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?

RE: WDS and Fog with Syslinux - Need Help!

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? -

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

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!
