Hi there,

@george1421
I just noticed that on Linux Mint 19 and newer it’s not possible to boot anymore before you change the Boot Parameter! I got it going on after setting this:

imgargs vmlinuz root=/dev/nfs boot=casper netboot=nfs nfsroot=${fog-ip}:/var/www/html/iso/mint/ locale=de_DE.UTF-8 keyboard-configuration/layoutcode=de ip=dhcp toram -- || read void

Keep in mind, I got a different folder! But the parameter toram is damn important, otherwise it’s not able to mount /tmp and goes into emergency mode!

Maybe you want to update the wiki?

Okay, everyone, I found the reason why it wasn’t working. @george1421 and @Sebastian-Roth it was NOT because I used /image1. It was a complete dumb reason!

I set up the server, that every HTTP traffic gets redirected to HTTPS. My dumb mistake: I forgot to setup SSL on the NODE! So it looks like that because I used https://fog.xyz/fog it trys to reach the nodes via SSL as well! After setting up SSL on the node, Boom:

So sorry for directing you on a complete wrong path

@george1421 Ok, good thing is we got a programmer in our team that can php. I’ll talk with him about that and maybe we can contribute it too.

@george1421 Hi again,

sadly it still doesn’t work. Still with the issue, can’t retrieve server information. I’ll try now with a complete different PC on that. But is somewhere a cache that needs to be cleared?

Guys, I’ll maybe found out why it wasn’t working. I’m now confirming it with some changes I’ll make. Latest tomorrow I’ll write back what was wrong the whole time!

Year I read the article and now watched the video.

IIUC it only uses this for the images that I created and NOT the self generated Boot entrys. But thanks for all the help. My next step is now to find out how to configure how often it should be replicated. I’ll have a look at it
