As any of you come across this before and found a fix

Thanks

Just a guess, version 1.2.0? It would be nice to actually know.

Based on the info, restart the task but make it a debug task.

Run fixparts, confirm anything it’s suggesting and write. (Usually format of fixparts /dev/sda)

Once complete, run fog and step through.

@lawrence1997 Are you unaware of how to setup a debug task?

Just like any other tasking, but with an extra step.

Go to task page, cancel the current upload task.

Go to the host you are trying to upload the image from.

Go to basic tasks.

Click on Advanced Tasks.

Look for Upload - Debug.

Click.

Confirm.

Perform tasks stated earlier.
