@george1421 said in Which USB 3.0 ethernet adapter?:

@bristow-0 The issue/trick is to get a usb network adapter that is supported by your laptop/tablets firmware. The uefi firmware is very much like a small linux operating system in that it has a limited set of drivers built in to support pxe booting. So the firmware needs to know about the network adapter. You can’t just use any generic network adapter to pxe boot. In this case you will only need the usb 3 ethernet adapter when you image the computer. Once the target computer has the windows OS on it then it can use wifi.

Thanks. OS will be Gnu/Linux

What model computers are we talking about.

This one : https://www.ldlc-pro.com/fiche/PB00424400.html
and they are based on clevo models : https://www.pcw.fr/93-15-6-pouces

As an alternate If you ignore pxe booting on the target computer, but instead usb boot into iPXE then you can use any generic USB to ethernet adapter supported by iPXE. So for this idea you will need a usb ethernet adapter supported by both iPXE and FOS Linux as well as a usb flash drive with iPXE loaded on it. You will boot iPXE from the flash drive, it will see the generic ethernet adapter and jump into the fog iPXE menu.

Ok, but I don’t understand what iPXE is, is it a Linux system? How do you install it on the USB key? I must have missed a step

Thanks for your reply !

Most laptops come without an RJ45 port. But we need a PXE compatible ethernet port to deploy our images.

Do you know a compatible adapter?

LDLC (a French shop) refers us to this Microsoft model, but 50€ is too much for schools…

Do you have any cheaper references that would be recognized at boot time (our laptops are without OS).

Thanks

@sebastian-roth said in Grub rescue after deploy task:

Please change the boot order to let this machine boot from disk directly to see if that works.

This machine is already booting on the disk, or I didn’t understand how FOG works and if I need to change something else?

Is this setting correct, I don’t understand what it does?

Thanks

Hello,

I have prepared an Ubuntu Mate image with 3 partitions

• /efi 100 Mb
• /
• swap

Everything went well and I captured my image with this setting:

Now I deployed to test on another workstation, and every time it starts, I get a grub rescue error:

error no such partition
grub rescue>

Is this a problem with my host settings?

Thanks for your help!

@george1421 désolé george pour le dérangement, j’ai trouvé le problème à ma solution tout seul ne prend pas en compte mes messages et mes images stp. merci bien

C’est bien aussi de donner la solution au problème. Cela peut servir à d’autres personnes. Merci.

Hello Sebastian, Hello Tom

First of all, I would like to salute your work which is very helpful for us on a regional scale (Hauts-de-France, France).
The development of FogProject systems is unquestionably irreproachable and indispensable for large structures such as ours.

Have you thought about switching to a business model geared towards professionals, like WAPT?
We would be delighted to collaborate with you in this context, and this would allow you to recruit developers in a paid way.

Best regards.

My work is online (PR on GitHub) : https://github.com/FOGProject/fogproject/pull/431

Bonjour, @tallier

Pensez à écrire en anglais sur ce forum (en attendant un sous-forum français). Deepl est votre ami pour la traduction https://www.deepl.com/translator

Pour déployer un serveur Windows, je mettrai Windows Other au niveau de l’image.

Traduction Deepl :
Think of writing in English on this forum (while waiting for a French sub-forum). Deepl is your friend for translation https://www.deepl.com/translator

To deploy a Windows server, I will put Windows Other at the image level.

Did all packages install properly?

Rocky Linux doesn’t seem to be a natively supported distribution, so are the requirements ok (https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/Installation#Requirements)?

modules:composer.user_said_in, @sebastian-roth, Update french translation for Fog 1.5.9

the home page is still in English whereas on the stable version, I was in French by default

Which page do you mean when you say “home page”? I remember @Tom-Elliott worked on one part of the translation code. Maybe one of those commits changed the behaviour:
https://github.com/FOGProject/fogproject/commit/4e9c5a87ba3d938f06861c26cdd2f6e65ca1d812

https://github.com/FOGProject/fogproject/commit/c1cde2f1d0054d19566459e9bc7830519c186e61

This page is always in English in dev-branch :

OK @tom-elliott, keep me posted, I’d love to see this site available in French. It looks more serious for the decision makers…

@sebastian-roth Thank you !

My file went through on my test server (dev-branch) but I noticed some problems:

• the home page is still in English whereas on the stable version, I was in French by default
• the menus on the sides are not translated or partially:

For the first two, this corresponds to the channels that have %s in the English channel that I put back in the French channel

I also noticed many untranslated channels, for example Dashboard here:

So I don’t know if I’m already pushing my file or not?

But pages are much better!

Before :

After :

@wayne-workman The Google translation of technical project is just awful. Deepl gives much better results.

Besides, I hardly ever use Google and even less Google Chrome

I’m waiting for Tom’s answer

After translating almost all the FOG web part into French, I would like to translate the website.

Is this site designed to be translated into different languages?

I have made good progress on the translation of FOG into French.

There was a lot of work. Currently, I’m trying to translate directly in PoEdit but is there a solution to see my work in FOG, knowing that I installed FOG (dev-branch) on a VM…

Thanks !

PS : I should be able to push my file this week…

Is it possible to clone an image from a recent Win10 workstation to a virtual machine on ProxMox?

I have tried but when I start up, I get a black screen and my Win10 doesn’t boot…

Do you have any feedback? Thanks for your help!

Thank you for your reply @sebastian-roth

So I forked the project and started the translation, there is a lot of work!

Is there an end date for this translation to arrive in the next version of FOG?

Ok, i found message.po on GitHub : https://raw.githubusercontent.com/FOGProject/fogproject/dev-branch/packages/web/management/languages/fr_FR.UTF-8/LC_MESSAGES/messages.po

Perhaps the wiki page mentioned above should be modified…

If I modify the message.po file for the French language, how do I submit it for the future version?

Hi !

I would like to improve the French translation of FOG. So, I followed this tutorial (https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php?title=How_to_translate_FOG) but it starts badly because the message.pot file (http://freeghost.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/freeghost/trunk/packages/web/management/languages/messages.pot) is not available.

How should I proceed, is there a new translation solution?

Thanks a lot !

Hello,
I use FOG version 1.5.9 and the last client on win10 computers that I try to join to an NT domain (Samba and not AD).

My clients can’t join the domain, it stays in workgroup but they are well renamed.

Here is what I fill in AD :

Am I wrong somewhere? Thanks for your fabulous project !
