i see you already have, what is your image win 7/xp? also whats your image settings within fog web ui ?

yeah I have reported it already in the FOG DEVELOPER forum that win7 deployments don’t work. Take a look in there and any other bugs you come across be sure to post them

[FONT=Century Schoolbook L][SIZE=3]Not sure if you know about Virtualbox if you do great, if not reply if you need help [IMG]http://fogproject.org/forum/styles/default/xenforo/clear.png[/IMG][/SIZE][/FONT]

[FONT=Century Schoolbook L][SIZE=3]Highly recommend Virtualbox because it’s free, simple and it lets you take snapshots. [/SIZE][/FONT]

[FONT=Century Schoolbook L][SIZE=3]2. defrag C drive[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Century Schoolbook L][SIZE=3]3. From Command Promt run: chkdsk /f[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Century Schoolbook L][SIZE=3]4. just before you run sysprep you take a snapshot using virtualbox[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Century Schoolbook L][SIZE=3]5. run FOG PREP,[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Century Schoolbook L][SIZE=3]6. Sysprep machine and upload. (also suggest you use an unattended xml file) but for now whilst testing[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Century Schoolbook L][SIZE=3]from command promt run : sysprep /generalize /oobe /shutdown[/SIZE][/FONT]

[FONT=Century Schoolbook L][SIZE=3]Once uploaded you just undo the snapshot and your ready to modify, update and create a new Image.[/SIZE][/FONT]

[FONT=Century Schoolbook L][SIZE=3]You can also export your image at any snapshot point to backup as a single file. Virtualbox runs on windows and Linux.[/SIZE][/FONT]

[quote=“jmwalton, post: 3877, member: 697”]have you had any issues with memory, it seems like I have a memory leak! when we do a group task it goes from like 172 m of ram to like 3gb in a matter of minutes! whats wrong! then the task just drops and all connections to the server are lost. should I just backup fog and start fresh with ubuntu 10.04?
thanks[/quote]

Is your fog server fully updated?

[quote=“Robin Commander, post: 3879, member: 64”]Thank you Falko, I was trying to use a different (per host) kernel last week and was scratching my head not realising that a full path to the new kernel was required… appreciated :-)[/quote]
No worries, glad you got it working

cool

localhost

Have you tried ’quick host’ , what kernel are you using? And are there any other errors or does the process just stop

Cheers sounds good

Oh cool, can you email it.

Appreciate the help

as far as I know the other tech has tried that, I will double check with one on wednesday when I get in,

let me know how you get on

yeah but i don’t know how, my boss doesn’t now password is, previous tech doesn’t know. we have tried all passwords we use. have contacted dell and the reseller they used to no joy. is there another way?

okay, was sure i left a follow up comment.

anyways, for the bunch of laptops that I am unable to network boot, I have been booting them up with clonezilla and selecting Boot Via ipxe, works great.

thanks for comments

not sure how remotely possible it is, but is there any chance in the future of having the Multicast Imaging logged so we could fire or reports like unicast logs?

login in via web access or ssh/serial cable to configure that setting i believe

also check the two posts below:

After installing FOG I Installed [URL=‘http://webmin.com/’]Webadmin[/URL], I logged into the mysql section created a new user (fogadmin) and password, giving this account full permission. I then edited the MYSQL info in /var/www/fog/commons/config.php + /opt/fog/service/etc/config.php. to match.

also i see that you had trouble with wake-on-lan

In FOG Web UI go to the OTHER INFORMATION page, on the right hand side go to FOG SETTINGS, then scroll down to General Settings (about 2/3 of the way down) under this you will then see some FOG_WOL settings,

check that FOG_WOL_HOST is set to the static IP that you gave your FOG Server.

check that FOG_WOL_Interface is set to the network interface you are using. Usually eth0

yes full pathname is required for extra kernels,

your welcome, please like my comments if you find them helpful

nope, you need to add it like this… Host Kernel: fog/kernel/<name_of_kernel>
all those with blank fields will default to the kernel you have set as bzImage

Note: In the screenshot below the kernel is called acer-aspire

[quote=“Hongyun, post: 3667, member: 1117”]then is 0.33 already released? where can I download it?[/quote]

it is not released, a beta version is though. I encourage you to install it on a test machine or in virtualbox maybe and provide feedback in the dev forums
