      @dbrilliant
      I have also tried the basic install without making any changes, and fog definitely doesn’t work. But this fresh install is the farthest I’ve got. i can get to the Fog site, but do any changes need to be made on it? I have all defaults, except the Fog menu timeout for 10 seconds.

    • RE: Cannot get DHCP to work to see if PXE will work on FOG v1.54/Ubuntu Server 18.04 LTS

      Thanks Sebastian, I started completely from scratch, and installed the isc-dhcp-server applet for Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. Once I setup the parameters and in the netplan & dhcpd.conf files for my primary interface (eno1), and I can now grab an DHCP IP address w/ Default gateway, but when PXE booting to a PC to see if the FOG menu appears, it will not pick up anything. Just times out. Is there something I missed. I also told fog to use eno1 (192.168.2.1) as the primary interface, and didn’t select DHCP during the install. Any ideas?

    • Cannot get DHCP to work to see if PXE will work on FOG v1.54/Ubuntu Server 18.04 LTS

      I have successfully installed FOG v1.54 on Ubuntu Server 18.04 LTS, and have manually assigned a static IP for my primary NIC (eno1) with an IP address of: 192.168.2.1/24. I will not be using DNS at all, but what else needs to be done in fog, or one of the core fog files to allow DHCP to run, I chose “Y” for that option. I am also using a dummy switch that has no access to the outside network and can do 1-3 machines at a time. There are no firewalls hindering deployment. I need DHCP & PXE to work properly, but it’s leaning DHCP. But it’s been so long since I’ve seen or done a fog server, which file/files need to be modified?
      Thanks.

      That’s it thanks guys. I used sudo add-apt-repository universe, and there were about 20 packages out there. Now, if I can remember how to finish this project off. It’s been 7 years since I built a fog server. lol

    • FOG v1.54 erroring on Ubuntu Server 18.04 LTS

      Hi all,
      I backed up all my previous images from FOG to a external USB drive, and cleanly installed Ubuntu Server 18.4 LTS and updated it with the necessities, as well as git.
      I followed the instructions from FOG Wiki for FOG v1.54, and started the install. I’m getting almost all the way through the installer until “Installing now everything is updated… Failed!” There is no firewall or advanced setup, everything is basic on my Ubuntu box. I previously had a Ubuntu 14.04 LTS install with FOG v1.2, but with UEFI/Windows 10, I now have to re-do our FOG server. I tried 16.04 and was sucessfull in installing FOG, but there was an issue with the NICs not working correctly. So I wiped the machine clean, and installed 18.04 LTS.

      From what I read from about 6 months ago, there was a work in progress to get a version working for this OS. Is there a solid, working version out there of FOG v1.54 for Ubuntu Server 18.04 LTS?

      Any assistance would be very appreciative.

      Thanks for the quick reply. That does sound like the culprit.

      Is it easy to upgrade my existing FOG v1.2 setup to the latest Fog v1.54 without loosing anything? And if it is, is it just simply downloading the newest fog and it will upgrade, and nothing would need changed?

    • Problems with Dell 3060 SFF Desktop PCs UEFI PXE boot with FOGv1.2

      Problems with Dell 3060 SFF Desktop PCs UEFI PXE boot with FOGv1.2. I am trying to create an image for Windows 10 Professional 64 bit on all my new 3060 Dell SFF (small form factor) PCs, all are enabled to UEFI, secure boot, and RAID on for starters. I’ve turned off Secure boot, and changed the drive setting to AHCI. However,. when using UEFI PXE IPv4 boot, it hangs up for 3-5 seconds then times out apparently, then opens the Dell BIOS/Support assist hardware checker then shuts down once it says no errors.
      I just looked at another post that FOG needs “refind.conf” and a couple settings need changed.
      I have no “refind.conf” file under
      //var/www/fog/service/ipxe/refind.conf
      My current setup is a stand-alone server with Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
      w/ FOG v1.2 with latest kernel (v4.12)
      Does this mean I need to re-install FOG? My Windows 7 images work flawlessly except these Windows 10 boxes. If I revert the new Windows 10 PCs to Legacy mode/boot, it will image but crashes the image. Any help would be very appreciated.

    • RE: Fog Exit Windows 10

      I have a new batch of 10 Dell 3060 SFF desktop PCs with WIndows 10 64 bit. I disabled Secure boot, but if I try to keep UEFI/non-legacy and boot to my stand-alone fog server that’s not behind a firewall, after 3-4 seconds PXE times out to the Dell System Support memory checker and then gives me a few boot options and turns the PC off. If I turn off UEFI and enable Legacy mode Rom’s, I can PXE boot into FOG and upload/download images, however, they won’t work with Legacy mode disabled (corrupted image), and even if I turn it back on, it quits talking to the FOG server entirely. And also, the PC I was able to image, I re-enabled UEFI boot mode, and the boot failed into windows. Any thoughts… I’m checking the drive type as mentioned in an above post.
