[quote=“Blackbook, post: 14121, member: 2681”]Just revisited this - I set up a brand new ubuntu desktop and installed nothing but Fog on it - I reformatted the problem laptop and did nothing but put 1 txt document on desktop. I also reset the toshiba bios.

To check fog was working, I took a working laptop and did a quick host, an upload, and a deploy all successfully.

I then took the problem laptop, managed to get the PXE to boot to fog menu, did a ‘quick host’ first time, completed an upload (to a new image file) first time also, went to deploy it - and it got stuck at the same place as the video. Just dispays a ‘#’ when it should go to the blue screen.

I’m about to throw it all out the window.[/quote]

we had a problem child machine we just chose an older kernel for fog and magicly it worked… Our problem child was a Brand New Dell Vostro 2420 brand new out of box one Deployed fine the other we had to change to an older kernel to get to it deploy… Same Bios versions and Ethernet Firmware versions. Identical hardware. Go figure. we stepped back all the way to the 2637 kernel. Hope that helps?

has no one else encountered this??

[quote=“Jaymes Driver, post: 14094, member: 3582”]I don’t have any experience with MINT but, it is an Ubuntu derivative.

I this a fresh FOG setup? Has this worked in the past and just stopped working? or is this your first attempt at setting up a server and attempting to image?

I would check the log to see if the FOG server is 1 looking for the cast, and 2 is the owner of the process.[/quote]

We are currently using a Ubuntu 12.04 with Fog 0.32 and its fairly botched at this point due to it being a VM thats migrated. So this is my first time installing FOG. But I am using it 3 to 4 days a week…

We have been building images for several Windows machines all PRO, some x86 some x64. But regardless of machine or order of install… After a sysprep and a deploy the Machine is set to use checkboxes to select items… this is not a setting we are enabling… and how can we stop it??? it seems to be somehow embedded… I just imaged another machine with our most recent image… Setup the admin account the way It needs to be… including getting rid of checkboxes for selection… and made the user account… logged in and low and behold it was setup to use checkboxes for selection… I am going slightly crazy at this point, and after reading countless hours of sysprep stuff I can’t seem to find where it says it does that…

Thanks,
James
