I changed the d1.partitions and d1.minimum.partitions and it works.

@sebastian-roth
I am not sure to understand what you asked me to do.

i tried changing the size of the data partition in the d1.minimum.partitions files, and set this partitions to fixed by adding its number in the d1.fixed_size_partitions

but it did not work.

Here are the content of the partition files.

d1.fixed_size_partitions

:1:2:5:1:2:5

@sebastian-roth here are the picture of the debug deploy task with kernel arguments.
It shows an error message "sfdisk failed in (applySfdiskPartitions)

getting the inits with wget the SHA1 sum are correct. maybe it was an issue with cahced files.

The version now shows 20210307

it still does not work

here is the filling disk step

the data partition after deploy still is
68387676 blocks while it should be 496336896

@sebastian-roth
there is no “filling disk” step in debug deploy task.
see picture below

i copied the latest inits once again and the Version show is still 20200906

here are the SHA1 sums

0d60fc165643a57c10120e0892f2a1e520b53809  /var/www/html/fog/service/ipxe/init_32.xz

bea70a25cd1f0ddfd15bd1124acafaed79408d1e  /var/www/fog/service/ipxe/init.xz

So i ran some tests following my intuition that the “windows not loading” symptom came from a lack of disk space, and fog not resizing correctly the Data partition of Windows.
Among other things the result of the sfdisk -d /dev/nvme0n1 led me to think about this.

It show 68387676 blocks size for the C : system partition. which is the equivalent of the same partition size in the d1.minimum_partitions file.
its about 32GB which is the Used size on the partition.

I booted with a Live Gparted, and expanded the partition, then the computer boots normally.

So i think the issue lies with the resizing, not with CRC check.

@sebastian-roth said in deploy issue after copying image to an other FOG server:

@boombasstic When updating the inits today I just noticed that I was on the wrong track. So far the inits on the webserver were still the ones not having the fix. I am sorry, didn’t remember I actually uploaded the fixed one separately: https://fogproject.org/inits/init-1.5.9-ignore_crc-fix.xz

As well you can re-download the current official inits that have the fix in them as well - as of now.

https://fogproject.org/inits/init.xz
https://fogproject.org/inits/init_32.xz

With the init-1.5.9-ignore_crc-fix.xz init Version was: 2020927

With the current official inits , the Version was : 20200906

Wit both of the the problem still occurs.

@sebastian-roth said in deploy issue after copying image to an other FOG server:

https://fogproject.org/inits/init.xz
https://fogproject.org/inits/init_32.xz

We replaced the inits with those, and we still having the issue.

@george1421 Thanks for the help
@Sebastian-Roth

i did as requested, please find below the pictures

@sebastian-roth when i type the fog command in the shell i get the following error:

if it helps, i found another post where they were having the same exact issue i’m having

Windows boots, but no icon on desktop, and not possible to do anything even load task manager.
But the solution or re capturing (which works) is time consuming if i have to re deploy all my images with 1.5.7 and recapture them with 1.5.9.

here is the content of the images captured with 1.5.7 which “crashes” after deploy from 1.5.9

d1.fixed_size_partitions

:1:2:5:1:2:5

@sebastian-roth Thanks for your answer.

I changed the inits, but i still have the same issue.
I wonder if it could come from a resize problem during deploy. And on boot there is no available space on the system drive, so windows crashes?

i noticed that with the images captured from and wich work on my 1.5.7 server, the d1.fixed_size_partitions is :1:2:5:1:2:5
On the image captured with 1.5.9 server it is 1:2

Hi,

Im using FOG for a bit more than a year, and it works great. my FOG server is using FOG 1.5.7 on CentOS 7. I had to create a new server, but decided to try it on Debian. Installation was smooth and i installed the latest version 1.5.9, and copied my Windows images from one server to the other.
However when i deploy my images, after reboot, the Windows OS seem to be “corrupted”. Windows starts but explorer crashes and windows is unusable.
i tried different things, but with same result.
I tried deploying images on different devices, they all act the same. Though deploy with my old server works fine with same image.
Images capture from Debian server and deployed from it are fine, but i would like to use my images from CentOS server and not re-create 50 images.
Is there a reason for same image to create such result on deploy with different version of FOG (1.5.7 / 1.5.9) running on different OSes (CentOS7 / Debian 10).

Thanks for your help.
