I’ve done a new installation of the ubuntu 16.04 with default partition-table (ext4+swap) and it seems it is a hardware+kernel problem.
The computer is a Fujitsu Q556 with skylake chipset and SSD Drive. I will try do install other kernels and hope the problem dissapear.
Any other solutions?

Hello guys,
by uploading an 16.06 image with this partition table:

# <file system> <mount point>   <type>  <options>       <dump>  <pass>
# / was on /dev/sda3 during installation
UUID=dfa3bf1a-9ca1-4fc4-863f-72815db61539 /               btrfs   defaults,discard,relatime,subvol=@ 0       1
# /boot was on /dev/sda1 during installation
UUID=0a46a7fe-23c2-4e4c-a76a-7d2410311a25 /boot           ext4    defaults        0       2
# /home was on /dev/sda5 during installation
UUID=dfa3bf1a-9ca1-4fc4-863f-72815db61539 /home           btrfs   defaults,discard,relatime,subvol=@home 0       2
# /opt was on /dev/sda6 during installation
UUID=719313d4-5d42-44e7-8cda-87c492b92ae6 /opt            btrfs   defaults,discard        0       2
# swap was on /dev/sda2 during installation
UUID=c5c9a2e6-885a-4ed1-aeb6-909043dae122 none            swap    sw              0       0

i get the above after uploading the first partition.

Fog is finishing the job though. But if I put the image on onother computer, ubuntu starts with busybox.

I was not able to find any solution, so I hope someone can help. Thanks

Perfect now! Installer and configs are all correct. From my side the problem is solved. Thanks!

@Wayne-Workman I really don’t want to dissapoint you
I’ve updated now to the svn 6755 and still get the ! ! ! No router address found ! ! ! and ! ! ! No dns address found ! ! !
How I said before - the setup is complete and everything seems to work. I only get these two “warnings”

Here is my .fogsettings:

And this is the dhcpd.conf:

...

# For systems with two or more ethernet devices.
# subnet 136.165.0.0 netmask 255.255.0.0 {}
subnet 192.168.94.0 netmask 255.255.255.0{
    option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
    range dynamic-bootp 192.168.94.60 192.168.94.99;
    default-lease-time 21600;

    option routers 192.168.94.1;
    option domain-name-servers 192.168.94.1;
...

@Wayne-Workman
yes in both files are the addresses set correctly

Now it’s better - I still get the Info

 * Setting up storage..........................................OK
 * Setting up and starting DHCP Server......................... !!! No router address found !!!
 !!! No dns address found !!!
OK
 * Setting up and starting TFTP and PXE Servers................OK

but the script continues and everything seems to be ok.

@Wayne-Workman

sorry but I completly removed FOG and try to install it again but it doesn’t work.
I get this error:

* Setting up and starting DHCP Server.........................../lib/common/functions.sh: line 186: addr:192: syntax error in expression (error token is ":192")
../lib/common/functions.sh: line 288: let: octet4+=: syntax error: operand expected (error token is "+=")
 !!! No router address found !!!
 !!! No dns address found !!!
Failed!

Thanks

How can I reset the trunk folder?
Thanks

@Sebastian-Roth I mean the lines you told me in .fogsettings :

routeraddress="192.168.94.1";
...
dnsaddress="192.168.94.1";

@Wayne-Workman
The installer give me the same error and say

 !!! No router address found !!!
 !!! No dns address found !!!

My .fogsettings file is this now:

## Created by the FOG Installer

ipaddress="192.168.94.111";

noTftpBuild=''
notpxedefaultfile=''
sslpath='/opt/fog/snapins/ssl/'

And when I start the installer everything seems ok because both entries are listed correctly:

...
 * DHCP router Address: 192.168.94.1
 * DHCP DNS Address: 192.168.94.1

Thanks

@Sebastian-Roth thanks - I tried that but it is still showing me the error.
Setting up and starting DHCP Server…/lib/common/functions.sh: line 186: addr:192: syntax error in expression (error token is “:192”)
Failed!
I changed the lines and there are now only the IP-addresses

I didn’t realise that the Verision of FOG in the /opt/fog/.fogsettings ist still 6476. The current version I’m using is 6651.
Maybe beacause of the old options in .fogsettings FOG is not configuring correctly.
Can someone show me how the current .fogsettings file has to look like?

Here is my current:

Hello guys,

while updating the snv I get this error:
Setting up and starting DHCP Server … /lib/common/functions.sh: line 186: addr:192: syntax error in expression (error token is “:192”) Failed!

in the dhcpd.conf the installer stops to create the netmask ip address and it looks like this:
subnet netmask 255.255.255.0{
option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;

@Sebastian-Roth @Tom-Elliott
After an update to the current subverion it’s working again. Thanks.

@Tom-Elliott @Wayne-Workman 0_1455880449753_d1.zip
The last version I tried with was 6321.
The images were made with an older version of FOG - 32##. Could this be a problem? And all the images were always made with the option “Multiple Partion -single disk”

I have the same issue with all images on the fog server.
If i try to deploy them, I got the error
Restoring Partition Tables (GPT) … du: cannot access ‘/images/*****/d1.grub.mbr : No such file or directory
and so on…

This file doesn’t exist in the images and now I’m not able to download the images. Still waiting for a fix or solution.

@Tom-Elliott
I have to correct - sometimes it works and sometimes not. So it’s stilll not working. Will wait and test.

I upgraded to the latest trunk and now It’s working if I uncheck the FOG_USE_SLOPPY_NAME_LOOKUPS.
I will try to understand what has been done
Thanks !

After upgrading to the latest trunk (5927) I have often have to type in the TFTP address manually before loading the fog menu.
I checked already all settings and the service is running. The address in /tftpboot/default.ipxe is right in my opinion and I didn’t change anything.
Sometimes it boots normally and I don’t have to type in anything.
Is there something I need to check?

@Wayne-Workman i know that FOG is not a “run when needed” solution but in my case with the access point I need this for a short time. If I know why they hang in boot and can solve that, FOG will run normally.
So can someone tell me how to stop FOG without removing it?

@Tom-Elliott Thanks, i will try the settings with the Menu.

Now I already cloned about 400 Ubuntu computers and everything went fine.
In 2 of our network Installations, which are connected via vpn and are a couple miles away from my office, we have some computers connected with access points (2 different models) one model doesn’t make any problems and talking with the FOG server at every boot, take the jobs if there any. The other access point model get a ip address but stops somewhere in the boot sequnce.
If the FOG server is off, everything is fine. Stopping the dhcp-server, vsftpd, tftpd-hpa but they still stop to boot somewhere. I am not able to get there now to see what happens but the fact is, that if the FOG server is down, the computer are booting.

That’s the reason why I’m asking which services I can stop on the FOG server to let the computers start properly and investigate to problem later. Shutting down the FOG server is possible because the is running another software.

Thanks to all
