I had some servers where the lie process always got stuck at "Creating Image Schema".

I debugged it now and found out it hangs at this point:

hard_drive_guid=`gdisk -l $hard_drive ...

https://github.com/jdolny/Toems-MSI/blob/main/Toems Client API/Program Files/Toec-API/private/clientscripts/lie_upload#L270

in my case it asks for input because it seems to have both, MBR and GPT.

a bit later in the script it checks the "mbr_status", but I think this check should be done BEFORE the gdisk call so that it can exit cleanly.

      hard_drive_guid=`gdisk -l $hard_drive 2>> $CLIENT_LOG | grep GUID | awk -F': ' '{print $2}'`
	  log "Current NVRAM Entries"
	  efibootmgr -v &>> $CLIENT_LOG
      if [ "$mbr_status" = "MBR only" ]; then
        error "This Hard Drive Appears To Have Both GPT And MBR.  Theopenem Does Not Know What To Use.  You Must First Convert The Drive To One Or The Other Before Uploading"
      fi

Hi and first thank you very much for your continued development with Theopenem.

This week I finally started to install it (current v1.5.6.0 fresh install) to start replacing Clone Deploy that I still run. But had now problems with hanging schema build at servers.

I have some servers already added as image only and a windows vm where I can easily test imaging and watch the screen remotely.

Imaging with LZ4 is working fine, but when I switch to "none" as compression, it has "the best compression ever", as size stays at 0.
I want to use none because of dedup, like when I requested it for Clone Deploy

It shows no errors but it just doesn't send anything and directly goes to 100%.

I tried with the VM (all partitions) and physical servers (custom schema, only OS Disk), all empty.

It looks then like this:

VM:

With LZ4:

Anything I do wrong? Does it work for anyone?
