| 14:29 Mrfai | MT: hast recht mit der safe-upgrade. Habe ich falsch implementiert. Mich wundert nur warum ich keine Fehlermeldung bei m-f-n bekomme? |
| 14:29 MT | warum solltest Du bei m-f-n eine bekommen? |
| 14:29 MT | oder wird da irgendwann updatebase gemacht? |
| 14:30 MT | (ich habe eh nicht ganz verstanden, warum Du das log gepostet hast, aber da warst Du schon weg...) |
| 14:30 Mrfai | Stimmt. Habe ich gerade auch bemerkt. Wird ja nur auf dem Client aufgerufen |
| 14:30 Mrfai | Mann sollte safe-upgrade aber wohl auch bei m-f-n nutzen, oder? |
| 14:31 MT | oh, muss ich mal in m-f-n reinschauen.... |
| 14:31 Mrfai | D.h aber das fai 3.2.2 wirklich broken ist. Also werd ich mal 3.2.3 bauen. |
| 14:32 MT | also es ist nicht dramatisch, aber ein bisschen broken schon :-) |
| 14:32 MT | deshalb hab ich auch severity: important gemacht |
| 14:32 MT | m-f-n macht aber doch sogar noch apt-get |
| 14:32 MT | $ROOTCMD apt-get -y dist-upgrade |
| 14:32 MT | Zeile 365 |
| 14:33 MT | wenn ich das richtig sehe |
| 14:36 Mrfai | mikap: ich bau dann mal schnell 3.2.3. Ist das noch OK fuer dich? |
| 14:37 MT | Mrfai, könntest Du dann gleich eine kosmetische Korrektur machen? |
| 14:37 MT | # fai-client (fai 3.2.1); Severity: minor; Reported by: Michael Prokop <mika@grml.org>; 19 days old; Modified 12 days ago. |
| 14:37 MT | # #451013 |
| 14:38 MT | sorry, das war mehr als gewollt |
| 14:38 MT | ich meinte nur #451013 |
| Action: Mrfai geht erstmal Kuchen kaufen |
| 14:39 MT | ach ja, und #452363 ist eigentlich auch erledigt ... |
| 14:39 MT | mit dem koeln repo |
| 14:39 MT | #445273 auch ... |
| 14:56 Mrfai | MT: bist du sicher das 445273 nicht gefixt ist? |
| 14:57 MT | _nicht_ gefixt ist, oder schon gefixt ist? |
| 14:58 Mrfai | nocht nicht oder nicht schon oder ??? Bahnhof? |
| 14:58 Mrfai | ich fang mal mit dem safe-upgrade an. |
| 14:58 MT | ich denke, dass der Bug bereits in 3.2.2 gefixt ist |
| 14:58 MT | Du hast doch die diversen chmods eingebaut |
| 14:59 Mrfai | also einfach via mail ans BTS schliessen |
| 14:59 MT | denke schon |
| 14:59 lazyb0y | seid ihr sicher, dass dr bug nicht nicht gefixt ist, und nicht noch besteht, oder nicht? Nicht? |
| 14:59 Mrfai | d.h aber nur 3.2.3 ist es nicht relevant |
| 14:59 lazyb0y | oder doch nicht nicht? |
| 14:59 Mrfai | dem lazyb0y haben sie was in den Kuchen getan |
| 15:00 MT | habt ihr Kekse? |
| 15:00 lazyb0y | crack |
| 15:00 MT | da backen die Leute ja allerhand Dinge rein... |
| 15:00 lazyb0y | crack-cracker |
| 15:00 MT | :-D |
| 15:04 Mrfai | #451013 mach ich wohl erst wenn ich auf lenny umsteige. In etch wird das ja noch ncht erkannt. |
| 15:05 MT | ah, ok |
| 15:06 Mrfai | letzte Wuensche fuer 3.2.3? 10, 9, 8 ... |
| 15:07 MT | mom ... |
| 15:07 Mrfai | 3, 2, ... |
| 15:07 MT | kurz noch einen Blick auf die Liste ... |
| 15:07 MT | go. |
| 15:08 MT | hast Du #452363 als gefixt markiert? |
| 15:10 Mrfai | OKich mach erstmal das release. ich schicke die -close mail dann spaeter |
| 15:10 MT | oki |

| 16:17 mikap | Mrfai: 3.2.3 ist ok und keinerlei stress für mich :) |
| 16:20 Mrfai | fine :-) |

| 16:21 sobersabre | hi. |
| 16:22 sobersabre | please refer to: http://paste.debian.net/43336 |
| 16:22 sobersabre | does this happen, because I have chosen too many kernel images to install ? |
| 16:24 Mrfai | no space left on this partition? |
| 16:28 sobersabre | :) why ?! |
| 16:29 sobersabre | how much does 1 image take ? |
| 16:29 sobersabre | 5 MB ? |
| 16:29 sobersabre | I have 256 MB |
| 16:30 Mrfai | broken mirror? Which mirror do you use? Please paste your whole fai.log |
| 16:32 sobersabre | the mirror is in LAN. |
| 16:36 sobersabre | I found the problem |
| 16:36 sobersabre | /boot/grub isn't created. |
| 16:36 sobersabre | I've played with {fai_conf}/files/boot/grub/ |
| 16:36 sobersabre | :) |
| 16:38 sobersabre | when is it supposed to be created ? |
| 16:39 Mrfai | hooks/instsoft.FAIBASE |
