I just needed to sysprep the Windows 10 image and I was able to image it successfully.

Partclone Gzip

I have two other images captured via PXE using Partclone Gzip that worked.

See below. /dev/sdb1 was my second 700GB volume that I added to the system. I thought it was the problem at first but verified it wasn’t.

I might downgrade to 1.4.1 again at this point since I"m running out of ideas.

Just recreated the image using @george1421 's excellent instructions, same error persists.

Thanks

So I created a new permanent VM for my Ubuntu installation. I then added a second volume and moved /images successfully, mounted it, and it works fine for ipxe clients.

I can no longer USB image the 7202 tablets though using Fog 1.4.2 on the new server. To prove this out I fired up my local VM and updated grub.cfg and I’m pulling an image using Fog 1.4.1.

Error is below. I’m pretty much a newbie to Fog, do I need to update my Fos USB image

Thanks, Darren

You’re right, that was the issue. I don’t have a lot of experience imaging UEFI.

The FOS solution should work for us, I’m booting a second tablet currently that I imaged and it seems fine.

Thanks so much for the help.

Thanks, I was able to pull an image this morning. I’m having an issue restoring it to another tablet, I’m getting a partition error about an unclean mount. I"m working my way through that issue.

Would using UEFI be easier you think?

I also tried ipxe.pxe, it wouldn’t even boot to the menu.

Thanks

Upgraded to FOG 1.4.1, same issue. I’m using undionly.kpxe as well, I’ve tried undionly.kkpxe as well.

The 7404 seems pretty similar to the 7202, its just an extreme rugged version.

Thanks

Legacy mode would be easier I think. Most of the machines I image are Windows 7, but I’m starting to get some 8.1/10 machines.

I have the desktop dock, one USB 2.0 in the front. and two 3.0 in the back. Also the tablet itself has one USB 3.0 port. I’ve tried all of the usb ports, they all freeze the PXE menu.

I’ll upgrade to current and report back.

Thanks,

Darren

Server

• FOG Version: 1.3.5
• OS: Ubuntu 14.04.5

Client

• Service Version: Dell Latitude 7202 Bios A13
• OS: Windows 10

Description

Switched to Legacy boot since UEFI PXE boot was not working.

FOG menu appears and “Boot from hard disk” counts down from 20.

I’ve hooked up a keyboard to the USB port on the side of the tablet, pressing a key on the keyboard will cause the countdown to stop, presumably freezing the menu.

I’ve encountered this issue on two new 7202’s, I’ve tried different keyboards as well. I even flashed one with a newer bios A15 and now it doesn’t PXE boot properly at all.

Any ideas?

Thanks, Darren
