Dell Optiplex 960 Image Deploy Issue
-
I am new to Linux and FOG. I have a FOG server running as a DHCP Server installed on Ubuntu 10.4. which is own its own isolated network. I am able to upload an image from a Dell Optiplex 960 which came with ATI Radeon Graphic card if and only if i remove them and use the on board image. However when try and deploy the image i get the following error.
PXE-EC8 !PXE structure was not found in UNDI driver code segment.
PXE-M0F: Exiting Intel Boot Agent.I attempted to fix the Graphics card issue by using follow links that work on Optiplex 790’s and 390’s but they didn’t work.

I had success adding the ‘nomodeset’ option to the kernel arguments for some Optiplex 980s I was trying to image. They were giving me the “snow” screen. They had ATI Raedons in them.

I’m not sure about this one. Sound like it may be kernel related.

I do get the “Snow” Screen when i have the graphic cards in them, so i can try and add the ‘nomodeset’ However i am extremely new to Linux and FOG, do you know of any documentation on how to do that or is a rather simple process?
-
Under ‘Host Management’, select a computer. In the box next to ‘Host Kernel Arguments’ enter ‘nomodeset’. Then click ‘Update’.

IST,
I had the same problem with all my Dell systems that had a ATI Card installed.Check out this thread.
