Hello
I’m trying to get your script working, but can’t get it to work.

Does the bat to exe converter also pack in the oemkey.exe or do i have to copy the oemkey.exe to a directory in my image?

Thanks

@george1421 How can you set this up on server 2012 to automatically change?
Cause now i have to change sometimes, would be handy if it’s automatic

SVN Revision: 5956

Somehow it boots now. But had to try 5 times.
After i registered the host it wouldn’t boot again. Had to try again for 3 or 4 times.
Maybe it’s just the host. Wil try with other hosts to see if its the same.

Server

• FOG Version: * [new branch] working-RC-12 -> origin/working-RC-12
  Already up-to-date.

• OS: Ubuntu 14.04

Description

After updating to the newest branch computers can’t boot to the fog. boot proces gets stuck at boot.php

I’m using the c:\Drivers in windows10 without a problem.

Same problem here

Nieuwkerke, Belgium

Yep that would be great, I could build a small website with all the drivers. So other people could search the database to.
Only problem would be where to host it?
As it would generate some traffic :-s.

Maybe it’s an idea to add a database of drivers based on hardware id.
I followed the guide for the auto driver install and this works like a charm.
Only searching for the drivers is a lot of work. And i’m shure that i’ts work that has allready been done by someone else.

I now have 3 different types of hardware that i managed to select the drivers, but a simple website with an index of the drivers sorted by manufacture number and hardware id as needed for the Auto driver install would be verry handy.

Kind regard

What is the recommended way to create a hardware independed image?

I have read several option, one injects drivers through a script. Then i read things about wds (searched for a guide but don’t get what it does exactly and what the added value is)

Care to share how you guy’s make your hardware independed image?

Thanks

@goempie

IT WORKS

After the promt i just have to hit enter and then the hirens boots.

Thanks for the help.

I wil try to make a small guide on how to do it.

@Wayne-Workman

Ok getting there.

initrd http://${fog-ip}/fog/service/ipxe/iso/hbcd.iso ||
echo failed to load iso if it stops here
prompt
chain memdisk iso raw ||
echo failed to chain memdisk if it stops here
prompt
boot ||
echo failed to boot here if it stops here
prompt
goto MENU

When i boot i see that it downloads the iso then it comes to 100% and then i get the message

failed to load iso if it stops here

This is what i see when i go to /fog/service/ipxe/boot.php

So i don’t think tha the :hbcd in the begining is necessary.
But i deleted it and stil it doesn’t work.

:hirensbcd
:hbcd
#open iso with iso editor and remove pmagic to make it ligther
initrd ${fog-ip}/fog/iso/hbcd.iso
kernel memdisk iso raw
boot || goto failed
goto start

@Wayne-Workman said in Adding Hirens 15.2 boot cd to the boot menu:

:hbcd
#open iso with iso editor and remove pmagic to make it ligther
initrd ${fog-ip}/fog/iso/hbcd.iso
kernel memdisk iso raw
boot || goto failed
goto start

Yep i can see the iso in the browser and can download it.

@Wayne-Workman

Yes i saw it after i posted it.
This is what i have now
But still no champagne
:hbcd
#open iso with iso editor and remove pmagic to make it ligther
initrd ${fog-ip}/fog/iso/hbcd.iso
kernel memdisk iso raw || goto failed
boot || goto failed
goto start

@Wayne-Workman
I moved the hbcd.iso to the directory /var/www/fog/iso/hbcd.iso
Then i changed the menu entry, but no party

:hbcd
#open iso with iso editor and remove pmagic to make it ligther
set path /fog/iso
set nfs_path /var/www/fog/iso/15.04_64
initrd ${fog-ip}${path}/fog/iso/hbcd.iso
kernel ${fog-ip}$ kernel memdisk iso raw || goto failed
boot || goto failed
goto start

@Wayne-Workman

nope nothing to see here

@Wayne-Workman what is the path to the memdisk kernel?

@Wayne-Workman
:hbcd
#open iso with iso editor and remove pmagic to make it ligther
initrd ${boot-url}/images/hbcd152.iso
kernel ${boot-url}/memdisk iso raw || goto failed
boot || goto failed
goto start

In the above example they are pointing to the *.iso file itself.
So this means that they don’t mount the iso on the fog server?

@Wayne-Workman
There’s only one file in there
