@george1421 SIngle disk - SATA non-SSD.

@george1421 I finished setting up a completely new install of Ubuntu / Fog 1.2.0. I used SVN to upgrade to 6175. I kept the empty database and just registered the two hosts to test with.

I upload the image from the master to FOG fine. I received an error trying to deploy the image however:

No drive number passed (restoreALLEBRs)

@george1421 The upload from the master also failed:

No img part type passed (savePartitionTableAndBootLoaders)

@george1421 The fog compatibility test now works on the destination client however. I will try to upload the image from the master again and they deploy to the destination with the new inits in place.

@george1421 I did as you suggested and received a new error with the new inits:

No partition type passed (performRestore)

@george1421 I will try to work something out. Do you know where the procedure is to upgrade to the trunk version? I have not done that before.

@george1421
Sorry I did not reply to you properly before. I posted the information you requested.

In addition I found something else interesting. When I ran the Fog compatibility test on the destination client I received a similar error:

Error: Invalid partition table on /dev/sda – wrong signature b5f8

@george1421

Thank you for your quick response.

We have been using Fog for awhile but we have recently upgrade to 1.2.0 (new fresh OS and Fog install / restore fog data). I have been able to backup and restore to the SAME PC, but to my knowledge this is the first time we have attempted to restore to a different machine.

The backup image was created with the NEW version of Fog 1.2.0 using partclone.

This is a new hardware platform we are working with. The source and destination workstations are both Dell Optiplex XE2. The OS is Windows 7. They are both in BIOS mode.

We are having a problem sending an image to workstations. We are able the upload the image from the master to the fog server fine. When we try to download the image to additional clients no data appears to be send. The process completes in less than 5 seconds. The following error is displayed on the client during the download process:

Erasing current MBR/GPT Tables … EBR signature for logical partition invalid: read 0xB5F8, but should be 0xAA55
Error reading logical partitions! List may be truncated!

We are running Fog 1.2.0 on Ubuntu 14.04.3. I have found some other threads on a similar topic but none seem to be resolved.
