Nice, another cool mod.
Will have to check out

Nice share, will have to test this out.
What is the advantage of using gpxe?

[quote=“Kevin, post: 10328, member: 3”]The guide helped a lot. Thank you for it. Since I use Ubuntu, things were in different places, but I was able to get it figured out. I can post the changes here if you’d like. I was able to image some VM’s and boot ISO’s with it, so i’m pretty happy. The one thing i’m not sure of though is that when I select an item to boot, whether is be an image or an ISO, the screen doesn’t clear. So I can still see the background and the items loading on the bottom. This could be because of it being in a VM, but i’m not sure. Any ideas? I loaded it via TFTP this time so I could take the screenshot, but it started doing this when it boot with the gpxelinux. I mean, an easy work around would be to make the screen all black, but curious as to why that’s happening.[IMG]http://i1066.photobucket.com/albums/u416/kgaudio2/FOG_zps3de63507.jpg[/IMG][/quote]
please post you Ubuntu changes, would be interested. Or make a wiki page

if you do want to try the current 0.33 beta with windows 8 (and by all means do test it and provide feedback for the devs) you must use sysprep.

can you not build a new install with 0.25 import old database and then upgrade that to 0.32?

ah I see, makes sense.

in comparison we are a tiny school lol and have around 500 machines, at least 6 different types of hardware but I still only use one image.

okay, what is the recommended way to bring my hosts across? ie moving to a new ubuntu server as well as upgrading to 0.33.
Build the new server as 0.32, import from older 0.32 server, then upgrade the newer server to 0.33

note: I am aware 0.33 is in beta, just speaking on testing terms

damn that’s a lot of images!! why so many may I ask??

Currently I only manage a few, well only deploy one image really to all our pcs/laptops.

using SVN 898 I have also been unable to import my sql host file from my production 0.32 box, anyone able to test importing??

a dev will have to chime in for that, but for me its not even an issue. as i always use sysprep

guessing its due to the changes they made as 0.32 was unable to clone W8

[quote=“falko, post: 9221, member: 48”]just to double check, when I set up my FOG 0.33 test vm, all I need to do is Import the Host Inventory cvs from my FOG 0.32 box? Following the format provided from the Web Interface cvs ‘Import example’ sheet?[/quote]
Feedback, though I am guessing the DEVs are aware already. using the latest svn: 898 the above import attempt does not work.

error [CODE]FOG DEBUG: FOGPageManager: Class: ReportManagementPage, Method: upload, Error: Method not found in class, defaulting to index()[/CODE]

[quote=“Mark Playford, post: 9495, member: 498”]Thanks for that. That is a great help. I’ll update on the results[/quote]

how did it go??

I haven’t look at the 0.33 code in a while so I wasn’t sure. Hence the post

You are referring to the edit of [I]man.hostexists.php [/I]that is made. this is to edit [I][SIZE=12px]auto.register.php ii[/SIZE][/I][SIZE=12px]n a similar fashion for when the boot menu option of Quick Host Registration and Inventory is used on a pc that is already in the database.[/SIZE]

Can this be put into the FOG 0.33 Code, It’s to change (when registering a pc that already exists)
it from saying Host Exists to the actual hostname registered in FOG.

i haven’t tested this but can’t see why it wouldn’t work :)[/quote]

Thanks

Thank you!! This works perfectly using FOG 0.32. This is so handy.

I would love to see this put into 0.33 code, I know the above patch has been (not sure if this part has).

Thanks again to everyone in thread
