ok TFTP is not installed on Nodes does it need to be? but TFTP works on main server for file transfer testing etc.

tftp://x.x.x.x/default.ipxe… ok
http://x.x.x.x/fog/service/ipxe/boot.php… ok
/bzimage… No such file or directory (http:ipxe.org/2d0c613b)

When I had just my server up I could image. I have added 2 nodes to the network. They both had the same Ubuntu OS. My fog server and 2 nodes are all now on 3429. When I go to image a desktop or laptop now I get different errors.

When I do a Quick Image from PXE menu. I get a PXE-MOF…Exiting then black screen left it on for 20 mintues and nothing.

When I set it as a task or reboot to image I get a bzimage error

sweet that kkpxe did the trick somehow. I am getting everything connected and running now thanks for the help and good work with fog trunk versions

We have M73, M81 etc desktops. Our laptops are from the B560/B590 all the way to E550’s.

So the .kkpx is better for you on lenovos than the .kpxe?

Do I need to revert my kernel from 4.0.2 all the way back to 3.18.3?

Also When I do a quick image and select the OS it goes to a black blank screen with a flashing cursor. When I reboot to PXE I get a bzimage error. I have to go into the GUI and delete the task out. If i set an active task in the GUI to reimage it I get the same bzimage error. This is all so confusing and a mess. Fix one issue to bounce into another.

OK that svn update seems to have fixed me getting to image. The image went through but I get the blue screen of death after it starts windows when its done. Maybe I just have a bad image. I still get that same error that I listed above except now with new 3396 it goes through and images. I am re uploading an image from an actual computer this time, instead of a VM see if I get a good image that way.

no there is no proxy

no the bzimage was only an issue when I perform a registration and select yes to image I get the bzimage error. The above error I just posted is when I try to image from fog on a good image or so I thought. It fails out of the image task at that point then says it completed and restarts.

Then it just says task complete and reboots. Never images anything

I have registered host from PXE and the GUI. I uploaded a fresh image into the server. It see’s that image and you can see it in the GUI and command line. I am getting a file issue it happens to quick when I image I get all the way through to where it picks a node.

I get this
*Using Hard disk: /dev/sda
*Erasing Current MBR/GPI Tables…Done
awk: fatal: cannot open file '/images/WIN732bbaseimage/d1.minimum.par
r reading (No such file or directory)
Done

Seemed like from all the installs no one had this many problems getting pxe to boot. So when I register and schedule the host to image it gives me that bzimage error. But all the new computers will register fine but imaging won’t happen because of this error.

I already am svn at 3395. I can get hosts to register once. Now when I go back into the pxe boot I get a bzimage error could not boot etc.

would it hurt to go ahead and go into the trunk versions using svn

everything we have are lenovo’s. We get to the PXE menu then it takes about a minute or 2 after for the black screen to go away into the fog prompt.

I used a different desktop, and it takes a while to boot but it does if I wait longer. My old server was .32 fog and it was never this slow to load up. But hey its working somewhat now just slow. Thanks for the help

The desktops and laptops all get to the pxe screen then get the init.xz ok and black blank screen nothing else. VM is fine now

I have an update, my VM desktops seem to be working fine now with fog. They go through to full host registration. I am going to try and upload images now. Why does fog not work from physical desktops though?

I mean I followed 3 different how to install fog tutorials from 3 different people who posted them on the web.

I ran the re-install of fog. Now when I perform anything from the PXE boot menu I get a brief init.xz message then black screen still. I just re-did 2 more spare servers and a VM 2 with ubuntu 12.04 and one with ubuntu 14.04.2. Ran the fog installs from 3 different people which were all the same mostly. Still nothing.
