@wayne-workman Nothing is wrong with Debian. I use UbuntuStudio16.04 as my FOG server OS at my work. I was just asking the question to see if it would work for my home setup.

Thanks,
Reuben

@reub_rester Depends on what is acting as a DNS server.

I doubt your fog server is acting as a DNS server, because if it was you would know about it.

You need to create an A record on whatever is doing DNS for your environment.

@reub_rester Please take a look at this thread: https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/5732/dell-venue-8-pro-imaging-emmc and give it a shot.

I’m about to run back to the future or forward to the past

On my current Fog server, Ubuntu 12.04 and Fog 1.2.0, I updated the bzImage files and saw that there are downloads for the the init files as well. Are we supposed to update the init files? If so, how? If not, why is there an option to download them?

Thanks,
Reub

To resolve my problem I had to uninstall and re-install FOG.

I know that adding a user account and using it for FOG shouldn’t of caused this problem. Could running two different download task cause this problem?

This might help you. [url]http://fogproject.org/forum/threads/ipxe-advanced-menu-or-memdisk-problem.10544/[/url]

When you Create A New Image within the Image Management, set image type to Multiple Partition Image - Single Disk (Not Resizable). This is my unattend.xml for Windows 7 Professional x86 and it does work with Dell Factory partition setup. What I did is registered the computer with the FOG server, booted the Dell factory install in win7, installed all the software I needed, put the unattend.xml in the C:\windows\system32\sysprep folder, syspreped, and started the image upload process.
