Dear FOG Project-Community,
I’m relatively new to the FOG Server. But I saw that there was an option to boot an “.iso” from the FOG Server.
What I’d like to do is to be able to boot the “Acronis True Image 2020” over PXE with the FOG Server.
So generally, I managed to setup the FOG Server (Version 1.5.9) in combination with a Windows Server 2022 (DNS/DHCP).
I’m able to register clients, capture and deploy the clients and the background is also changed without any problem.
Further I copied the *.iso to following location
- /tftpboot/tools/acronistrueimage2020/acronistrueimage2020.iso
aswell i copied the memtest from
- /tftpboot/memtest
to - /tftpboot/tools/acronistrueimage2020/memtest
(i had read this is required in an older post somewhere)
The major problem I’m facing now is, that i have no clue to make this boot over PXE
I’ve seen that this was possible in FOG 1.5.7 with a Acronis 2018 WinPE stick.
Unfortunatelly the *.iso you now retrieve from acronis doesn’t seem to use WinPE anymore.
I’ve mounted the *.iso to get an overview of the contained files. but i don’t see through anymore.
Now I have no clue how to make the iPXE Menu entry.
Actually im that far:
- Menu Item “Acronis True Image 2020”
- Description “Acronis True Image 2020”
- Parameters “no clue to be honest”
- Boot Options “no clue to be honest”
- Default Item [no]
- Hot Key Enabled [no]
- Hot Key to use [none]
- Menu Show with “All Hosts”
Can I kindly ask to help and to get this work?
Every hint would be much appreciated.
Kind regards,
Pitohui
