Negative, but the original thread posts have been updated.I suggest reading the whole thread first though. But the instructions are still good.

[quote=āBjarke, post: 10818, member: 3320ā]Hi all
First off thanks for a greate guide
I just wantede to let you know that this guide works without issues on latest version of SAD2 (v120520)wizard210 it sounds like you have been messing around with eighter the bin folder inside drivers or you made changes to the script so it is now unable to find the bin folder.
Regards

I want to use the newest script too, which is in my case 121126, but it is ācompletelyā rewritten.Does somebody still have version 120520 (because it is down)?
Or has somebody an idea where to insert the code in 121126?If this could be solved, others would be helped who whant to use an updatet version.
For now i use the original version, which can still be downloaded here: [url]http://dropcanvas.com/k9iq0[/url]
Nice work. Thanks.

hi Andyroo54
when i boot a vm , the Fog Computer Cloning Solution ( to peform Registration and Inventory) just appears and booting will be directed to HDD. i test on a physical machine booting nic on FOG and it was fine.
Note that my Fog Server is also a VM (from Vsphere).
I created also vmware_user with no password but still the same.
What could be the solution?

thanks

this was a very good tutorialā¦ thanks for the Authorā¦
My only concern now is that even if i change the hostname, restarted the machine and after logging in back it returns to the original hostnameā¦ what to do?

you need to change hostname via FOG web gui or disable fog renaming via FOG web ui -
i seeā¦ so this windows i just deployed cannot be renamed at all?
and will redploy an image after disabling fog renamingā¦
-
windows should be picking up the name from its hostname as defined in FOG. (if you have the feature enabled)
if you want to change the name, change it in FOG and the pc will auto change its name.
- or you can disable this auto-naming feature, and login to the pc and change it that way. without it reverting back to what it is named in FOG

I found a copy of SAD2-120520 on my computer. It can be downloaded from here - [url]https://www.box.com/s/kto1xfr0ktyr0s4l334z[/url]

hi,
i took 10-15minutes to got away from this prompt (see attached file) what could be the reason?
- fogserver is a virtual machine from vpshere connected to 1gb switch port
- fog client is a phyiscal machine connected to 1gb switch port
Though my imaging is sucessful, everything is fine except that i am being stucked on that mtftp connectionā¦
Thanks

Do you have a second TFTP server on your network? Iāve never seen an MTFTP before.
-
no i dnt have secondt TFTPā¦ what could be the problem?
-
Found this solution (which is relative to what we have in office)ā¦ i will try and let you know.
-
this solution worked for me!
Have anyone of you included Gparted for FOG server? Thanks
-
I am planning on attempting this. I have never did anything like this. Do I need a dedicated server for Fog? or can I put it on our corporate server?

If your corporate server runs Ubuntu, you could install it there, but depending on what services that server provides, FOG may reduce performance of the machine during imaging operations, since the HD and NIC become so busy moving huge amounts of data.

Also, realistically, you could just install Ubuntu on an older desktop PC and use that as your FOG server. You donāt necessarily need server grade hardware.

Hello,
you have a nice tutorial hereā¦thx for that. Few thingsā¦you recommending use of fogprep, but after that you use generalize on sysprep which should by the same thing base on fog wiki([url]http://www.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/What_do_I_have_to_do_to_an_image_before_uploading%3F[/url]).
Second, I was deployed image with SAD rutine and everithing finish, but strange thing occur, after windows start, fogsystray hangs a and for example when I call itel graphic setting tool it crash. Same with windows media center for example. In image this problems not happens. Any ideas? anybody? -
I believe there is a way within the DPinstall script to create the necessary RemoveD.cmd for the cleanup.
I will try including these lines just before the final shutdown (where FOG service is restarted):
[CODE]ECHO @ECHO OFF > %SystemDrive%\Drivers\RemoveD.cmd
ECHO rd /s/q %SystemDrive%\D >> %SystemDrive%\Drivers\RemoveD.cmd
ECHO DEL /F /S /Q /A ā%SystemDrive%\Drivers\SAD2-111118ā >> %SystemDrive%\Drivers\RemoveD.cmd
ECHO rd /s/q %SystemDrive%\Drivers\SAD2-111118 >> %SystemDrive%\Drivers\RemoveD.cmd
ECHO EXIT >> %SystemDrive%\Drivers\RemoveD.cmd[/CODE]I changed
to [FONT=Consolas]%SystemDrive% to make it more compatible with different boot configurations. [/FONT]
