I finally got FOG up and running on a 14.04 Ubuntu VM and have followed the steps here: https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/Ubuntu_14.04 (some parts of that aren’t super clear, like when/how to connect via PXE) - first time setting up a FOG server
My target machine to create my initial image boots to PXE, but then displays one of two things - and I hit the same issues when using Clonezilla Server edition (although that did get slightly further into the boot process), so I’m starting to suspect it is my target hardware that is screwing with me. Targeting an HP Pavilion x2 and I have these Insignia USB2 to ethernet adapters that are he only ones (I have tried 8 different ones) that allow the computer to boot to PXE.
The computer connects to the FOG server…for a split second…and then it shows:
The selected boot device failed. Press enter to continue
(I have disabled Secure boot)
OR
Station IP Address is 192.168.100.11
Server IP Address is 192.168.100.181 (this is my FOG server address)
MBP Filename is undionly.kpxe
MBP file size is 91395 bytes
Downloading MBP file..
Succeed to download MBP file.
And then it instantly jumps to trying to boot from ipv6, but nothing ever happens and I’m forced to boot to normal windows.
Does anyone have anything I could try to find out a little more about what I might be doing wrong, or some other settings to try just to make sure the PXE boot will work to get to the PXE Menu? Not sure if the problem is in the device, the NIC, or in my FOG setup.
Thanks!
