@Reuban1219 said in Does FOG still support Windows XP Imaging?:

Other than Single Disk - Resizable option there is three other choices.
a) Multiple Partition Image - Single Disk(Not Resizable)
b)Multiple Partition Image - All Disks(Not Resizable)
c)Raw Image (Sector BY Sector,DD,Slow)
Which of these do I choose?

If you don’t need to deploy the image to a smaller size disk you wanna choose “Multiple Partition Image - Single Disk(Not Resizable)”. Check out the information in the wiki on this: https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php?title=Managing_FOG#Images

Btw, I have an additional question. Is it okay to capture and deploy image without doing sysprep? Or is it a must to do sysprep?

Sysprep is not needed in general. FOG doesn’t care if you sysprep or not. BUT Windows will need to be syspreped if you capture from one hardware model and deploy to another one being quite different. Good you bring up this point as I have not had that in mind. While I don’t think the hang on the blinking “_” can be caused by deploying to a different hardware as it’s very early in the boot process it’s very likely Windows will give you a blue screen later on in that case.

@Reuban1219 said in Need Guidance Other Than FOG Wiki page.:

Now, I have to figure out how to keep the ports open at all times for the switch.

It’s either spanning tree or some kind of ethernet energy saving or even a “security” feature.

@Reuban1219 said in Running Fog Server To Image Different Devices Without Internet (Using Switch):

I downloaded the MSI installer in my windows XP …

I am not exactly sure the fog-client was used on XP much. That was before I joined into working on the fog-client. Though I would think it should work.

But, it keeps giving error of installation ending prematurely.

Can you be more specific on what step it ends and what the error message is? If you don’t get an error back you should use logging as suggested by George. Open a cmd as Admin and run:

msiexec /i FOGService.msi /quiet USETRAY="1" HTTPS="0" WEBADDRESS="x.x.x.x" WEBROOT="/fog" ROOTLOG="1" /L*V c:\windows\temp\foginstalllog.txt

Put in the FOG server IP or hostname instead of x.x.x.x. Upload that log file to a file share and post a link here.
