    • RE: Deploy Travando/Pausando

      Englsh:

      I can’t tell what version of Linux you are using. We tried Ubuntu 12, that didn’t work. We then tried Ubuntu 11, that failed. Then we went to Ubuntu 10 and that worked fine for us with Fog .32 I would try Ubuntu 10 with Fog .32 and see how that goes. You could always put in a spare hard drive in to test it, and keep this started server hard drive out so you can always go back to where you left off…

      Portuguese:

      Eu não posso dizer qual a versão do Linux que você está usando. Nós tentamos Ubuntu 12, que não funcionou. Em seguida, tentou Ubuntu 11, que falhou. Depois fomos para o Ubuntu 10 e que funcionou muito bem para nós com névoa 0,32 Gostaria de experimentar o Ubuntu 10 com névoa 0,32 e ver como isso vai. Você pode sempre colocar em um disco rígido de reserva para testá-lo e manter este servidor iniciado o disco rígido para que você sempre pode voltar para onde você parou …

    • RE: [SOLVED] FOG .32 and Ubuntu Server 12.04

      Good luck! We couldnt get Fog to deploy an image properly on either Ubuntu 12.04, or 11.04. Using Ubuntu 10.04 with Fog 32 gave no deployment issues… Now on to figuring out why multicast fails partway through, and with unicast works just fine… X(

    • RE: FOG Newbie, help with MAC addresses please?

      I believe [URL=‘http://www.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/Bypass_Host_Registration’]THIS[/URL] is what you’re talking to Chad…

    • RE: FOG Newbie, help with MAC addresses please?

      I’m pretty new at this, and actually haven’t done a multicast yet, but this is how I think I would do it concerning your setup and how you want to use fog…

      Assuming you have your image on your server/laptop, you can then connect your small 8 PC network up. Get all the PCs hooked up, and have them boot to network+PXE. Spam a key (i usually hit space) and it will find and boot into the FOG screen. Do the full system inventory. When it asks for a PC name, you can either name it so its easier to identify, or leave it blank. If you leave it blank, its name in the fog host table will be its MAC address. Then tell it the image ID, and OS ID, and then skip the rest, and then select not to image now. It will auto restart the PC after sending its inventory information. At the BIOS screen/POST turn off the PC. After you’ve done this to all 8 PCs, you can then select them all in fog (host section, all hosts) and multicast the image to them as a task. (add them to a group). Then, after that, delete them all out of FOG and start the next group of 8 computers.

      This would probably be faster than individually finding and adding all the MAC address by hand…

      You also don’t have to multicast if your switch wont support it. If this is the case, just allow it to image on reboot, and dont skip the imagining.

    • RE: How-to: Create a universal windows XP image using mysysprep.exe and VM Ware

      Ive never syspreped before, but I noticed when my virtual machine rebooted and went through the sysprep boot it asked for a win xp pro disc. Is this normal? Or did I do something wrong?

      I also learned that there is an AVGPrep software that I should have ran before syspreping. It loses all of its activation after syspreping…

    • RE: Deploy Travando/Pausando

      Será que ela nunca diz “Error” em qualquer lugar na tela do PC que você está tentando implantar a?

      (Does it ever say “Error” anywhere on the PC screen you’re trying to deploy to?)

      “Deploy Locking / Pausing”

      "Hello I am using the FOG 12:32
      The server is running normal and I have done the upload image all blz.
      But at the time of deployment, cloning, and the server goes down, pausing to deploy. when the server returns the deployment continues. but the server is always falling.

      what can be wrong?"

      Sounds like its stuck in a loop trying to send the image, but is probably erroring out and then you get the “Will restart in 1 minute” prompt?? I would guess maybe a kernal change?

    • RE: Downgrading windows 7 to xp

      [quote=“chad-bisd, post: 4800, member: 18”]Where does it fail? Does it deploy successfully but not boot, or does it fail during the deploy. If it deploys but won’t boot, you might try to AHCI settings in the bios on the Win7 machines. More than likely, it is set for Win7, but not for WinXP.[/quote]

      I would also suggest checking this first.

      I know when I down graded a 2 new Dells that shipped with Win7 to XP I had to mess with the AHCI settings to get XP to boot, so I too would agree that you might want to try that as well. After I downgraded the one, I uploaded that image and then deployed it to the second, but it wouldn’t boot. I then remembered about the BIOS change and then it worked.

    • RE: How-to: Create a universal windows XP image using mysysprep.exe and VM Ware

      [quote=“ssx4life, post: 4754, member: 268”]As a friendly reminder (I made that snapin). That if you run it as a snapin you will want to flag it for a reboot.

      If you run the .exe as a stand alone and reboot it will also work (handy for a flash key)

      Again… oemscan.exe will ONLY work on XP home / pro / MCE2K5, and will ONLY auto activate if you have an SLP key on oem hardware

      Enjoy![/quote]

      Yeah, its real nice and keeps it simple, I’ve just been running it manually and restarting manually, haven’t felt like taking the time to automate it or anything yet.

      Does anybody know if I use the driverpacks.net software, and tell that to keep the drivers on the hard drive, can I just sysprep and upload the image and when it gets thrown on a new PC/hardware setup it will just go through all the drivers? I’m just curious since its pretty easy to make an XP install disc with most updates and drivers integrated right into the install.

    • RE: Windows XP dissimilar hardware

      Hi comprx,

      I don’t know if you’re still working on this, or if you’ve moved on, but I’m trying to work on something similar.
      I’ve been following [URL=‘http://countscomputercorner.blogspot.com/2010/02/deploy-windows-xp-pro-with-all-post-sp3.html’]THIS[/URL] tutorial for basic guidance for just creating a “super” install disc for XP Pro OEM.
      I basically use nlite to create an automated install file, integrate the service packs / hot fixes. Then after its done and at the “burn screen” I minimize it. I then use the driverpacks base to force all the drivers into the disc as well. I also make it keep all the drivers on the hard drive, even then ones that aren’t used. I then rip the disc to an ISO. This might be a pretty good way to go for a PC shop, except the automated install might be a problem. I also run the OEMScan.exe file located in [URL=‘http://fogproject.org/forum/threads/how-to-create-a-universal-windows-xp-image-using-mysysprep-exe-and-vm-ware.616/’]THIS[/URL] tutorial to activate my PC after XP is installed. I’m almost ready to complete the second tutorial to make a “golden image” of XP on fog, but I’m still tweaking the XP install.

      Hope this helps. -SMoRZ3
