FOG - Updating kernel

[wesleyw]

How do I update the kernel the website wiki states I go to the kernel update section and choose a new kernel to download however when I go there nothing is available as shown here:

 

I think this is because we're behind a proxy server is there anyway to make FOG use the proxy first?

 

Any way around this I'm trying to image a scsi based server (DELL 1850) which ghost happily imaged but FOG won't it states that the disk is incompatible?

Just bypass the GUI. Download the kernel image manually.

Just done that (thanks Geoff) but the problem still arises the adapter in question is a LSI Logic PCI-X Ultra 320 SCSI card thought it might just be the system but I have the same problem with all of them (DELL 1850s) However I can run ubuntu and it finds the Hard Drive without issue?

tried the 'kitchen sink' kernel image?

[wesleyw]

Yeah and several of the older versions which helped sort out a problem with the PowerEdge R200 server having a similar issue. How would I go about injecting the correct drivers into the bzImage kernel?

there's a guide to creating a custom kernel here Building a Custom Kernel - FOGProject Wiki

 

I've never got round to trying it myself, but doesn't look too daunting
