Sorry it took me so long to get back to you, I tried using the file you suggested and to no avail. The same problem occurs. I also used a different fog server and it had the same behavior. The computers randomly freeze loading pxe drivers.

@george1421

I tried different version of the kernel and they all do the same. I am willing to try different version of the PXE files

@wayne-workman Hello, sorry it took me so long to get back to you, Here are the pictures you requested.

@wayne-workman

I tried the kernel you suggested and it did not solve the problem. I also tried changing the pxe boot in the DHCP to these:

undionly.kpxe
ipxe.pxe
ipxe.kkpxe

These did not work with the suggested kernel.

Thanks

Thanks for the quick reply I will try to play with the kernels.

I am not sure how to proceed in troubleshooting this issue, any help will be appreciated. please see my configuration below, please let me know if you have additional questions.

Hi Tom,

I tried the installation with the suggested switches:

./installfog.sh -yX

The installation took a bit of time but completed. Thanks!

Client

Description

I used GIT to download the latest FOG Version 1.3.5.RC10 and it quits during installation:

• Downloading inits, kernels, and the fog client…Failed!

I rebooted the server and checked network connectivity and everything appears to be fine. Tried doing the upgrade several times but it continues to fail at that particular step.

@Tom-Elliott

Hi tom That fixed the problem, Thanks for all your help!!

Hi Joe,

I have tried the new client in our environment and it did not work. Sadly I ran out of time and kept the old client on our workstation since it seemed to work. Sadly I have not tried to troubleshoot it since, but I will be working on upgrading this summer since we are upgrading all of our workstations to Windows 10.

Thanks,
