Deploying to Fujitsu Siemes Lifebook S710
Hello.
I'm able to deploy to all computer models besides the Lifebook S710 from Fujitsu Siemens (FS). Knowing that manufacturers such as FS and Dell aren't keen on supporting deployment issues I will post my case here.
Booting both from my PXE server and DVD works fine. However, when I choose "configure" (where you can specify deployment server and network settings) there aren't any network settings available. I do believe that this is the root of the problem. When I move on it stops on "Processing, please wait...". The PC does therefore not appear in the Snap Deployment Management Console.
Do you have any experience with this particular PC model or this issue in general?
Kind regards,
Nils Rune Hjelle

I am following the "If you would like to create the report on a flash drive, click here" guide.
When I enter cat /proc/partitions I get way less information than the guide does. I'm missing the path to the flash drive (scsi/host0/bus0 etc etc).
Any idea?

Hello Nils,
Thank you for replying.
It is possible the flash drive is not getting detected by our bootable media. Can you please download the bootable media from your Acronis web-account and try booting either from the standalone version or the master image creator and check if it detects your flash drive.
The bootable components used in the PXE Server and the bootable media are identical.
Please let me know if you have additional questions.
Thank you.

Hi again.
As I said above, the USB drive is detected. It is also probably mounted automatically.
Can you explain me how I can write to a mounted USB drive?
