Hello,

To use Ubuntu, what is the recommended version to run the latest version of FOG?

Otherwise, does the newest version of CentOS work well for FOG too?

Thanks,

Brent

@Sebastian-Roth It was a windows 7 machine that couldn’t be logged into so it was wiped and then imaged with windows 10. Otherwise, I did nothing else with the machine or the network configuration.

@Sebastian-Roth They are on two different VLANs. One handles DHCP through a cisco switch and the other handles DHCP through a server.

@Sebastian-Roth They are on two networks. They act as DHCP for all of the things on their individual IP scheme. aka .112 and .126 networks. The DHCP doesn’t seem to be the problem because I watch the device get assigned the IP. It is after that when TFTP hangs.

@Sebastian-Roth As far as changes go, none were made before the issue. I disabled firewall to troubleshoot and I can TFTP from any laptop on our network. I have 2 networks set to give DHCP one is a switch and one is a DHCP server both work fine for giving the DHCP address for the PXE boot. It just seems to be this machine having an issue with TFTP.

@Quazz Yes same switch and the same network. I tried switching ports on the switch. I am also using the same cable and port plugged into the other PC’s.

I217-LM network adapter

The machine pulls an IP from DHCP just fine during the boot, it just seems to be TFTP that is not working on this machine.

Hello,

I have not been able to TFTP to FOG using a physical HP EliteDesk, but I have no problem doing it from all of my ProDesks. What is weird is that I was able to image this computer before no problem, but now it cannot connect to TFTP during PXE boot or in CMD in windows with TFTP enabled.

Any thoughts?

Thanks,

Brent

File was named d1 partitions. Only file with a similar name to the ones above.

@Sebastian-Roth
Both have the same BIOS settings and the same motherboard firmware. HP BIOS is UEFI with legacy boot enabled to make network boot easier. SSD to an HDD. Both SATA.

Deployed from smaller hard drive image to larger hard drive. Computer is stuck preparing automatic repair and infinite reboots.

Image is Windows 10. Same model of computer but with a different processor. i5 to an i3. Quad core to a Dual core.

I don’t know what to do mainly because I can’t get it to boot to the hard drive other than system recovery.

@Tom-Elliott Deployed from smaller hard drive image to larger hard drive. Computer is stuck preparing automatic repair and infinite reboots.

@Brenth453 I was able to use a router as DHCP and it worked flawlessly. Windows is just a flat out sketchy DHCP.

@Tom-Elliott How do you tell fog to only image the C drive? I can’t use single disk unless I specify the correct disk to capture an image of.

@Tom-Elliott I am going to capture another image and set it to single disk resizable. I am getting an error though about “The disk contains an unclean file system.”

@Tom-Elliott Yes it does unfortunately. I’m assuming the image deploy works from smaller hard drives onto larger ones? If it does then I could probably capture an image off of this and then deploy to the other one.

@george1421 So we have gotten somewhere. I have the image uploaded and am attempting to deploy to another machine of the same model.

@george1421 Tried a dumb switch. Cannot get it to PXE boot through a dumb switch.

@george1421 If spanning tree is the issue though what needs to be different if RSTP is enabled and we even went as far as setting an IP helper. Sorry this image refuses to rotate.
