I’m having the same problem with Mageia 4 system. Attached image is what’s show up after deployed a computer. It only complaints about the swap partition UUID.

And before I upload the image, I’ve already changed the fstab file to use either the disk name /dev/sda5, or the label of the swap partition LABEL=SWAP, in both cases, I get the same result.

Any idea how to fix this?

Thanks,
Hongyun

By the way, it only complaints about the swap partition uuid doesn’t exist.

I have changed /boot/grub/menu.lst file and the /etc/fstab file to use /dev/sdax format instead of the uuid format, but after download the image, even when I downloaded it to the same computer, the system still won’t boot, it will goes to dracut mode.

Does anyone know how to fix this uuid problem? In the past, when I use Ubuntu or Scientific Linux, by changing menu.lst and the fstab file, everything will work. But for this Mageia system, I don’t know what’s going on.

I have changed the storage node to a subdirectory, and can successfully upload an image, but when I try to download the image, it couldn’t find the image file I just uploaded, so I have to move the image folder to the default /images folder again to make the download work.

Thanks,

Thanks for trying to help me. I can try the 0.33b version again. But do you know why when I patch 0.33b there is one error, is it critical? Please see my above post.

[quote=“Tom Elliott, post: 20194, member: 7271”]I’ll take a look at the fog 0.32 fog script and make the changes to it. The diff I gave you before is for 0.33[/quote]

If you could make it work on 0.32, it would be so wonderful! Thank you very much!

When I applied it to 0.33b here is the result:

Hi Tom,

Can I use this script under version 0.32? Honestly, I like 0.32 better than 0.33b

Thanks,
Hongyun

Thank you, Gilou and Tom! I wish I knew more about programming, and really hope I can do something to help, but it looks like my only hope will be waiting for you guys to come up with a working solution.

Hongyun

Hi Tom,
Have you ever used clonezilla? someone recommends that for me, but if I could make FOG work with ext4, I really don’t want to switch to something else.
Hongyun

[INDENT=1]So you mean the [FONT=Consolas]partclone.diff.txt file already included everything I need to use partclone?[/FONT][/INDENT]

One more question, do I need to have partclone installed on FOG server?

Now I get the same error without 000

mv: Can’t rename ‘/images/7071bc7b70bd/d1p1.img.000’: No such file or directory

But I found the mac address folder under /images/dev/

What about this line: mv ${imgpart}.000 ${imgpart} 2>/dev/null
change it as well?

Hi Tom,

I tried it with a clean install of FOG 0.33, but it couldn’t upload properly, only 32256 byte got uploaded to the server. When I tried to upload with debug mode, I got the following error messages:

mv: Can’t rename ‘/images/7071bc7b70bd/d1p1.img.000’: No such file or directory

Do you know what may be the problem?

Thanks,
Hongyun

Hi Tom,

Thank you so much for your reply. I will give it a try, hope it will fix my problem.

Hongyun

Tom,

How did you add it to init.gz file, would you mind to tell me how to do it?

Thanks,
Hongyun

[quote=“Gilou, post: 19988, member: 3221”]OK, here’s the patch, quick & dirty for those interested, it’s being worked on, and will certainly not work on a multicast environment. I’m still interested in being able to work on SVN, by the way.[/quote]

Hello,

Do you have any detail instructions on how to replace partimage with partclone? where to start?

Thank you for replying, but it’s not very clear in that post on how to use partclone, install it on FOG server or included it in bzImage file? Sorry, I’m not a programmer, really can’t understand the attached files in that post, would you mind to explain it in more detail for me?

Thanks!
