Not that I am aware of. I was on vacation.
So, what are the changes I need to make?

Thanks,

Tom

@george1421

seems to be correct.

Tom

@george1421
That was not it. I put the laptop on the 192.168.2.x subnet and I got the same results.

Thanks,

Tom

Tom

@george1421
Yes, the IP’s are correct and expected.

Tom

@george1421

Actually, there is already unmanaged switch between.

We have only Latitude in our environment, the issue repeats on 7280 as well. All firmware are up to date.
I cannot tell what changed, I’ve upgraded to 1.4.4 awhile ago and it was working properly.
Is there any log I can look into?

Thanks,

Tom

@sebastian-roth
The system is Latitude E7240 with Intel onboard NIC I218-LM.

attached is the result of lspci -n
when I tried to run lsusb, I got “unable to initialize libusb: -99”

Tom

@george1421
1.What is the manufacturer and model of the hardware you are trying to pxe boot? Dell Latitude 7240, I tried several machines.
2.Is the firmware in uefi or bios (legacy) mode? legacy
3.What exactly do you have programmed for dhcp option 67 {boot-file}? undionly.kkpxe

The system was stable and working perfectly, suddenly it stopped.

Please watch the short video here
Thanks,

Description

Good Afternoon,
I am able to get to the menu without a problem. Once I try to register a machine or deploy an image, it seems bzimage and INI are going, but then nothing happening.
The screen gets black and the curser blinking.
Thanks,

Tom

Tom

@Wayne-Workman Thank you so much!

Tom

@Wayne-Workman The question is what should I do when I will need to upgrade to new OS. I’m not looking to stay on 14.04 forever
Is there a way to export\import fog settings and images?

Tom

@Wayne-Workman I think I’m on FOG trunk 1.3 RC10.
Thanks!

Tom

@Wayne-Workman Thank you so much. I had to revert back to 14.04 since I could not leave it non functional - we use it on a daily basis.
I would really appreciate if it can be summarized into one simplified (as possible) list of steps that will result in successful upgrade. It feels like the more I try to fix it, it gets further away from success.

Would it be easier to backup all fog settings and images, build new 16 server, install fog and restore?

If none of this is possible, I will try again using your recent instructions.

Again, thank you all for being out there supporting…

Tom

@EAHarvey I’ve done it all, once apache2 got broken, I could not fix it.
Thanks!
