@maxiecool2 as for the search function, I’m assuming you’re on mobile, since there’s a search box when you visit the forums on desktop. You can use our search function on mobile here: https://cse.google.com/cse/publicurl?cx=013831856522586480408:mlbymhymgxs&q= , it will search both the forums and wiki.

Thanks
It took a while
I ran the installer several times
And created a package list to download
The only errors from that was for a package that didn’t exist (php-bcmath) and getting checksum files
(Debian 8 64bit default repositories)Maybe can I ask for a feature request
I was thinking of a flag for the installer to bypass the “apt-get” and other package managers
Maybe an installed packages check instead
Exit with a list of the needed packages
I don’t know how hard it is to do this
Thanks for the reply anyway

I’m pretty sure it does this already (pictured below), that list there can be copied/pasted and you can install those things at your leisure. The problem is you need the ondrej repository configured to get the latest version of the php stuff. You could probably mirror the entire PPA and just have it locally, and just configure /etc/apt/sources.list to use your local mirror. Here’s the link to the PPA that I think you need to mirror: https://launchpad.net/~ondrej/+archive/ubuntu/php

@Wayne-Workman ok this might bring a bit of confusion
I was lead to believe that ppa was specifically for ubuntu not debian itself
While ubuntu is debian based there are differences that could ruin the package or even the system -
@maxiecool2 The Ondrej ppa is built for Debian, and thus works on Ubuntu. Quote from the page:
I’m available for some freelance work related to the packaging I do in Debian[http://qa.debian.org/developer.php?login=ondrej%40debian.org&comaint=yes] (and thus in Ubuntu)
Reference: https://launchpad.net/~ondrej
And, the fog installer has been installing this package on Debian & Ubuntu for a while. At my house, I’ve setup automated testing for the installer, I test it every day against many distributions of Linux. Results can be viewed here at the moment: http://97.85.148.83:20080/fog_distro_check/reports/

You can download a functional distro with fog installed.

@Juan-Antonio ubuntu 10.04? yikes that’s old.
-
@Junkhacker Yes but it works perfectly with version 1.2.0 of Fog And it is built to install in a compatible equipment, it works in P-IV and P-III, in fact we are using it in our school as an image server to restore PCs of last Generation, with OS Win10 and MAX9 (based on Ubuntu 16’04). It is installed in a DELL optiplex 270

@Juan-Antonio Or you can use Multiserver Ubuntu 14.04, also with FOG 1.2.0 is a LiveCD with several services. Following the instructions works perfectly. The web is in Spanish language.
Multiserver
Multiserver LiveCD -
I would not advise using Ubuntu 10 or 14 or FOG 1.2 as a new installation.

why???

@Juan-Antonio FOG 1.2.0 is obsolete now, so is Ubuntu 10. And it’s just a bad idea to use anything but the latest LTS version of Ubuntu for a new build.

Until well ago was the official version, this I say, are LiveCD with FOG 1.2. installed so you only have to install and configure.
Fog 1.3.4 still gives errors, we are testing it, so I think this is a good solution to install without connection.In any case you can always try …
