at my company i am imaging a dell Latitude 5580 laptop and when i select the second imaging type(as seen below)
it suddenly changes to the fourth option called RAW image when the imaging process starts on the laptop
any idea why this keeps happening?
@wayne-workman Thanks for the help we solved it!
you can mark this as solved
when i boot from a thin client using pxe to the server it gives me the following error
any ideas to why this might be occuring?
no its a clean install we just a clean install
I have installed Fogserver using a running script with an already configured fogsettings file. however, for some reason it didn’t want to install the SSL certificatie it just said: Creating SSL Certificate Failed.
any idea why this occurs?
okay so my FOG server looks like this: i installed Debian O.S. on a usb and then run it from a pc without a hardrive or ssd or anything installed now that fog is functioning properly i connected an SSD to the first sata port and want to make it a storage node i haven’t done anything with it yet but was wondering how i would go at doing this.
@unknownhost99 i just want to let everybody now that the server functions properly know thanks to everyone who replied, it was a great help and i love the service you supply keep going at it!
@sebastian-roth yea but the weird thing is it worked just fine yesterday and no settings or hardware changed and now its not working
@sebastian-roth dhcp is done with the router and dnsmmasq i have it plugged in the right router so that shouldnt be the problem
@george1421 weirdly enough dont know what the issue is we went into the menu of fog using dhcp and even manged to capture an image from it but weirdly enough when it was done., i tried to boot again and now it says no boot file found whilst booting from pxe no settings or anything has been changed
@george1421 i fixed the issue we can now finally start with adding hosts and adding images
@george1421 me and my boss went over the whole prgress and its working much better now although now when trying to boot from ipxe we get:
TFTP
file not found
and then it exitst the pxe boot
@george1421 we know we are looking into the dhcp which currently run by a router so if anything still goes wrong then ill update it here thanks!
@george1421 this is my pcap file https://drive.google.com/open?id=1TvJgG3kwDhArrjIqz_uiybfPZASLDlz8
and this is the config file i currently use hope it helps.

@george1421 well not yet but i am getting closer to the end some problems with the dhcp when trying the PXE boot to the fog this is my log when i use pxe boot any idea what the problem might be
@george1421
https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php?title=ProxyDHCP_with_dnsmasq i used this one before the uefi support one
@george1421 it is fine i have unsinstalled it and did the install without uefi support and it went without a hitch
@george1421 well i still got the same error but now that i kept looking i found it says there is no dnsmasq.d directory to begin with
@george1421 i did vi /etc/dnsmasq.d/ltsp.conf and there also was no .conf file except a file called dnsmasq.conf.example Though when i try to save/write the config file it says:‘’ /etc/dnsmasq.d/ltsp.conf’’ E212 Can’t open file for writing
