    • RE: WDS and Fog with Syslinux - Need Help!

      @george1421

      F… Yea!!! Thank You so much for the HELP!

      Here is how I made it work:
      -DHCP Server (Separate Server) - PXE pointing to Fog Server with added policy for UEFI and Option 66 & 67 configured.
      -WDS with MDT running on a Win Server
      -Fog Server on Ubuntu
      -On WDS server - DHCP - “Do Not Listen on DHCP ports” <- This disables the WDS netboot
      -Created Custom Menu in Fog with your parameters.

      All GOOD!

    • RE: RHEL 8 ISO Bootable on FOG

      Sorry for the 8 month reply. It worked as you pointed out! I have switched to RHEL 9.5

      Here is how it was done if someone is interested:

      Download the RHEL9.5.iso to the fog server (mine is running Ubuntu)
      sudo mkdir /mnt/rhel_iso
      sudo mount -o loop /path/to/rhel-9.5.iso /mnt/rhel_iso

      Copy the contents to var:
      sudo mkdir -p /var/www/html/rhel9.5
      sudo cp -r /mnt/rhel_iso/* /var/www/html/rhel9.5/
      sudo chmod -R 755 /var/www/html/rhel9.5

      Get the vmlinuz and initrd.img from the /var/www/html/rhel9.5 to /tftpboot/rhel9.5 (create /tftpboot/rhel9.5 folder)
      sudo cp /var/www/html/rhel9.5/images/pxeboot/vmlinuz /tftpboot/rhel9.5/
      sudo cp /var/www/html/rhel9.5/images/pxeboot/initrd.img /tftpboot/rhel9.5/

      Before you move on, go to http://your-fog-server-ip/rhel9.5 make sure you can see the directories of the iso content you dropped in /var/www/html/rhel9.5

      Set up the Menu on the Fog UI (Here is mine)

      kernel tftp://10.10.10.6/rhel9.5/vmlinuz
      initrd tftp://10.10.10.6/rhel9.5/initrd.img
      imgargs vmlinuz initrd=initrd.img ip=dhcp inst.repo=http://10.10.10.6/rhel9.5/ splash quiet
      boot || goto MENU

    • RHEL 8 ISO Bootable on FOG

      I need to get a bootable ISO RHEL 8 on my Fog Server. My FOG is running Ubuntu 20.04.
      I was trying to do a similar setup as with GParted but it doesn’t work. I see in the tutorials there is no CentOS either. Is there a problem with bootable RHEL 8?

      @george1421
      You were right! I still could not figure out how to update database from the Web UI but I went through all settings and “Update” as they were. This time in the CLI, after I pressed “Enter”, it installed the config file and few other stuff.
      On WDS server, under Properties >DHCP, when I checkmark “Do Not Respond to DHCP”, the WDS server never answers. It’s a pretty good way of disabling it and pointing to Fog with the 66,67 options.

      Last question!
      I want to transfer the “Gold” Images from the server in the other site. Can I just copy and paste the Images Folder from from the other Linux Machine?

    • RE: WDS and Fog with Syslinux - Need Help!

      @george1421
      I am trying to replicate the FOG-WDS environment on a different site. WDS works fine but Fog is not. Clients never managed to boot into the fog Menu. I did everything as I set up on the previous environment. Where should I look to troubleshoot? I have a feeling Fog didn’t install properly.
      My env:
      DHCP - handled by a local AD Win Server - PXE Network with Option 66, 67 pointing to the fog server and ipxe.efi
      Fog Server on Ubuntu 22.04 - I can login on the web console to Fog, but the strange thing is that I don’t have a fogproject user or a config file to check.

      @george1421
      This is what should go into the Fog custom Menu right?
      Do I need to create NFS shares on the WDS or Fog side?

      Thank You!

    • RE: WDS and Fog with Syslinux - Need Help!

      The second option (Fog to WDS) is much better!
      So I would have to remove the syslinux files from WDS?
      Point my DHCP to the Fog Server with the Options for UEFI, 66, 67?
      Then Set up NFS share on the FOG and WDS side?
      Is this the right step by step? - WinPE 10 for BIOS and UEFI based systems

    • WDS and Fog with Syslinux - Need Help!

      I have gone through almost every article that there is! Can’t find a good tutorial for this solution.

      I have WDS Server configured and working for WIN 10 images deployment.
      I have a fog server with Linux distros and golden images.
      I have set up Syslinux that loads up with BIOS and shows a menu for WDS, which installs all Win 10.
      I want to be able to somehow link the Fog Server to this menu so when I choose Fog, I am presented with the Fog menu. Is this possible?

      Any help would be appreciated!
