      Was just a dirty hack anyway. So I guess we are back to the inital question of why does the kernel sit and wait for so long?? Right now I can only think of turning on kernel debugging to see where it takes so long. Open /var/www/fog/lib/fog/BootMenu.class.php, jump to line 435:
      [CODE]…
      $kernelArgsArray = array(
      “mac=$mac”,
      “ftp=$ftp”,
      “storage=$storage”,
      “storageip=$storageip”,
      “web=$this->web”,
      “osid=$osid”,
      “loglevel=4”,
      “consoleblank=0”,
      “irqpoll”,
      …[/CODE]
      Change ‘loglevel=7’ and add another line just after that called ‘debug’…
      [CODE]…
      “loglevel=7”,
      “debug”,
      …[/CODE]
      Schedule a task for the client and see the kernel messages scrolling past. Probably best to take a video or picture so you can check later on.

      Web GUI issue? Please check apache error (debian/ubuntu: /var/log/apache2/error.log, centos/fedora/rhel: /var/log/httpd/error_log) and php-fpm log (/var/log/php*-fpm.log)

        On the DG41RQ about 10 seconds in it hangs at the message “Switched to clocksource tsc” Right before that there are several lines about the mouse and keyboard. At 60 seconds I get:
        [code]"r8169 0000:03:00.0 eth0: unable to load firmware patch rtl_nic/rt18168d-1.fw (-12)
        r8169 0000:03:00.0 eth0: link down
        r8169 0000:03:00.0 eth0: link down[/code]
        and then 3 second later:
        [code]
        r8169 0000:03:00.0 eth0: link up
        Sending DHCP requests .
        [/code]
        and the it starts the imaging process.

        I’ll try it on the H81M-A and report back.

          Same messages at the same time for the H81M-A.

            YAY!

            Information. It is somewhat related to the nic, but not in the lack of ability, but rather a missing firmware.

              I mean no harm with that, I just need to add the file to the compiler.

              Hopefully doing that will fix the slow issue you’re seeing.

                That would be great! No harm in leaving the debugging on in the mean time is there?

                  Probably not… might make you dizzy seeing all that code fly by though… and throwing up on a computer wouldn’t be good.
                  😉

                    Sure but how many firmware files do we add to the initrd? Most are for WLAN adapters which we don’t use with FOG (so far). But there are also a couple for normal ethernet adapters…

                      It’s not in the init. I build them directly in the kernel.

                        Not much difference. Makes the kernel bigger and bigger. But probably better then having a lot of people waiting for a minute for no reason… 😉

                          Personally, I want a kernel that will work with EVERYTHING.

                          UEFI & BIOS mixed environments scares the crap out of me, honestly.

                            If you’re running SVN, the kernel’s are now updated on the Sourceforge sites. All you’ll need to do is re-run the installer. The 3.19.1 kernel has been updated. Next up is to build the 3.19.2 drivers.
