@george1421 result!!!

i bought a HP NIC as i have a HP laptop and it works

this one if anyone is inteerested

https://www.amazon.co.uk/HP-N7P47AA-Network-DesignJet-Adapters-Black/dp/B01618WGMY?th=1

as literally star tech, ugreen, tp link, realtek or asix chipsets didnt work

@george1421 ahh ok thanks george, makes sense, so basically the usb nic needs to support the laptop, nothing to do with fog even tho ive updated the kernel via this to the latest 6.6.49

https://docs.fogproject.org/en/stable/reference/manual_kernel_upgrade.html

is there a way to update fog with the latest NIC drivers, so it knows about the usb ethernet adapter?

hi all,

now that the laptops that we get supplied by our vendor, dont come with a built in NIC so we have to get USB ethernet dongles, what ones please support fog

ive tried the ugreens here and they dont work

what makes it compatible with pxe boot, is it the chipset or is it on the fog server, it needs to support it?

thanks,

@AlexPDX @Sebastian-Roth it was something simple in the end

BIOS > advanced > system options

i turned off/unticked - configure storage controller for VMD

basically its there version of RAID, untick it and its AHCI

Sorry taken ages to reply, just busy this week at work

It’s fog v1.5.10 and single disk resizable

As said I can deploy image fine on other machines, just not this dam hp z2 g9

Hi all,

So I’ve deployed a windows 10 image to a hp z2 g9 pc, it’s written the image to the disk, as I saw it doing the part clone process but when it succefully completed, it then rebooted and loaded up windows, once it rebooted to load windows, I have a blue screen of death with a stop code

inaccessible boot device

I have deployed the same image to a VM and a hp laptop with success, so maybe it’s something to do with this pc

Thanks,
Rob

case closed, all good in da hood

it took ages compiling the ipxe binarys but now its been succesfully updated

thanks @Tom-Elliott @Sebastian-Roth

@Sebastian-Roth @Tom-Elliott ok i re ran the installer multiple times and its got past that stage now, its getting stuck at this stage now

Compiling iPXE binaries trusting your SSL certificate…

@Sebastian-Roth @Tom-Elliott got a problem

Downloading kernel, init and fog-client binaries… * Could not download init_32.xz properly
[root@lon-c-fog10 bin]#

@robertkwild lovely i wget the new file and it found my fog install and its now upgrading it

@Tom-Elliott when i do the git method, do i need to first cd to my fog base installation dir

rather than the tar i just can install it and it will persume see ive already got a fog installation and just update it

hi all,

yes i know i want to update on centos 7, i know its dead but how do i update from 1.5.9 to the new one 1.5.10

is it just the case of installing it again and it will know its already installed and will just update it

thanks,
rob

@tom-elliott said in deploy image oobe issue:

mmcblk

lets say if one drive is partitioned into 2 partitions will it blow all partitions away and deploy image on whole disk?

@tom-elliott ahhhh yes, how stupid of me, should had thought of that LOL, thanks Tom

hi all,

got a weird one, on one laptop i deploy my image to, normally after partclone deploys the image to the disk, i get the oobe messages ie create new user, new password blah blah

but this laptop it looks like it hasnt blown away the hard drive and over written it with the deployed image one as instead of the oobe messages i get a message to enter in my capital one o365 username

ive never had problems before with this image on my fog server

and when i was looking at when fog deployed the image to the new laptop i saw no errors ie saying failed to deploy image etc

thanks,
rob

great thanks @george1421 i understand now, basically to do this right, you need to sysprep using an unattended xml file which i dont do, so best case scenario is i can just leave the drivers there and install once im on the desktop,

thanks again george

@george1421 ok i feel this won’t work for me as when I captured the image I ran a sysprep without an unattended answer file, so I fear I’m going to have to run the sysprep again this time specifying an answer file

As how do I get Windows or fog to run the script after my oobe generalise

i mean this script

SetupComplete.cmd

pnputil.exe /add-driver “C:\Drivers*.inf” /subdirs /install

@george1421 is there any way to auto call that batch file after the oobe generalise has finished

bear in mind im not using an unattended.xml answer file

Ok I save it here

%WINDIR%\Setup\Scripts\SetupComplete.cmd

In that setup complete CMD it’s

pnputil.exe /add-driver “C:\Drivers*.inf” /subdirs /install

But how do I get fog to dump the script in there in the first place

@george1421 So make a batch file when I’m in the windows desktop after the oobe generalise stage, call it

setupcomplete.cmd

And put

pnputil.exe /add-driver “C:\Drivers*.inf” /subdirs /install

Or I could just run that command instead
