    • RE: Get Hard disk fails on UEFI based system

      @george1421 So, I’m doing a brand new install to start afresh. I’ll need to do some work I assume to get on 1.5.2?

    • RE: Get Hard disk fails on UEFI based system

      @george1421 Ok… how does one install to a certain version? I’d used git on the last one to update to current, but I’m not sure how to get 1.5.2 installed and then switch to the working branch? I’ll look on the forums but if you can point me in the right direction to get this installed, then 1.5.3 will be a simple upgrade.

      @george1421 Any idea when 1.5.3 will be released?

    • RE: Get Hard disk fails on UEFI based system

      Would it be a good idea to update FOG? I know you all have made TONS of improvements from the version I’m on. However, it doesn’t like a FOG issue per se but a UEFI issue. So, the process I would take to image is as follows:

      Machine comes in RAID ON
      Prep machine as I want it
      Start a Capture task for the host
      sysprep, then on reboot change to AHCI, Legacy mode and capture
      After that, capture image
      Deploy or just reboot
      Before booting up, change back to RAID ON

      ?? Does that sound like the right process?

    • RE: Get Hard disk fails on UEFI based system

      @george1421 I should be able to use any .efi file, correct? OR should it be a specific efi file? Right now I think I’m using a hacked together one from @Tom ages ago so I will most likely be upgrading FOG shortly.

      @george1421 That is the process I was looking for. I’ll attempt that and let you know. Thanks @george1421 !!

    • RE: Get Hard disk fails on UEFI based system

      Switched to RAID on and got an “inaccessible boot device” interestingly enough. This is a latitude 7490 from factory with a few tweaks and then me trying to upload to be able to deploy. I’m fine if I have to update FOG, that’s not a problem but wondering if this can be avoided in the future or what process I should take to capture and deploy with this UEFI/linux issue?

    • RE: Get Hard disk fails on UEFI based system

      So,

      Windows just booted up and I got the famous “windows cannot complete the installation, please reinstall” or some such. Thoughts? Would switching back to Raid On fix this issue and allow windows to boot properly?

    • RE: Get Hard disk fails on UEFI based system

      @george1421 Very interesting. I just switched to legacy and captured the “master sysprepd” image as it were. BEFORE booting into the os, I changed from RAID-ON to AHCI. I’ll let you know what happens in a few minutes as I suspected the RAID-on vs AHCI deal. Thanks.

    • Get Hard disk fails on UEFI based system

      Hey all,

      Using FOG 1.4.0 RC-8. I know, I know it’s outdated. However, I can’t get a 1709 UEFI image to capture, FOG can’t find the disk. I can however, do so on Legacy but wondering if I should be able to do so on UEFI, or if I have to use the Legacy boot option. Let me know what I can do to troubleshoot. Thanks.

    • RE: Some laptops cannot get past "Starting Windows"

      Changing from RAID on in BIOS to AHCI fixed this issue for me. Thanks so much for the tip @FoSTerCyber !!

      @george1421 thank you, I will certainly look into that on the Dell website, and post my findings. Appreciate it.

    • RE: Some laptops cannot get past "Starting Windows"

      I also am seeing this. Here is the hardware:

      Dell Optiplex 9020, Optiplex 7040 – Gets to the Window of cannot start windows, please reinstall

      Any laptop I try the image on it works fine, this is windows 1607. Laptops are as follows:
      Dell Latitude 7440, 7450, 7470
      Also works on older models in our environment. I’m happy to do some debugging per any direction. We are using a sysprep’d image. It seems to only happen after I sysprep and then when it tries to boot on the desktops it struggles with finishing the windows install.

    • RE: Initial slow load in FOG WEB UI.

      @Tom-Elliott Tom,

      How “snappy” should the web UI be? What factors go into that? Obviously reporting back from the host, but what other things?

    • RE: Initial slow load in FOG WEB UI.

      @Tom-Elliott So it’s not the imaging itself its the web UI. Imaging is very quick. I’m only noticing the slowness in the web UI when trying to first load things. After that, it works splendidly.
