Arch Workstation Imaging

This project was started through a project from SIG-SysAdmin in 2012 by Chase Lee.

Since then, the project has been moved to a the VM: lighthouse (172.29.10.7)

The Imaging system is an instance of FOG (A Free Open Source Computer Cloning Solution). At the time of this writing, we are running FOG version 0.32 on Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS.

Setup

In this section, I will briefly discuss the setup required for this imaging system to be put in place.

TBA - FIXME

Web Interface

FOG is entirely managed through a web interface. You may reach this interface through the internal network or through VPN at: http://lighthouse/fog/management/index.php

Limitations

  • As of FOG v0.32, the imaging software does not support the ext4 filesystem.
  • As of FOG v0.32, there is no 4k sector support, although I do not expect us to have such a large image.
  • As of FOG v0.32, there is no system preping for our archlinux images, as you might expect in other common Windows-based imaging schemes.
