    • RE: Client capture issue (lenovo laptop)

      @quazz You’re right. Must have been a bad spot or something. One thing we all know Windows does is to add a minimum of two partitions on a clean install. Mine had 3 (ms system reserved, empty) partition. Did lots of research, found I don’t need three, just setup GPT with single partition, did base install, and now FOG imaging upload works.

      Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

    • RE: FOG Image options when saving an image on a PC that has 2 hard disks?

      @Sebastian-Roth Gosh darn it, that worked!!! What ultimately was done was what you suggested. Someone else had suggested the primary disk change, that was removed. But there was also some custominit.xz or something like that listed as well, so I changed that to init.xz. Can’t believe it, but that worked! Now going to try and deploy this same image to exact same hardware on different PC. I’ll let you know how the deploy goes. Sebestian (and team) thanks so much for your hard work and diligence on this. -Jim

    • RE: Dell Optiplex & Fog PXE Connectivity

      Hi Tom and Rodluz. I use FoG often. Our company uses Lenovo’s predominantly and all works great. For legacy devices I use undionly.kkpxe but mainly for EUFI devices I use ipxe.efi

      Tom, I went into Bios and yes, Secure Boot and all of its options are enabled.
      Rodluz, yes I do get the >>Start PXE over IPv4. screen and then I get the proper IP addresses and message that NBP file downloaded successfull, then the screen goes blank and then the Start PXE over IPv6 screen pops up, then nothing. Times out.

      Thanks for the responses, all. What’s my workaround to get this to work?

    • Dell Optiplex & Fog PXE Connectivity

      I have a new Dell Optiplex 7020 and I am trying to get it to connect to my FoG server via PXE and it’s not working. Anyone know of a working FXE file I should be using for this connectivity? I want to save an image that uses EUFI Bios and iPXE is not working 😞

      Any suggestions?

    • RE: I've deleted images but the storage node space remains the same?

      Oops!
      I deleted from CLI. But I just did that again and the image did not appear in the list and the storage number increased accordingly.

    • I've deleted images but the storage node space remains the same?

      Hello. I have deleted old images in my images folder. However, the available storage space node never changes. How can I update this to show actual drive space available for images?

    • Multiple partition NOT resizeable?

      Hello team. Running into an issue. I have these new Lenovo all-in-one devices and I have opted to use the available SSD rive addon as my base OS drive, and a secondary 500gb for data. However in fog, while I can select multiple partition image, it will not allow me to make either of the drive resizable. That created big problems for me. Is fog going to come up with some work around for this? Has anyone any thoughts on this?

    • RE: Image menu not showing recently created images

      @sebastian-roth said in Image menu not showing recently created images:

      @Jim-Holcomb How many images do you have? I am not aware of a limit of images that can be seen in the menu but I can’t tell you for sure.

      So would you be able to delete an older one and see if one of the new one pops up in the menu?

      Hello Sebastian - I tried that - deleting older images. No joy. You know that the image menu just keeps going to the next number in order. I am currently at 160, but of course I do not have anywhere near that many images. Then menu goes to 158 then ends. Yet if I go to “List all Images” of course the image resides there with all of it’s available information, size, date, etc…

      I am stumped here.

    • RE: Image menu not showing recently created images

      @jim-holcomb I can deploy them manually from host, but not automatically from choosing the image from the menu. Not sure why they do not appear on the menu?

    • Image menu not showing recently created images

      I have created and uploaded two new images for deployment, but they are now showing up on the boot menu. Any idea why?
