@Sebastian-Roth Thanks Sabastian.

@sebastian-roth HI Sabastian, sorry buddy the answer is staring me in the face, the domain password appears to be missing.

I have found it, you cant see the advanced tasks from the task menu, but if you go into hosts, list all host, select the PC you want, then click Basic Tasks, then advanced, the options are all there. Thanks everyone. I just needed to ask the right question. @Wayne-Workman @george1421

@sebastian-roth Thanks Sebastian, great that its all good now and another great bit of info on here…

@trev-lchs it appears this was a one off and subsequent installs have not had this issue. So this one can be written off as solved. Seems the resize NTFS partition failed to work one time.

@george1421 Thanks George, i will leave well alone, I am a great believer in “if it isn’t broke don’t fix it”. Thanks for all your help with this.

@trev-lchs that was the Ticket George, I just thought the config would go across to the fail over DHCP Server, live and learn eh. Thanks very much for your help

@trev-lchs now to test refind lol

@Trev-lchs We are an all HP shop. We have to use rEFInd version 0.10.9 for all of our systems to boot correctly. This is definitely something with HP’s EFI setup.

I ran into this problem myself, which you can reference the post https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/11993/refind-pxe-booting-issue

Let me know if you were able to get this working with this version

@Trev-lchs Thanks Tom, yea i did get a bit ahead, but time is a bit against me today, you know how it is, I will upgrade next week thanks for all your help.

@Trev-lchs said in HP 250 G7 fails to upload image:

This is now resolved, on checking it appears that the kernel downloaded was the ARM64 instead of 64.

Interesting the ARM kernel gets as far as that on a HP 250 G7…

I actually brought my laptop in from home, this I know is a uefi BIOS, on testing it, it booted into Fog with no issues ( it has been imaged in the past with FOG. So i then knew that UEFI boot was working. I have to hold my hands up on checking the HP 250 G7 it had not had secure boot switched off in the BIOS, this is a silly error and for this I blame my technician lol, (well i should have checked myself) on checking this morning i saw it was still on, I was lead down the FOG path after the kernel update failed. however i now have a different issue which i shall post.

@george1421 Yep thanks for your help George, we have it pixie booting now, unfortunately, on checking it this morning the Tech had not switched secure boot off in the laptop bios. due to the other issue i had been having i thought it was FOG, FOG is blameless in this instance.

@Sebastian-Roth the upper case is a mistake, oops sorry about that. Search is working now thanks all. it was the search box that was not displaying, so i could not type anything in, just clicking the search magnifying glass (expecting a search box to open), of course with no words to search it couldn’t find anything

@george1421 A Merry Christmas and a Happy new year to you guys.

@Trev-lchs Did you ever solve this? I just stumbled upon this issue report which we got years ago: https://github.com/FOGProject/fog-client/issues/72

@Trev-lchs uploaded image with no issue, I love Fog. I have been using it since 2006 not an expect by any means and i have no knowledge of Linux, but the online info is great and makes it possible for a Windows man to make it work.