| 16:39 Mrfai | this is important. And postinst of grub/menu.lst |

| 18:10 sobersabre | Mrfai, all I have in instsoft.FAIBASE is: |
| 18:10 sobersabre | [ -s $target/etc/kernel-img.conf ] || fcopy -Bi /etc/kernel-img.conf |
| 18:10 sobersabre | I added the creation with checks on existance. |
| 18:10 sobersabre | before this line. |
| 18:10 sobersabre | although it doesn't matter - before or after. |
| 18:13 sobersabre | as long as /boot/grub is created before grub-install. |
| 18:17 Mrfai | does this hook copy the kernel-img.conf? Does fcopy execute the postinst of grub/menu.lst? |
| 18:17 Mrfai | have also a look into shell.log |
| kugg (~jerkeby@hackaton.0x63.nu) joined #fai. |
| 18:29 Mrfai | kugg: I had a look at faimond-local. Using libui-dialog-perl does not make sense. Flashing will not dissapear, because this lib also uses system to call whiptail. And whiptail does not support colors. |
| 18:29 Mrfai | So I will just extend the existing faimond-local. No need for you to work on it any more. |
| 18:29 kugg | Yes Mrfai I have also found this :( |
| 18:30 kugg | but I have been ripping my hair for aworkaround, none found so far |
| 18:30 Mrfai | the flashing is not that bad in a text console. In an xterm is really ugly. |
| 18:30 kugg | ok have not tried it in the tty |
| 18:31 kugg | ill be back in asecond |
| kugg (~jerkeby@hackaton.0x63.nu) left irc: Quit: reboot |
| 18:47 sobersabre | Mrfai, can you look at this one: http://paste.debian.net/43352 |
| 18:47 sobersabre | I don't understand these error messages. |
| 18:48 sobersabre | for some reason it tries to install initrd image ( I don't need one, on IDE ), and for some reason there's still problems. |
| 18:49 Mrfai | the log file is not complete. It end at line 1021 |
| 18:50 Mrfai | Maybe a limit at paste.debian.net |
| 18:50 Mrfai | I like to see the rest |
| 18:50 MT | the only error message it has so far is this one: |
| 18:50 MT | /var/lib/fai/config/hooks/instsoft.WNODE: line 5: [: mkdir: binary operator expected |
| 18:56 Mrfai | sobersabre: check your hook. What does this mkdir do? |
| 18:56 sobersabre | yep. |
| 18:56 sobersabre | http://paste.debian.net/43354 |
| 18:56 lazyb0y | sobersabre: the deafutl debian kernels always come with an initrd... |
| 18:56 sobersabre | this is the complete log ( removed the packages. |
| 18:56 sobersabre | ok |
| 18:56 sobersabre | I am looking at mkdir. |
| 18:56 sobersabre | probably did something bad there... |
| 18:57 sobersabre | mkdir $target/boot |
| 18:57 sobersabre | mkdir $target/boot/grub |
| 18:57 sobersabre | these are the commands. |
| 18:57 sobersabre | oh ! |
| 18:57 sobersabre | found a typo. |
| 18:58 sobersabre | waiting for this iteration to complete. |
| 18:58 sobersabre | where do I read on how do I define a "monserver" |
| 18:58 sobersabre | ? |
| 18:58 sobersabre | I still wonder why doesn't /boot/grub get created. . . |
| 18:59 sobersabre | very wierd. |
| 18:59 MT | did you fix your script? |
| 18:59 sobersabre | I yes. |
| 18:59 sobersabre | I will have to wait until the kernel is attempted to be configured. |
| 18:59 MT | no more errors when calling the hook? |
| 19:00 sobersabre | if that was the problem, I want to understand why this folder isn't created auto-magically :) |
| 19:00 sobersabre | waiting. |
| 19:00 sobersabre | I found an apparent typo. |
| 19:00 MT | btw, you can use mkdir -p $target/boot/grub |
| 19:00 MT | instead of the two mkdir calls |
| 19:01 sobersabre | does it also do nothing if they exist ? |
| 19:01 MT | yes |
| 19:01 MT | even more so, their existence does not cause an error |
| 19:01 sobersabre | good! |
| 19:01 sobersabre | :) |
| fai-guy (~fai-guy@e177228118.adsl.alicedsl.de) left irc: Quit: Leaving |
| 19:02 sobersabre | so, to the problem: I did create a custom menu.lst |
| fai-guy (~christian@e177228118.adsl.alicedsl.de) joined #fai. |
| 19:02 Mrfai | Normally it works without calling mkdir $target/boot/grub |
| 19:02 sobersabre | the only diff was the windows entry added in the end. |
| 19:02 sobersabre | and I renamed it from GRUB to WNODE |
| 19:02 Mrfai | sobersabre: try it using the default menu.lst. |
| 19:02 sobersabre | I will soon. |
| 19:03 MT | hmm, maybe /boot/grub isn't there if you don't have grub installed in the nfsroot? |
| 19:03 sobersabre | I saw the postinst script, and all it does is substitution of some strings in the default file. |
| 19:03 Mrfai | yep, that's ok |
| 19:03 sobersabre | I did run the installations before today, and there was no such problems. |
| 19:03 Mrfai | Use the default examples and check if they work. |
| 19:03 sobersabre | defaults worked. |
| 19:03 Mrfai | fine |
| 19:05 sobersabre | I am still waiting for the packages to install and configure.... |

| fai-guy (~christian@e177228118.adsl.alicedsl.de) joined #fai. |
| 19:07 Mrfai | sobersabre: I you have errors during an installation, try this installation with a short list of packages. This makes debugging faster. |
| 19:08 sobersabre | the whole thing takes upto 10-15 minutes |
| 19:08 sobersabre | if I cut the packages out, it takes 7-6 minutes. |
| 19:08 sobersabre | most of the time spend on mkfs'es. |
| 19:08 sobersabre | I could skip that too, but I've no time to mess this. |
| 19:08 sobersabre | :) |
| 19:08 Mrfai | undo the rename of GRUB to WNODE and test again |
| 19:08 sobersabre | I prefer slower iterations, more time to think. |
| 19:09 sobersabre | I will if current experiment fails. |
| 19:10 sobersabre | hmm.. |
| 19:10 sobersabre | who is this that calls postinst ? |
| 19:11 MT | fcopy |
| 19:11 MT | in case it copies the file |
| 19:11 sobersabre | so, if I call fcopy -i /boot/grub/menu.lst somewhere... it should do this. |
| 19:11 sobersabre | so, except the mkdir, I should also call fcopy then. |
| 19:11 sobersabre | another iteration :) |
| 19:12 sobersabre | the last one, I hope. |
| 19:13 sobersabre | is fcopy available in hooks/instsoft.FAIBASE ? |
| 19:13 sobersabre | will I be able to call it ? |
| 19:13 sobersabre | I mean successfully :) |
| 19:13 MT | yes, but I guess you shouldn't do this without a kernel being installed |
| 19:13 MT | do the call in one of the scripts |
| 19:13 sobersabre | the problem I have is that I don't want all machines to have windows boot option. |
| 19:14 sobersabre | I also don't want to add it manually after the installation. |
| 19:14 MT | have a script named WNODE |
| 19:14 sobersabre | I prefer it to be a part of recreation of the machine. |
| 19:14 MT | then it will be called for this class only |
| 19:14 sobersabre | so I edited file in files/boot/grub/menu.lst |
| 19:14 sobersabre | and called it WNODE |
| 19:15 MT | that's fine, too |
| 19:15 sobersabre | since then the kernel configuration fails, since there's no menu.lst created for some reason. |
| 19:15 sobersabre | so I now edited by Mrfai's suggestio |
| 19:15 sobersabre | so I now edited by Mrfai's suggestion the hooks/instsoft.WNODE and added the folder creation and fcopy call. |
| 19:19 sobersabre | I wonder about another thing. |
| 19:19 sobersabre | what's the future for FAI ? |
| 19:19 sobersabre | :) |
| 19:19 stockholm | sobersabre: hu? |
| 19:19 sobersabre | the present is nice. |
| 19:19 sobersabre | :) |
| 19:19 sobersabre | but what's next ? |
| 19:19 stockholm | sobersabre: there are several people working on it |
| 19:19 sobersabre | ok. |
| 19:20 sobersabre | is the "roadmap" avail somewhere ? |
| 19:20 stockholm | its in the wiki |
| 19:20 sobersabre | ok |
| 19:27 sobersabre | I've just ran svn co. |
| 19:27 sobersabre | I guess ths is only read-only account ( anonymous ) |
| 19:41 sobersabre | hmm... when does alioth *-guest stops being "guest" ? |
| 20:10 sobersabre | ok ... I have lots to read. |
| 20:11 sobersabre | Mrfai, the machine installed, btw |
