This is a guide for adding Darik's Boot and Nuke (DBAN) to FOG 1.3.0.

Backend

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 called iso in the root directory.
  • Make a directory in the web folder called dban
  • Get the latest copy of dban (URL likely needs updated) and put it into the iso directory.
  • Mount the iso 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:

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


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 from the ISO:

x.x.x.x/dban


Frontend

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:

:DBAN
kernel ${boot_url}/dban/dban.bzi nuke="dwipe --autonuke" silent vga=785
boot


Menu Show with: All Hosts


It should look something like this when you're done:
