Not deploying after reboot

[Jaymes Driver]

Is your BIOS by chance set to fast boot?

And not to beat a dead horse, but is there a “boot menu” you can call by pressing F11 or F12 during boot? If selecting this while a task is active for the machine does it display the DHCP information like it is looking to pxe boot and just skip over it?

it sounds like your boot order isn’t set up correctly.
also, try going to [url]http://<address[/url] of fog server>/fog/service/ipxe/boot.php?mac=<mac address of computer>&arch=x86_64
and let us know what you see

This is what I see:

I have it currently set to boot straight to the LAN, so I don’t need to press f12 each time I need to test it. It does display the DHCP info for about a tenth of a second before launching straight to the FOG menu. That doesn’t seem to be the problem I am having.

[quote=“Wolfbane8653, post: 33650, member: 3362”]try a:
[CODE]#mysql -u root

mysal> select * from hosts where hostid=0;
[/CODE]

Please post the results.[/quote]

Entering this information into the terminal gives me this: ERROR 1046 (3D000): No database selected

Try:
[code]mysql -u root fog
select * from hosts where hostID=‘0’;
[/code]

Returns: Empty set (0.00sec)

Still experiencing this problem - any new insights?

[Junkhacker]

i see a reference to kernel bzimage.64 in your boot.php output, does does this file exist with this exact name, in the fog/service/ipxe directory of the web server? what have you done to update or modify the kernel being used?

[Ron L]

The bzimage.64 kernel is located in fog/service/ipxe, and the fog options under confirm TFTP options confirm that it’s in use. I haven’t modified it.

[Tom Elliott]

is the options set to bzImage.64 or bzImage?

[Ron L]

It was set to bzimage.64. I just now set it to /var/www/fog/service/ipxe/bzimage.64 to see if anything would change, but there hasn’t been any change.

[Tom Elliott]

Change the kernel back to just plain jane bzImage.64.

As you’re not deploying to the point where it even downloads that, my suspicion is in the boot parameters.

To test this is going to be difficult and I may just request a remote session if at all possible where I can connect and tweak a few file on your fog server.
