Windows 10 Upload image troubleshooting
-
I am using the FOG Trunk version 7847. My image settings are Windows 10 for the Operating System and Mutli Part-Single Disk (not resizable) for the Image type. I am getting stuck at the <Processing Hard Disk: /dev/sda> screen during image upload… I have not successfully uploaded a Windows 10 image. I used the Microsoft Media Creation Tool to create USB Media to install Windows 10, ran Audit Mode and customized my image the ran sysprep w/ answer file.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, I need to image 90 computers for the school district I work for and was wanting to upgrade to Windows 10.
Regards, Luke

Even though it states it, I can not find a partclone.log file in /var/log…
This is only on the client - temporary. As soon as you reboot after the error the log is gone. But there won’t be any valuable information other than what you have in the picture already!
I am getting this same problem/error on 3 different computers all with 80 GB hard drives.
Well then I guess your image is corrupted as I see this is failing on restore. Try uploading the image again! Maybe your FOG server disk is full? What do you get from
df -hon the FOG server? -
@Bad-Day Try to restore the image to another computer.

Even though it states it, I can not find a partclone.log file in /var/log… I am getting this same problem/error on 3 different computers all with 80 GB hard drives. One of the computers is the same computer I used to create the image and upload, just put a different hard drive in it to try imaging to it. I am confused, and appreciate the help… Luke

It could also be Memory on the client. THe file get’s decompressed into a fifo item. This fifo is straight up memory space. If the information is coming from an invalid/corrupt portion of memory, this could occur as well. (Hence the threads suddenly aborting.)
-
@Bad-Day Can you post /var/log/partclone.log here?
From what I can tell of what this seems to say so far though, it seems to point to either the image or the source/target HDD having issues (most likely broken sectors?)
-
@Quazz gets to 44.98 and crashes to that screen. I am using 80 GB HDs, different brands. The computer I prepared the image and uploaded was also a 80 GB… Any ideas, Luke
-
@Bad-Day Does the top bar reach the end?
The percentage is about total progress, but a bunch of it will simply be empty space which takes virtually no time to complete, so it’s possible it’s jumping from 44% to 100%.
If that is not the case then I’m guessing you imaged a larger drive than the one you’re trying to deploy to.
-
Any idea what this error is when trying to image a computer? I have tried imaging multiple computer, it get to 444 percent then doesn’t complete. When the computer restarts it says winload.exe is missing.Any help would be greatly appreciated. Luke

@Bad-Day Yes lol. Run fixparts prior to uploading.
Alternatively, zero-out the drive with FOG’s normal-wipe task, or use DBAN, then build your image.
The problem happens because Windows Setup sucks at going from GPT to MBR. It doesn’t do it cleanly.
-
You two are geniuses! When I grow up I what to be just like you guys. Fixpart found some left over GPT crap and deleted it, and now it is uploading the image. Can you tell me what I should have done in the first place so this wouldn’t have happened?
Thanks, Luke

@Bad-Day Going off of what Tom said, set the upload task as debug, do this on the confirmation page.
Then at the shell prompt, issue the command
fixparts /dev/sdaand follow onscreen instructions. When that’s done, typefogand then [Enter] through all the phases. -
Thanks for the your reply, If I go to Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Computer Management, and select Disk Management, right-click on Disk 0 and select Properties. Select the Volumes tab. The Partition style is Master Boot Record (MBR).
Which partition type do I want? Thanks, Luke
-
My guess, you changed partition layout from GPT to MBR.
