[quote=“Jeroen Brussich, post: 47057, member: 23215”]I did configure both bootfiles on the same tftpserver.
Maybe that’s what I did wrong?

This is what i see on my boot screen:
[CODE]tftp://MY.IP/default.ipxe… ok
http://MY.IP/fog/service/ipxe/boot.php… ok
http://MY.IP/fog/service/ipxe/bg.png… ok

Could not use picture: Exec format error (htt://ipxe.org/2e008081)
Could not boot: Exec format error (htt://ipxe.org/2e008081)
Could not boot: Exec format error (htt://ipxe.org/2e008081)

Failed to get IP, Booting back to bios
[/CODE]

I downloaded ipxe.efi from [url]https://svn.code.sf.net/p/freeghost/code/trunk/packages/tftp/[/url]

[B]edit:[/B] even if I don’t use the policy and make ipxe.efi the default BootFile Name of that scope, I get the same error. Maybe my ipxe.efi file is corrupt?[/quote]

It’s definitely working because the bootfile instructed your client to download default.ipxe and so on.

That being said, the problem now is with the bg.png picture. Maybe Tom will chime in with a fix for the bg.png…

[quote=“Wayne Workman, post: 47037, member: 28155”]I don’t know what parts you want me to take out, though…[/quote]

None. Just replace [B]FOG[/B] with your FOG server’s hostname and replace [B]10.0.0.3[/B] with your FOG server’s IP.

I goofed on the last line, it should read [I][FONT=Consolas]dhcp-range=[/FONT][/I][B][I][FONT=Consolas]10.0.0.0[/FONT][/I][/B][I][FONT=Consolas],proxy,255.255.255.0[/FONT][/I]

For that, replace [B]10.0.0.0[/B] with your network’s address.

And if you want to change any of the bootfiles to different ones have at it.

No worries, just wanted to make sure nobody overlooked them.

Has anyone tried either of my configs I posted? Both of them properly serve legacy/efi bootfiles.

[quote=“Wayne Workman, post: 46763, member: 28155”]That’d be a negative… for both BIOS and UEFI… used two different machines to test.

I’ve attached my WORKING ltsp.conf file, and the one I got from here (which I ripped the comments out of, and changed IP, and repaced .kpxe and .efi with .0)

I also ensured I had the .0 files, too.[/quote]

Give this a try under [B]tftp-root=/tftpboot[/B] (replace FOG with your FOG server’s hostname):

[CODE]dhcp-boot=undionly.kpxe,FOG,10.0.0.3
dhcp-match=set:efi-ia32,option:client-arch,6
dhcp-boot=tag:efi-ia32,ipxe.efi,FOG,10.0.0.3
dhcp-match=set:efi-x86_64,option:client-arch,7
dhcp-boot=tag:efi-x86_64,snp.efi,FOG,10.0.0.3
dhcp-range=10.0.0.3,proxy,255.255.255.0
[/CODE]

I use my router’s dnsmasq now, but this is my old working FOG dhcpd.conf that should do the trick.

Change the IP’s/bootfiles to suite your needs.

[CODE]# DHCP Server Configuration file.

see /usr/share/doc/dhcp*/dhcpd.conf.sample

This file was created by FOG

More than likely you need to make a custom 32-bit bootfile for these to work. At the very least it will save you from having mess with bzImage/init.xz.

As for Partclone, it could never find the hard disk to start the image upload task.

Same thing for inventory…FOG was unable to fill in the hard disk field on all of them…

[quote=“rball01, post: 46645, member: 29220”]Were you able to successfully register the host, or did you use manual registration?[/quote]

Here’s how I pulled inventory on 517 Asus T100TA’s…

I did 10 at a time. I had 10 USB–>LAN adapters, all labeled 01-10. I had a list of the MAC addresses for each adapter.

I then added each tablet to my FOG hosts with my desired hostnames and their corresponding MAC addresses.

Then I had to set their Host Primary Disk to /dev/mmcblk0. Then I had to create a new group with all 10 of them in it. Then I could finally start the inventory task.

Mind you, I also had to disable Secure Boot on every one first, then let them start inventory. I always got some kernel panics too, and had to reboot them until they finally started the task. Sometimes any device could take four reboots before the kernel stopped panicking lol

Pain in my ass is an understatement lol…

For the record, the ONLY way I was ever able to hit the Partclone screen/pull inventory was by setting the Host Primary Disk to:

/dev/mmcblk0

I tried /dev/mmcblk, mmcblk, mmcblk0, etc and that’s the only one that’s ever worked for me.

Hopefully this can help save you some time/headaches

This should help…

I spent some time on this over the winter, specifically trying to add a custom entry for WDS to FOG’s advanced iPXE boot menu…without any help from dnsmasq.

I remember the part that stumped me was passing Option 60 (PXEClient) with iPXE. If this is even possible and anyone knows how to do this I’d love to hear it

That is exactly what I was looking for, Tom. Thank you so much!!!

You’re the man, Tom! Thank you for the prompt response.

Taking a snapshot of my server before updating to 3319, I’ll report back…

Lol, that’s still not what I’m getting at…

What I’m requesting is only in regard to the “Export” button located under:

Host Management - Export Hosts

I know what the database backup does. That’s not what I’m asking about…

I simply want the ability to export all of my hosts while retaining all of their additional MAC’s in the exported csv.

I did some searching and I couldn’t find this covered anywhere…my apologies if I missed it.

Simply put, I would love to be able to export hosts with ALL of their additional MAC’s included in the export.
Additionally, the ability to then import them with all of their MAC’s.

Is this possible? I’m curious to know.

Thanks for all you guys do!

Ok. I just re-read it again and Tom is correct, you’ll need to upgrade to the latest SVN for these to work.

[CODE]apt-get install subversion
svn co https://svn.code.sf.net/p/freeghost/code/trunk/ /opt/trunk
cd /opt/trunk/bin
./installfog.sh[/CODE]

Once upgraded use the snp.efi bootfile and see if you’re able to register the Surface with FOG.

Ok, I just re-read this thread and I missed your earlier message:

“I then tried the snp.efi which booted to a very basic looking menu”

The snp.efi is what you’ll want to use for these.

Now, we just need to find a good kernel for these to boot with and you should be all set.

Correct. Once we get you to a shell we can go from there.

On that note, once you are able to boot to an iPXE shell make a note of the architecture of the EFI bootfile. Go back to [url]https://rom-o-matic.eu[/url] and re-compile an EFI bootfile with the correct architecture for your Surfaces.

Keep us posted.
