I want to add a recovery disk to the FOG boot menu but I can’t figure out how to do this.
Everything I have found seems to be for the wrong version or I can’t understand it.
Can anyone point me in the right direction to get started? I want to boot to a Microsoft Dart 7 disk.
Found the answers while looking through the release thread. The config.php has become /var/www/fog/lib/fog/Config.class.php. Added my SQL password in and it all worked.
After upgrading to 1.2.0 one of my FOG servers is not completing the upgrade.
I get a lot oferrors when I click the Install/Upgrade Now button. I would think it is a SQL password issue. I cannot find the config.php files in order to change that on for 1.2.0. Here is a sample of the errors I get.

I am creating a SAD pack from [url]http://driverpacks.net/[/url] and then calling it in a script on first login. Sysprep does one automated login for me.
[FONT=book antiqua][SIZE=3]That did it. I tried using sc config “Fog service” start= auto before but I added it to the run in GUI section of sysprep to try and get it to run. That does not work. What does work is creating a separate batch file to enable FOG and have sysprep call the batch file. [/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=book antiqua][SIZE=3]Thank you for the help.[/SIZE][/FONT]
net stop “Fog service” is how I am entering the command because that is what works on the command line. Unfortunately despite trying to put it in both sysprep and the driver script in different places it does not seem to be effective in stopping FOG service before it starts renaming.
I ahve an automated process for installing drivers on my computers after an image. But FOg rename/join domain reboots the computer part way through the driver install process.
Is there a way to only start FOG rename after the first reboot or delay it a set amount?
Sorry, I thought I had posted the solution to this.
What i had to do was update the kernel that FOG uses and then delete the affected workstations from the system.
I used kernel [FONT=sans-serif][COLOR=#000000]2.6.35.7 KS since it was on a Dell Optiplex 755.[/COLOR][/FONT]
[FONT=sans-serif][COLOR=#000000][url]http://www.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/WorkingDevices[/url][/COLOR][/FONT]
[FONT=sans-serif][COLOR=#000000]I can’t find the instructions on how to replace the kernel right now but you need to put it in [/COLOR][/FONT][FONT=monospace][COLOR=#000000]/tftpboot/fog/kernel/ and name it bzImage.[/COLOR][/FONT]
[FONT=monospace][COLOR=#000000]Depending on your issue just deleting the system from FOG and re-registering it might be a solution.[/COLOR][/FONT]
On my last batch of computers I have beeng etting:
LSASS.exe - operation failed
The requested operation was unsuccessful.
in a pop up window. XP does not load the login screen and the mouse and keyboard do not work. I have to hold down the power button to get the system to turn off.
This has been on Dell Optiplex 755 and 760s. Out of 6 computers only one of them would take the image. I cannot see what is different between the computer in question. I have tried multiple windows XP images and even makin an entirly new image with different sysprep files to try and resolve this issue. I can push my images to other computers successfuly.
Any suggestions on how to troubleshoot this?
i should have the same .net installed on both the XP and 7 but they could be handling it in different ways. Stopping on the low memory computers after image is probaly the way I’ll hadle it.
Yes, I disabling all of the extra services on the client and the server. All of that may have saved a couple of Mb but it is hard to tell since the amount varies over time by a several Mb.
The part that really gets me is it only takes up 6 Mb under Windows 7.
I was testing outthe FOg client for renaming and joining my computers to the domain after an image. I noticed it was using 32 Mb or RAM when it was just sitting there. It is only set to rename the computer, log loggins, and check for tasks.
Is that normal and is there any way to get the memoery usage down? About half my computers only have 512 ram so losing that much to the FOG service and tray is a big hit.
As the title says, where do i find the report for disk surface checks?
