Fog registration with NUC
-
Jared and I work together, same FOG machine. I have read some posts on upgrading from 0.x to 1.x will cause loss of data, is this still a risk with 1.1.2?

Loss of data?
What do you mean?

what that’s talking about is not a “risk.” It’s a change in operating procedure. Before, OS was associated with hosts. but the actual operating system resides in the image. so, that’s where that info has been put now.
you should, of course, be prepared for a catastrophic failure, as you should be at all times, and especially when performing a major upgrade. We recommend that you do a fresh install instead of an upgrade, and migrate your data over to the new server. that is because you’re much less likely to have issues that way. upgrading is, however, supported. -
Update: I have built a new UBUNTU desktop 14.04lts and have installed FOG 1.1.2 and I am to this point from the instructions on Building UNDIONLY.KPXE file (see link above) and I do not understand the “[B][FONT=sans-serif][COLOR=#000000]Remove the {}'s and only apply the file you wish to build if you want only a specific file.” from this part.[/COLOR][/FONT][/B]

why are you building unidonly.kpxe? one is included with fog, that has fog-specific embedded scripting
-
because when I went to do this, it said it did not exist.
[FONT=Consolas]cd /tftpboot
mv undionly.kpxe undionly.kpxe.ORIGINAL
ln -s undionly.kkpxe undionly.kpxe[/FONT] -
So you’re still running 0.32?
-
if you installed FOG 1.1.2, you should no longer have the problem where the undionly.kpxe, or undionly.kkpxe do NOT exist.
-
even if the files were for some reason missing, you could just download them from the sourceforge page
-
could this be a rights issue? When I use the file browser I can see the tftpboot folder, but can’t get access to it.
Tom - this was a brand new install of FOG 1.1.2 on a new Ubuntu 14.04LTS desktop. So when I did’t see the tftpboot folder, I assumed that I had to create the UNDIONLY files and stared following those directions.
-
when you ran the installer, did you run it with sudo?
-
yes, did sudo ./installfog.sh
-
What’s the contents of your /var/log/installfog.log file?
-
here is the file
[url=“/_imported_xf_attachments/1/1099_FOG LOGtext.txt?:”]FOG LOGtext.txt[/url]
-
So it looks like it never got past Mysql password setting. There’s nothing after this point which tells me 1.1.2 is not fully installed.
-
when you ran the installer, did you follow the instructions and prompts in the script?
-
Am a noob to Linux and fog but e may of had a similar experience when I did a fresh install today the first time trying to install MySQL wouldn’t it never prompted were it normally would for the root password to be set I had to rerun the installer second time it worked fine.
Ps it’s not anything to do with that he’s installed on Ubuntu 14.04 I saw a warning in the wiki that it’s too new and doesn’t work properly and was recommended in my thread on general to use 12.04.4
-
I re-ran the FOG install - here is the log file.
Still will not pxe boot a client.[url=“/_imported_xf_attachments/1/1100_FOG LOGtext2.txt?:”]FOG LOGtext2.txt[/url]
-
Is the dhcp option filename/67 pointing at undionly.kpxe or pxelinux.0?
Is the dhcp option next-server/66 pointing at the ip of your fog server?
