@Xibeaga actually, no. There’s been very few this past year.

@tom-elliott
Nice move! Thanks a lot!
i give it a try!

Hey, konw I know lots more about fog than i used to know, and i use it since 0.30 or so 😉

If it actually deployed 95% of the image, you’ve probably got a good shot at recovering a file that’s on the image.

Take the drive that you deployed the image to and attach it to another (bootable) computer directly or via a usb adapter and try accessing it with a software recovery tool. There’s lots out there that are free or free to try in some fashion.

GetDataBack for NTFS is one I’ve used often with good results. It’s at runtime.org and lets you do the whole recovery and preview the recovered files for free. You just need to pay them if you want to save files from the recovery. It’s pretty good at picking out NTFS even if its hashed up a bit. It can do a raw recovery as well, but that’s pretty time consuming. Even if you don’t want to pay runtime.org for the software, you’d be able to get an idea of whether you’ll be able to recover it with another program.

On win7 make sure you use GDB-NTFS using run as administrator or it won’t have rights to work with the physical disk.

Okay, this is/was the problem:

the cloning DOES start, but it is really slow.
There is no image file visible in /images/dev for a really long time (20-25 minutes).

Thus, I can live with the black console 🙂

The console wont show anything, even with serial-stuff enabled in the pxe-config file.

i dont care any more, i am happy that this thing (an embedded system without vga-card) can be cloned :)))

Ok, Thanks! I will give it a try!
