Hi everyone, and thanks for your answers.

Good news! If FOG works for you, it’ll work for me too (comming soon).

@mashina said in Issue when I tried to make Windows 11 gold image:

I am not aware of any completion message on the server. As far as I know, once the progress bar in the Task tab reaches 100%, the image has been fully cloned to the computer. Can you confirm if that is what you are seeing?

In the PC client, yes it’s exactly this message appears

@mashina said in Issue when I tried to make Windows 11 gold image:

Based on your description, it sounds like your configuration is not capturing the boot partition. As a result, when the image finishes deploying, the system cannot find a valid boot mechanism and falls back to network boot.

I’m looking at the clone I made on a test PC, and I can see using diskpart that the BCD was created correctly.

The files are there.

I tried rebuilding the BCD using the commands.

I tried rebuilding the BCD using the commands. The output is correct, but Windows won’t boot.

I have the same configuration in my server.
But i tested the others options (im not used DD)

I don’t know what other options I have to check.
Do you know of any logs where I can find more information?

Regards

@Tom-Elliott Yep, I caught that workaround in the earlier post. I moved the image folder from /images/dev to /images, but still resulted in the same error.

One thing I noticed this morning, is that the image capture process is hanging at 99% on the task page, as in for at least 45 minutes. Not sure if that is a symptom or the cause.

The previous post was suspect of a very recent init version – but i’m on the most recent dev-branch.

Thank you!

I am confident I have ruled out NFS. I can now connect to the NFS from localhost and Ubuntu to /images & /images/dev without issue and all the permissions that come with it. The only thing failing now is FOG, any guidance would be great!

@Tom-Elliott Thank you so much Tom, as always I appreciate your support and guidance.

@chevengur there is not enough information to help you in that picture. If we could see more of the error message that partclone threw (i.e. just above the top of your picture) we would know what happened. At the point in the script all we know is that partclone wasn’t happy.

Ok so the system in question has an on board nic (enp128s31f6), 1 single port Intel PCI-E Gigabit NIC (enp5s0), and 1 dual port Intel PCI-E Gigabit NIC (enp3s0 and enp4s0).

So I booted the system with a Linux system rescue USB key. The network cable is plugged into the single port nic. You can see that it has the IP address 172.16.57.22 was fetched. Without any issues. The mac addresses on the identified nics are:

enp128s31f6 - d4:a2:cd:b7:17:f2 enp3s0 - 00:13:3b:50:b2:b0 enp4s0 - 00:13:3b:50:b2:b1 enp5s0 - ec:08:6b:04:f9:d9 (the one that is attached to the network cable)

Now when I boot the system up into debug mode with FOG into the FOS environment it seems whatever port is pluged into the lan it adopts another NIC’s mac address as shown below:

Now you can see when the fog client boots the mac address changes on the port that is connected to the LAN as:

enp128s31f6 - d4:a2:cd:b7:17:f2 enp3s0 - 00:13:3b:50:b2:b0 enp4s0 - 00:13:3b:50:b2:b1 enp5s0 - ec:08:6b:04:f9:d9 --> Changed to 00:13:3b:50:b2:b0 (the one that is attached to the network cable)

Now I’ve plugged the cable into enp128s31f6 and setup dhcp on that port as well and tested it. When the fog client starts all of sudden the enp128s31f6 has another NIC’s mac address…

Just a re-cap if I pull the two network cards, and do the re-image on the system I have no issues. It only occurs when I put an additional nic into the system… Any suggestions?

@Tom-Elliott thx👍

Please see if this helps? Specifically the task related items. Sometimes stale (old/bad items suddenly show up from long ago.) admittedly I’d love to know what caused (or causes?) this but it has so far eluded me this far.
