This is a guide for adding Darik's Boot and Nuke (DBAN) to FOG 1.3.0. While following the below tutorial, please keep in mind that ''everything'' in Linux is case sensitive.

[[Include any ISO in the FOG Bootmenu]]
For this example, we will be using Fedora 21 Server; these commands should work for CentOS and RHEL as well. For Debian/Ubuntu based distributions you should only need to change the web directory paths to (maybe?) exclude the /html part.
 
 
 
Please note that the below wget URL will likely need updated to a current URL for the latest DBAN ISO.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Here is a '''step-by-step explanation''' of what the '''below commands''' do:
 
 
 
*Make a directory in the root directory called "iso."
 
 
 
*Make a directory in the web folder called "dban."
 
 
 
*Get the latest copy of dban using wget (URL likely needs updated) and put it into the "iso" directory with the name "dban.iso."
 
 
 
*Mount the dban.iso file to the "dban" web directory as read-only (must be read only for ISOs).
 
 
 
 
 
These commands are executed on your FOG server via CLI with sudo or root permissions:
 
 
 
<pre>mkdir /iso
 
mkdir /var/www/html/dban
 
wget -O /iso/dban.iso http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/dban/dban/dban-2.3.0/dban-2.3.0_i586.iso
 
mount -t iso9660 -o loop /iso/dban.iso /var/www/html/dban</pre>
 
 
 
 
 
If you've done the steps above correctly, you should be able to visit the directory in a web browser like so to see the files inside the ISO:
 
 
 
<pre>x.x.x.x/dban</pre>

Now we must add a new entry to the FOG boot menu. For this, we will navigate in the FOG web UI to here:
 
 
 
FOG Configuration -> iPXE New Menu Entry
 
 
 
In this menu, you will add the below information.
 
 
 
 
 
Menu Item:  DBAN
 
 
 
Description: Boot and nuke (This is what the menu displays)
 
 
 
Parameters:
 
 
 
<pre>:DBAN
 
kernel ${boot_url}/dban/dban.bzi nuke="dwipe --autonuke" silent vga=785
 
boot</pre>
 
 
 
 
 
Menu Show with: All Hosts
 
 
 
 
 
It should look something like this when you're done:
 
 
 
[[file:DBAN_1.3.0.png]]
 
 
 
'''NOTE:''' Some have reported that this works for them without the double quotes around this part: ''dwipe --autonuke'' but you may not have this problem.
