Getting FOG Project

The latest release of FOG Project is 1.6.0-RC-9, released October 09, 2026.

At this time, a FOG server installation is only supported on a computer running Linux. We recommend using a Long Term Support distribution meant for servers, such as Ubuntu, Debian, Rocky or Alma Linux. We also recommend installing FOG Project inside a virtual machine, to aide in easy backups and upgrades.
