@mparlette @george1421 Thanks. I’m not sure what the issue was, but I believe it to have been network related. I didn’t realize it initially when I posted but the pings I was doing, showed dropped packets galore (even while some were successful). I’m working my way through the install guide after creating a new VM, and so far it’s looking alright. No packet loss on an initial test ping. We’ll see what happens when I start the FOG installer!

EDIT:
SUCCESS!

@george1421 I was following the guide here:

@george1421 I’m able to ping google by URL, but not fogproject. However, I am able to ping it by the IP listed.

@george1421 So this is interesting… I’m able to ping machines on our local network, but I cannot ping www.fogproject.org.
That said, the machine definitely has internet access (as I am currently posting this from said machine).

@george1421 Thanks for the reply, it has direct access.

After not being able to get the install to complete on Ubuntu 18 or 16 due to inability to download binaries, I decided to give the CentOS install a shot. While it went better in terms of not having to deal with sourcing some of the required packages that are deprecated, the install is still failing at the
* Downloading binaries needed.................................Failed!

I’ve included the error log for the attempted CentOS install.
0_1530198049150_fog_error_1.5.4.log

Is there a way that I can download the binaries manually?

@george1421 I’ll attempt to. Not sure if this is coincidence, or not, but for some reason the (ISA) network card isn’t working on my Windows install now. Like it doesn’t even show in my network adapters list anymore. Attempted to go through the “Add New Hardware” prompts, won’t recognize on hardware scan. When I try to add it manually by selecting from list, it’s present but there is an error message next to it, saying the device failed to start. Tried ignoring it and re-installing the drivers anyways, but was unsuccessful.

@george1421 Burned to CD-R, it’s booting from it now, but it seems like it’s only seeing the onboard (non-functioning) network card.

EDIT:
I disabled both ports via BIOS configuration, and it still fails.

I take back my previous statement, I think that it’s at least recognizing the ISA card. If I have a cable plugged in the MAC shows up as 94:94:94:… but if it’s not plugged in, it’s all 0’s

@george1421 Upon further inspection, I don’t think the disk-drive is capable of reading from the disk I used, or something. I attempted to browse the disk in Explorer and I get an error saying the disk may be corrupt.

@george1421 Well I wasn’t actually able to boot from the image… or at least it seems that way. I set my boot order accordingly; on startup it went through the normal stuff, then "Boot from CD: " was displayed, the cursor blinked for 20 to 30 seconds, and it proceeded to boot from the HDD.
