Hate to bump this - But has anybody done this but with Windows 7? We bagged Vista since it was quite painful to use in our environment. We want to look into trying out Windows 7 but as an absolute requirement it must support default profiles - something I cannot get working.
I've called Microsoft, posted on two forums exclusively dedicated to Windows 7, posted on 2 other forums in the Windows...

Oh I definitely agree with you. The thing is, installing Ubuntu/FOG (in my opinion) is just as easy as installing Windows/Ghost. When people hear I use FOG and it's Linux based sometimes they freak out like oh my gosh I can't use that.
Just recently I recommended FOG on a forum and everybody was demanding that they weren't a Linux guru and couldn't use it. I was just like, wow, judge before...

I need to bump this to ask another question that kind of confused me.
I was also testing Windows 7 on an Optiplex 740. I didn't realize I had taken an image of it at one point. This was well before the Studio One came and I started using that instead, since Studio One's are what we're hitting Windows 7 with first.
I deployed the image, all was good, booted up fine. Out of curiosity, I...

It's a Windows network.
I was just ASSUMING that you could drop the box in place, change the server IP to something in the scope, and re-direct the DHCP server IP within FOG to whatever your DHCP server is.
Is my assumption right or am I on the wrong track?.

This summer I decided to try out FOG, but I did it quietly since, well, I'm not the network admin and I didn't want tot just add servers to his stack when I wasn't too sure how everything would work. So I used FOG on my laptop and just walked around with a 24 port gig switch and manually wired the computers up to my gig switch to do imaging.
If I just assign my FOG server a static IP within...

We all know FOG is Linux based. As a result of FOG being Linux based, I love it just that much more since I'm a Linux fanatic.
Recently in a Windows forum somebody was asking on how to do imaging on Windows 7. I brought up FOG, as I always do. Someone on there got on my case about how not everybody is a Linux expert so to do imaging as a Linux newbie (but Windows guru) isn't plausible, etc.

That did the trick. Thank you! I had completely forgotten about that during the Windows 7 partitioning menu that it auto-created a 100mb partition even though I only made 1 myself. So that kind of made sense.
Thanks again!

Update -
As a test, I took the same computer and ran the BCDEDIT commands to it and uploaded it to a completely different image file on the same FOG computer. Immediately after uploading, I got the same error.
Without BCDEDIT - Uploaded fine. Deploying was troublesome. Repair required.
With BCDEDIT - Error after uploading. Repair required.
What can I do to get 7 to work??.

Running FOG 0.28 on Ubuntu 9.04.
I'm testing Windows 7 on a Dell Studio 1909 computer. I decided to upload an image so I could play around with the Studio without fearing that I would screw anything up permanently so I could just restore the image if need be.
Well, that happened. It uploaded fine, no issues, but when I re-deployed it, it failed to boot up. I deployed it twice, both times...
