[quote=“Uncle Frank, post: 42587, member: 28116”]There are a couple of examples here in the forums. e.g.: [url]http://fogproject.org/forum/threads/boot-menu-iso-file-size.12442/[/url][/quote]

Thanks. That worked. Got the AVG ISO booting now.
If anyone is interested In Fog 1.2.0, in the fog configuration in the advanced config options text box I have this :

menu
item --gap – ---------------- iPXE boot menu ----------------
item AVG AVG Antivirus scan
item Sophos Sophos Antivirus scan
item shell ipxe shell
item return return to previous menu
choose --default AVG --timeout 5000 target && goto ${target}

:AVG
initrd http://${fog-ip}/${fog-webroot}/iso/avg_arl_cdi_all_120_141126a8645.iso
chain memdisk iso raw ||
goto MENU

:Sophos
initrd http://${fog-ip}/${fog-webroot}/iso/sophosbootable.iso
chain memdisk iso raw ||
goto MENU

:shell
shell ||
goto MENU

:return
chain http://${fog-ip}/${fog-webroot}/service/ipxe/boot.php?mac=${net0/mac} ||
prompt
goto MENU

autoboot[/CODE]

Next task is to customise that iso so its got up to date definitions, sets the network and proxy appropriately and has 2 options “scan” and “custom” where scan just gets on with it (if nothing is selected) without asking loads of questions and custom gives access to the original ARL menu…

We have a couple of these HP 260 G1 computers on test.

I have enabled legacy support in the BIOS, set network book to be the default and rebooted. It picks up the network boot and starts the iPXE process and gets as far as:

ipxe 1.0.0+ (3a02) -- Open Source Network Boot Firmware -- 
features : NFS FTP <etc>
Menu 
Configuring (net0 <mac addres> ) ......

and then boots into windows rather than the menu.

Any ideas where to start looking? Google didn’t show me anything with what I searched for…

Did you get a working solution for this? We’ve just bought our first 8 HP Prodesk 400 G1 PCs. We get the same pnp 00:05 can’t evaluate _crs 12311 error but its registered in the database.

Did you have to reinstall /repartition with MBR instead of GPT?

Leaving it pushing an image of the default software to the server over the weekend but any heads up on solutions you may have used/found would be appreciated. Thanks

hmmm. Getting the same issue as above but the github file location is giving me a 404. Are we any closer to getting a solution?

Full scan seemed to fail on the few I tried it on so I switched to using quick scan so that I could at least add tasks. My priority has been using the PXE boot virus software after an “incident” earlier in the month.

If I import the list now will it match on MAC addresses and not create duplicates?

I’ve got a new FOG1.2.0 install on Ubuntu 14.10. I’m running a quick register from the PXE menu to allow me to get all the hosts on before we start moving PCs round and reimaging them. Most seem to go into the host list OK (some are very old) but none have their host names filled in, just a MAC address (less the colons).

Being new to Fog I’m not sure where to start with this one.
It would be good to get name resolution working properly but in the meantime is it going to break anything if I update the host names directly in the DB using SQL and a hostname/mac address list I’ve got from spiceworks?
