Walking from desk to desk with USB drives or DVDs is not just time-consuming\u2014it&#8217;s inefficient and prone to inconsistency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is <strong>exactly the problem FOG Project solves.<\/strong> In this guide, you&#8217;ll learn how to <strong>install FOG server on Ubuntu<\/strong> or Debian Linux, giving you the power to deploy Windows (including Windows 11), Linux, and other operating systems to dozens or even hundreds of computers simultaneously over your network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether you&#8217;re a sysadmin at a school district, an IT technician managing a corporate fleet, or a homelab enthusiast who wants to experiment with network imaging, this fog project installation guide will walk you through every step with clear explanations of what you&#8217;re doing and why.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-is-fog-project-and-how-does-it-work\">What Is FOG Project and How Does It Work?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>FOG (Free Open-source Ghost) <\/strong>is a network-based computer cloning and management solution <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/FOGProject\/fogproject?tab=readme-ov-file\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">available on GitHub.<\/a><\/strong> Unlike traditional imaging tools that require physical media, FOG uses PXE (Preboot Execution Environment) to boot client computers directly from the network and either capture or deploy disk images. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here&#8217;s the basic workflow:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Capture<\/strong>: You set up a reference machine with Windows or Linux configured exactly how you want it\u2014drivers installed, software configured, updates applied. FOG captures this as an image stored on your server.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Deploy<\/strong>: When you need to set up new machines or reimage existing ones, client computers boot from the network via <strong>PXE<\/strong>. FOG pushes the stored image to them automatically.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Manage<\/strong>: FOG also provides inventory tracking, Active Directory integration, printer management, and scheduled tasks.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>The <strong>fog pxe server linux setup means<\/strong> your imaging infrastructure runs on stable, free software rather than expensive proprietary solutions. Common use cases include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Educational institutions<\/strong> reimaging computer labs between semesters<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Corporate IT departments<\/strong> deploying standardized workstations<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>MSPs (Managed Service Providers)<\/strong> setting up client machines efficiently<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Repair shops<\/strong> restoring machines to factory configurations<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-system-requirements-for-fog-server\">System Requirements for FOG Server<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Before you install fog server on Debian or Ubuntu, make sure your hardware and network meet these requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-hardware-requirements\">Hardware Requirements<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>FOG <\/strong>itself is lightweight, but image storage demands space:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>CPU<\/strong>: Any modern 64-bit processor (multi-core recommended for faster compression)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>RAM<\/strong>: Minimum <strong>2 GB<\/strong>, recommended <strong>4 GB<\/strong> or more<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Storage<\/strong>: This depends entirely on how many images you plan to store. A single Windows 11 image can range from 15-50 GB depending on installed software. Plan for at least 100 GB for the FOG partition, with more being better.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Network Interface<\/strong>: Gigabit Ethernet strongly recommended\u2014imaging over 100 Mbps is painfully slow<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-network-requirements\">Network Requirements<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>A <strong>wired network connection<\/strong> (Wi-Fi won&#8217;t work for PXE boot)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Either control over your <strong>DHCP server <\/strong>or the ability to run <strong>FOG&#8217;s built<\/strong>-in <strong>DHCP<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Network <strong>switches <\/strong>that support <strong>PXE<\/strong>\/<strong>TFTP <\/strong>traffic (most do by default)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-supported-operating-systems\">Supported Operating Systems<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>FOG officially supports:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Ubuntu<\/strong>: <strong>20.04 LTS, 22.04 LTS, 24.04 LTS<\/strong> or <strong>26.04 LTS<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Debian<\/strong>: 11 (Bullseye), 12 (Bookworm)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Other distributions work, but Ubuntu and Debian receive the most testing and community support.

If DHCP assigns a new address after a reboot, client machines won&#8217;t find your PXE server. Configure a static IP either through your router&#8217;s DHCP reservation feature or directly in your server&#8217;s network configuration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For Ubuntu\/Debian with Netplan, you&#8217;d edit <code>\/etc\/netplan\/<\/code> configuration files. For systems using traditional networking, modify <code>\/etc\/network\/interfaces<\/code>. The FOG installer will ask for your IP configuration, so have these details ready:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Server IP address<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Subnet mask<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Gateway address<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>DNS server(s)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-use-a-wired-connection\">Use a Wired Connection<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>PXE boot happens before any operating system loads, so Wi-Fi drivers aren&#8217;t available. Both your FOG server and client machines must connect via Ethernet cables.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-understand-secure-boot-implications\">Understand Secure Boot Implications<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Modern machines with UEFI Secure Boot enabled may refuse to PXE boot unsigned bootloaders. You have two options:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Disable Secure Boot in the client BIOS\/UEFI settings<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Configure FOG to use signed bootloaders (more complex but maintains security)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>For most internal deployments, temporarily disabling Secure Boot during imaging is the practical choice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-step-by-step-guide-to-install-fog-server-on-ubuntu-or-debian\">Step-by-Step Guide to Install FOG Server on Ubuntu or Debian<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Now let&#8217;s get into the actual installation. These steps work for both Ubuntu and Debian with minimal differences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-step-1-update-the-system\">Step 1 \u2013 Update the System<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Start with a clean, fully updated system.

The installer expects certain library versions that may differ on unpatched systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-step-2-install-required-packages\">Step 2 \u2013 Install Required Packages<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>FOG&#8217;s installer handles most dependencies automatically, but you need <code>git<\/code> to download the source code:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code lang=\"bash\" class=\"language-bash\">sudo apt install git -y<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>On minimal server installations, you may also want to install basic utilities:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code lang=\"bash\" class=\"language-bash\">sudo apt install curl wget net-tools -y<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-step-3-download-fog-project-from-github\">Step 3 \u2013 Download FOG Project from GitHub<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Clone the official FOG repository.

For production stability, you can check out a specific release tag, but the development branch is generally stable for FOG.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-step-4-run-the-fog-installation-script\">Step 4 \u2013 Run the FOG Installation Script<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>After downloading the project switch to its bin folder and execute the installation script.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code lang=\"bash\" class=\"language-bash\">cd \/opt\/fogproject\/bin\nsudo .\/installfog.sh<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>The installer is interactive and will ask several questions.
