that one doesn’t work either. It gives a error about esas2r driver will not be loaded because not ATTO esas2r devices were found
Can someone create a kernel that will work with the dell e7440 or if a kernel exist where can i get it?
[quote=“Rick F, post: 19811, member: 18439”]Here’s a side tip for those Latitude 10’s… the dock can only support two USB devices at a time. This machine SUCKS.
I’ve also seen that in my case anyway, the only USB port that sees a USB device (pre-windows) is the front dock USB. So, how do you put the keyboard in the front USB to boot to the BIOS, and choose the flash drive (which also has to be in the front port)??? Well, to free up a USB port, pressing the Volume UP button on the side of the tablet, and I mean pressing it rapidly non-stop, is the same as hitting F12 on your keyboard. That’ll get you to BIOS and you can then see your flash drive which is in the front port. All this, providing that its a working bootable flash drive. As I’ve said, my OS boots up fine through the flash, but not Clonezilla. Hope this helps.[/quote]
It was rather difficult to get someone that was technical at dell to give me an answer on this but yes pxe booting is not supported on those Latitude 10’s. In fact those Latitude 10’s are discontinued now, and have been replaced with the venue 8 & 11 pro which is suppose to support pxe booting.

what’s the largest snap-in you have deployed?
I tested your kernel since i had to go back into the lab, your kernel does work also on the 9020AIO.
I downloaded your kernel and i was about to upload it to my fogserver & i noticed that i had a kernel in my directory that was about 12mb. I remembered that i downloaded that a few months back but never tried it, i tried that kernel and it worked. I think that zip file must have gotten corrupt at some point, i placed the kernel388core and my default bzImage file on the following location [url]https://skydrive.live.com/?cid=7C7B033E0442FC0E&id=7C7B033E0442FC0E!110[/url]
[quote=“andyroo54, post: 17752, member: 267”]I’m not really sure I understand this.
Snapins work flawlessly for me. They are without doubt one of the best features of FOG in my opinion. If there was a seperate distrubtion where all it did was deploy snapins to clients I would be happy.
Can you explain what you mean by ‘better way’?

The deployment method is fine my comment is geared towards the encapsulation apps e.g (InstallRite & SFXMaker)
[quote=“The Dealman, post: 17864, member: 53”]I will gather that info tomorrow and post the results[/quote]
Here is the link to my current kernel [url]https://skydrive.live.com/?cid=7C7B033E0442FC0E&id=7C7B033E0442FC0E!110[/url] click on the bzImage zip to download. If you are able to create a kernel for this model would it be possible to merge your findings with the kernel i have?
[quote=“Tom Elliott, post: 17862, member: 7271”]My guess is it’s the drivers for the Hard-drive within the kernel. Do you know what kind of Hard drive (and/or) controller the device has?
Have you tried other kernels?
I have one, but it’s based on core which is more or less what the default kernel is built off to my knowledge.
You can try mine, but I don’t think it will work. If you can give me the type of drive and controller for the drive I can try to build a kernel for you.
[url]https://mastacontrola.com/fogboot/kernel/bzImage[/url] is the one I’ve already built. If you get me the info I’ll build and give you the alternate link.[/quote]
I attached a zip, inside are 2 files that will show the hardware inventory. Let me know if you need anything else

I ordered about 40 of the optiplex 9010’s but dell notified me that they were discontinuing that model
[COLOR=#1f497d]“The 9010 AIO is EOL…… please take a look at the 3011 AIO and the 9020 AIO” [/COLOR]model so i choose the 9020 thinking it wouldn’t be to far off in the specs. The 9010’s took my image fine but the 9020’s give me a error upon registration “Hard Disk not found”
Anyone have any ideas?
[quote=“Jaymes Driver, post: 17771, member: 3582”]NBP is a Network Boot strap Program.
Your pxelinux.0 is a NBP file.
Can you try to load the menu with a gPXE disc?
In my particular case, only part of the pxelinux.0 file was being received, I had to set up the DNSMasq in order to properly load my pxe menu.[/quote]
I never made one before but i can give it a shot
See the attached screen shot, for some reason it seems to act normal now but still can’t get to the fog server menu. As you will see in the screen shot it pull an ip now and it can see the fogserver i’m not sure what a NBP file is, does anyone now what that is?

[quote=“chad-bisd, post: 16733, member: 18”]You are looking for the break down in pxe boot process. Is it failing on the dhcp request or when it tries to get the default boot menu file via tftp.[/quote]
My guess would be it’s failing on dhcp request since it never gets to the fog menu at all. I will see if i can get that wireshark done in the morning though, are you proficient at reading wireshark logs? I can post the results after i’m done
[quote=“chad-bisd, post: 16731, member: 18”]At this point I would use WireShark and mirror the port so I could watch the network traffic between the DHCP/TFTP server(s) and the tablet. You’ll want to filter to dhcp and tftp protocols.[/quote]
hmm…i will have try this next week. What am i looking for though? It pulls an ip when windows is running, to me it just seems like some sort of discrepancy between the dock pxe boot process and the fog server.
[quote=“chad-bisd, post: 16728, member: 18”]OK. The starting PXE over IPv4 is good. Does it … and then give up, or does it ever get an IP address?[/quote]
No it never gets an ip address it just sits there for a bit then continues to boot into windows 8
[quote=“chad-bisd, post: 16706, member: 18”]Can anyone post some screen caps or pics of the bios network boot settings, the screen where you would expect PXE boot to being, and any errors that are showing up?
At this point I’m confused about where the error occurs. Do you even get an IP when PXE booting? Do you get the FOG menu? Need more info.
I had to learn how to compile a kernel and update driver files when we purchased 300 Acer Iconia w500p tablets. They would not pxeboot using options 66 and 67 if the dhcp server was a different server than the pxeboot server. If FOG was doing DHCP and pxe/tftp then I could PXE boot. If Windows was DHCP and FOG was pxe/tftp, it would hang. 800 other laptops worked fine, but these tablets and 1 other model of laptops would not PXE boot.
I had to implement ProxyDHCP to get my tablets to even PXE boot to the menu, then compile a new kernel with some graphics options disabled to keep the screen from going snowy, and updated drivers for the usb-rj45 lan card built into the docking keyboard to get the NIC working with FOG.[/quote]
ok here are the pics of the bios settings

I tried upload the photos of the bios settings but they are too large same thing in the with the zip files. I’ll see if i can post somewhere online then just past the link here
I never reach the fog menu when trying pxe boot this is the only thing i see. I will post some bios screen shot shortly
