      This can actually be updated with the new default.ipxe script, I don’t have access to it ATM, though…

      Simply hand out that 32-bit ipxe.efi bootfile via DHCP and that should do the trick.

          No problem brother. At the very least you should be able to register them/send inventory. I hope you’re able to get them to image, though!

                SVN 2759 released.

                With this comes a slight change to how the apache web server operates.

                It will download the kernels and inits as needed rather than having them stored in the svn repo.

                What’s bound to happen, some delay (sometimes seemingly a long time) during the Setting up and starting Apache Web Server phase. This delay is the download occurring.

                What this means, for the kernel’s, it will always have the most current one on the published kernels, even if you use older SVN revisions back to 2759.

                Hopefully you all understand.

                  Sounds great, always updated and only a minor delay on boot (which doesn’t happen very often).

                  Does it download updates/new kernels at regular intervals or only on boot.

                  Possibly once a week or once a month would be good to update them and put the older ones in a backup folder for roll back if needed.

                    Ummm, What?

                    It only installs/updates kernels/inits at install, not at boot.

                    If you want a “rotation” schedule I leave that on you to create the necessary scheduled tasks.

                      Does the latest SVN work with the latest Ubuntu Server 14 ?

                              To be clear. TFTP is a bit buggy in Ubuntu 14.xx but some have corrected this by editing a start up script.

                                What Wolfbane Said!!!

                                But, Yes Fog will run on Ubuntu 14.04, 14.10 and Kubuntu 14.04, 14.10

                                We do not recommend using the latest version, stuff tends to get changed, or broken (such as moving the Apache root dir, and TFTP) If you find issues during installation, please document them and how you solve them so we can help the community.

                                I set up a 14.10 Kubuntu server this morning. The only issue I ran into is the common issue with ANY Ubuntu revision as of 12.04.4 and requiring users to specify their nameserver in resolv.conf so that you have internet connectivity.

                                  Welcome to my world, that’s where I’m at with my Asus T100TA’s.

                                  Try setting the Host Primary Disk to:

                                  /dev/mmcblk0

                                      SVN 2787 released.

                                      With this release comes some sad, but hopefully better news. The sad is that We’ve decided to remove clamav from our package sources. This is two fold, we no longer build clamav as a part of the init’s, for the simple fact init’s don’t change too often, and therefor the packages tend to be outdated, especially when there’s a new release of clamav just far too frequently. We moved the clamav and made an effort to get clamav as a static binary set. This worked, but the binaries only worked with 64 bit, and inflated the size of the installer from (before inits and kernels where installed during installer) about 70MB to a whopping 200MB. It is because of the size of this and the fact that the files are far to vast in changes consistently, that keeping clamav on the installer or integrated in the init is just too much.

                                      That all said, I am working on getting the [url]http://fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/Clamav[/url] wiki article updated with how to build and place the built binaries in the /opt/fog/clamav folder so that those of you who use clamav can still get it operational for your environments.

                                      I know some are going to love this, and others are going to hate it. This is not to make anybody’s lives rougher or anything. It’s simply a practical (I think) decision that needed to happen probably long ago.

                                        SVN 2806 released.

                                        With this release comes FOG Snapin Replicator within the log viewer options as well as semi-realtime updating of these files. This means no more need to refresh to see the latest data. Also it adds the apache error/access logs right from the GUI.

                                        Hopefully this helps when trying to diagnose a problem other than if the GUI breaks itself.

                                          I agree with your removal of ClamAV. I think the FOG project’s focus should be towards the PXE and imaging side of things. Other tools should be up to each specific user to set up, especially since adding additional options to the boot menu has become so easy.

                                            SVN 2845 Released.

                                            With this comes Many changes to Log viewer. I’m sure there’s a few other things too, but this is the most significant.

                                            LOG Viewer is a sort of realtime viewer (now) of your Logs. Multicast, Scheduler, Snapin Replicator, Image Replicator, Apache Error, and Apache Access logs. It updates everything every 10 seconds. The addition to this, now, is that it checks on all the master nodes, rather than the local GUI system. This means you can monitor what’s happening on remote nodes with out having to ssh or be at that node. There’s a Continue/Pause button in place which pauses the updating of the logs so you can copy and paste. Of course, any selection you make to the number of lines or which log you’re viewing, will re-enable the updating of the relevant log you’re looking at, so the pause button updates accordingly.

                                            The Logs are separated with a simple disabled selector in the log file drop down that tells you which node in the format ------- <nodename> -------.

                                            Also, the logs are hookable now, and you can add in your own logs as needed. To help you all out, I’ve created a log viewer hook with an example. The example I have is specific to the system log and checks for both ubuntu or redhat style messages. The file is commented at the top to help you understand what kind of permissions the file and folders will likely need.

                                            While this doesn’t seem exciting, and to me it wasn’t that difficult of a change to add, I believe it’s uses are under-evaluated. Especially when it comes to us trying to help others on the forums.

                                            With that all said, I wish all of you guys a Happy Holidays. I’d say the old “Merry Christmas” but seeing as I know not everybody celebrates this holiday, I’ll take the politically correct approach.
