FOG not imaging to new HD
-
Hi All,
Looking for a little help here. I have setup a Win 7 machine. I have syspreped the device and uploaded the image. I can redeploy the image to the same HD and it will boot and partclone just fine. If I try and deploy it to a different HD (either in a different chassis or in the same one) it will PXE boot and get right to the point where the partclone will kick in it just reboots. I am running 1.2.0. I have have tried multiple machines and this is what I have figured out so far. Thoughts? Am I missing something?
-
Not without researching it.
-
do you know what commands to use for partclone?
-
I was trying to follow the directions in the debug of image download. Should I replace those commands with partclone instead?
-
Then why is it trying to image using partimage?
-
It is uploaded from 1.2.0.
-
Is the image uploaded from 1.2.0 or from 0.32?
-
I used a SLAX boot drive and formatted the HD to NTFS and still have the same result. I tried using the debug mode, but when I get to the part about using partimage it says aborted after clicking next. I am going to try and post a video of what I am seeing.

You can also use the debug mode to edit and create partitions with fdisk

Could you please try booting a live CD, create one primary partition, format it (e.g. NTFS) and then try again…
I really hope that this does not fix the problem as FOG is capable of handling empty drives but hey, weird things can happen.

Is the other disk smaller or bigger? Same model, different one? Maybe try debug download and take a (slow motion) video. Maybe we see some error messages then. Hard to figure out with little information.
Same size drive and exact same model machine, Dell Optiplex 760. I have taken a video and it doesn’t show any errors when trying to deploy. I will try the debug mode.
