code/trunk /opt/fog_0.33b[/code]If you want the name changed you would just mv the folder to the new name.
or recheckout and change the folder name:
[code]svn co https://svn.code.sf.net/p/freeghost/code/trunk /opt/fog_1.0.0[/code] -
just remember that if you use “bleeding edge” svn after this point, it may contain unstable code. tested code will be made available in numbered releases

Hello all,
I hope I am in the correct Forum for this question. I have been searching for a couple of days now.
I am sure I am doing something wrong. I am trying to add options to the iPXE Advanced menu.
I have read through [url]http://fogproject.org/forum/threads/fog-0-33b-edit-pxe-menu.10403/#post-26419[/url] and tried the examples with no success. The following is what I am currently trying.OS: Ubuntu 14.04
FOG: 1.0.0 r1678PXE Boot Menu => Advanced Configuration Options:
Imenu ADVANCED MENU[/I]
Icolour --rgb 0xff0000 0[/I]
Icpair --foreground 0 3[/I]
Iitem --gap – -------------------------------------[/I]
Iitem konbootKon-Boot[/I]
COLOR=#ff0000goto ADV-MENU[/I][/COLOR]Ichain [url]http://${fog-ip}/${fog-webroot}/service/ipxe/iamges/kon-bootCD.iso[/url][/I]
If I remove the section in red, it returns to the Main menu (boot.php).
If I browse to the advanced.php page I get the following.
[url]http://${fog-ip}/fog/service/ipxe/advanced.php[/url]
I#!ipxe[/I]
Iconsole[/I]
Iset fog-ip 10.1.10.24[/I]
Iset fog-webroot fog[/I]
Icpair --foreground 7 --background 2 2[/I]
Iconsole --picture [url]http://${fog-ip}/${fog-webroot}/service/ipxe/bg.png[/url] --left 100 --right 80[/I]
I:ADV-MENU[/I]
Imenu ADVANCED MENU[/I]
Icolour --rgb 0xff0000 0[/I]
Icpair --foreground 0 3[/I]
Iitem --gap – -------------------------------------[/I]
Iitem konbootKon-Boot[/I]
Igoto ADV-MENU[/I]Ichain [url]http://${fog-ip}/${fog-webroot}/service/ipxe/iamges/kon-bootCD.iso[/url][/I]
Here is a shot of the screen after I try to go to the Advanced Menu.

try this
[CODE]
:ADV-MENU
menu
item --gap —ADVANCED MENU—
item konboot Kon-Boot
choose --default konboot --timeout 5000 target && goto ${target}:konboot
chain http://${fog-ip}/${fog-webroot}/service/ipxe/iamges/kon-bootCD.iso||
goto ADV-MENU

Thank you for the assist, but it did not resolve my issue. With your code, when I select Advanced Menu, the screen goes blank for about 2 seconds and then back to the main menu. -

maybe try this instead
[CODE]:ADV-MENU
menu
item --gap —ADVANCED MENU—
item konboot Kon-Boot
choose --default konboot --timeout 5000 target && goto ${target}:konboot
chain http://${fog-ip}/${fog-webroot}/service/ipxe/images/kon-bootCD.iso||
goto ADV-MENU[/CODE] -
I tested your code coded and it worked after I changed this line
[CODE]item --gap —ADVANCED MENU—[/CODE]
to that
[CODE]item --gap – -ADVANCED MENU—[/CODE] -
Just tried upgrading again, this time from 0.32 to 1.01. We Get an error on Database Schema Updater. Also when we try to list all hosts or all images returns a blank page. A search for a single host or image it returns data.
