@Wayne-Workman You were right. I followed the link and followed its instructions and it is now pushing the image. Really appreciate the assistance.

@prestop You can open the images in paint, select all, copy, then paste here.

If you did a debug deploy and you eventually got to a prompt, that means it finished its task. It either had errors or it finished the task without errors…Also, there is a log file in /var/log/forgotname.log on the client you are running the debug on.

PS I forgot to mention, I do not actually use DNS in my setup.

@Sebastian-Roth Thanks for this info. i came to ask about this very same issue, but luckily found this thread before doing so.

Ubuntu 14.x
Fog: 1.3.0 (7581)
Client OS: Win 7/10

I have an 1TB hdd. I create 2 partitions; C/D. The OS partition (C:) is small, like 300GB. The partition can be different; sometimes its XX files, sometimes it is GG files. The would always be the same. I was hoping to have the functionality of taking independent partition images and burning them separately, but I understand why this is a difficult task. Windows has its own boot partition is one issue.

Anyway, the point of the post is to say, it would be cool to have, but I would say it is a low priority - even to someone like me who would use it often.

Now to find ways to boost the speed!

@Quazz Unfortunately I am unable to do that with any ease. This is a disconnected network. I had just installed the latest SVN 2 days ago. But I will look around and see if any other methods.

@Quazz Well look at you sir. I did exactly that: created a new user and put in the info and now it at least attempts to image. Of course now it says something else: Fatal Error: Could not locate file /bin/fog.download.

Any tips on this? I will also search the forums and mark this as answered. Thanks for the help, really appreciated.

@Quazz Thanks for that tip. I tried that and I tried without any of the info. Still prompts for username/password and still tells me invalid login. When I take the login info out, shows me my images, when I select an image, it briefly says invalid login again before returning to main menu.

But, I see this is actually the solution I want. Because the user can select that and then be presented with any image they want.

This appears to be a networking related question vs a question about the application.

Previous poster is correct. Basically you would want to enable multicast on your layer 2 devices and perhaps on your layer 3. In general, you want to control where the multicast goes, so enabling is not the end of the story.

I am sure you all get tired of iPXE questions. I have read this article and that article. But as my wife can attest; I am a terrible ‘looker’.

I have fog installed; all seems to work. I can snag an image fine (i assume). Now I want to deploy that image. I assume I should go to ‘iPXE New Menu Entry’ and fill out that information? But I do NOT know what to put down in the various fields.

Does a guide exist to tell me what to put into those fields? Or does anyone know what I should put into those fields? (Not ISO; I feel confident I can do ISO’s all day thanks to the guides)

I have NOT searched for this yet, but since I am here: when I do multicast or quick images or anything, I do NOT want the user prompted for a password. When I tried to do the multicast deployment, it prompts for a username and password and does not like any user I try.

Great product. I like the new interface too. I have been spreading the word of Fog to many small bit gov agencies as a better solution than the current multi-million dollar solutions.

Any and all help is appreciated.
