fail to add MMCONFIG information
MMCONFIG is not MMC! AFAIK this error is unrelated. See here: http://lwn.net/Articles/263288/
Don’t you see anything about mmcblk in dmesg? Like here: https://gist.github.com/thomasdziedzic/01482f33aba5971845b3
Booting ISO from iPXE is possible. Search the forums for “ISO” and you should find a lot of information about it.
To me it seams like shrinking btrfs is not much trouble. Although I have to admit that I’ve never ever tried this myself.
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E37670_01/E37355/html/ol_use_case2_btrfs.html and various other sites on the net.
But don’t put any effort into this as long as no one is really asking for this!
We probably need to tune scripts as well to make devicenames like /dev/mmcblkX work but lets see if the new kernel is bringing up those first. :-)
Welcome to the world of FOG!
Your question about sysprep/fogprep and different models seams to be to complex to be answered in general. Here are some hints and ideas:
We run FOG (Win7/10 clients) without sysprep or fogprep perfectly. It always depends on what you want to have. Read up on what sysprep is actually used for to see if it is of help in your case!
As far as I can see there is no MMC support compiled into the current FOG kernel. I guess you are the first one asking :-)
See here: http://sourceforge.net/p/freeghost/code/HEAD/tree/trunk/kernel/TomElliott.config.64
...
# CONFIG_MMC is not set
...
I guess Tom will happily add MMC support and compile a new kernel in the next few days…
How did you configure network settings for your VMs? host-only, bridged, …?
Is FOG running as a VM too or on the host system? If you are keen enough try capturing the network traffic using wireshark while the loop is going on. Share the PCAP file and we might be able to find the cause.
Which version of FOG do you use, by the way? Tom said he fixed the proc-errors. Did you update to the latest version and try again? Do you still see the same errors?
Tom:
I know the resizable option is not possible, right now, for the btrfs filesystem type
Why is this? Can we fix it?
We might be able to help you make FOG run with you Lenovos but you’ll have to provide more information first.
What kind of Lenovo is it? Model number? or at least the exact name/number and model of the network card used in those machines?
And please provide more information about what is problem or error you see? We cannot help you if we don’t know what exactly is going wrong!
Which topic did you read? URL?
Sounds like we’ve had this for quite some time: https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/4580/add-btrfs-support
I never had the time to test BTRFS but to me it sounds as if it is broken. Anyone ever had this working?
Thanks for the screenshot. Looks like there is something major going wrong because /proc/cpuinfo is also missing… Sounds like the proc filesystem is not working on your machine. Weird! Do you see other errors before that??
