<p dir="auto">In my last FOG setup in .32, I had the menu background changed, removed the descriptions of the functions, and changed the wording for some of the functions themselves through an easily edited text file. If I recall, the file was called default.something and was located somewhere inside the pxelinux folder.</p>
<p dir="auto">Now, with the new FOG 1.0.1 moving things around, I’m a bit lost. I found where the background goes after a bit of digging, but I’m wondering where I go to change the font color, highlight color, edit the text, etc. I know about the webUI PXE menu edit field, but this just adds extra text to the bottom… not what I’m looking to do right now.</p>
<p dir="auto">Any help is appreciated!</p>

<p dir="auto">If you really want to edit the menu, there’s no major issue, and it is (more or less) still editing one simple text file.</p>
<p dir="auto">The file is now located in:<br />
/var/www/{FOGWEBDIR}/lib/fog/BootMenu.class.php</p>
<p dir="auto">Just be cognizant of what you’re editing. iPXE is a bit finicky about syntax. If you’re dealing with gap’s and have dashes in them, you need to have two prepending dashes: (example below)<br />
[code]item --gap – ---------------------------[/code]</p>
<p dir="auto">You’ll break ipxe if you have:<br />
[code]item --gap ---------------------------[/code]</p>
<p dir="auto">Here’s ipxe’s scripting documentation:<br />
[url]<a href="http://ipxe.org/scripting%5B/url%5D" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow ugc">http://ipxe.org/scripting[/url]</a></p>
<p dir="auto">Here’s ipxe’s command information:<br />

<p dir="auto">[COLOR=#000000]It’s pretty simple once you look at it, but it may take a little bit to understand how it’s being build. The old /tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/default file was useful, but it wasn’t dynamic. That’s where moving to ipxe made things so much easier. While confusing at first, it’s much simpler and, from a programmatic standpoint, nice to work with as you can add anything you need dynamically.[/COLOR]</p>

I read that exact thread right before I posted… I suppose my question was whether or not these minor changes could be done without editing PHP code (something I admit I know very little about). If it isn’t possible to just edit a line or two in a file to make these changes, I’ll just deal with it. It’s just a cosmetic thing, anyways.</p>
<p dir="auto">Thanks!</p>
