Unfortunately, I’m still experiencing the same condition. I moved your kernel, did the chown and the icon changed (and got my hopes up) but it still just flickered when I clicked a menu on the PXE machine. I then copied the original kernel back and loaded it without issue…

Hi Tom,
Thank you for the prompt response!

I have actually tried all three kernels in your link (even though I’m on .32). I get the same result with all of them: when the custom kernel is in place, the PXE client just flickers when I select a menu item. Then if I copy the original kernel back, it works (except for the error).

Am I missing something?

Hello,
I’ll make a long story short: it has been a long journey from Symantec Ghost, to Clonezilla and finally FOG.

Disclaimer: I’m a Linux n00b but I’m doing my best.

So far, I really like the features of Fog and it looks like I’m almost there.

I have been trying to image a batch of Lenovo ultrabooks which do not have a built-in NIC. I’m using an ASIX AX88772B USB to Ethernet adapter and an Ubuntu 13.04 box running Fog.

I can PXE into the Fog PXE GUI but if I select any option that loads the Kernel I get stuck with the following error: “Error: Driver ‘mdio-gpio’ is already registered, aborting…”

I did some reading and it looks like I should have better luck with an alternative kernel. Unfortunately, I can’t seem to get any kernel to work except the one that installed with Fog. I have been downloading custom Fog Kernels (namely Tom Ellitott’s) and replacing the bzImage file in the tftpboot/fog/kernel directory.

If I use a custom kernel, the screen on the client just flickers when I choose a menu item (such as “Quick host registration and inventory”). If I then replace the custom kernel with the original, it will load and then give me the aforementioned error.

Any tips??

Thank you in advance!
