[13:25] it should [13:35] when I run Fai-cd , it fail to install the grub at the end see http://paste.debian.net/7887 [13:36] my usb look like that Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System [13:36] /dev/sdb1 1 1022 1964253 83 Linux [14:18] CharlesB: do you havfe the usb stick mounted? [14:18] as written in the man page... [14:18] ? [14:19] yes, and it does copy all the files expect it can not install the grup, the man pagw ?? [14:20] I use #mount /dev/sdb usb [14:20] hmm, I only know that behaviour from when I tried to create the usb contents in a normal directory [14:20] interesting to know !! [14:22] could it be because I m using VMWARE ? [14:22] you have a physical usb stick, and hand it over into a vmware VM? [14:22] YES [14:23] does it work [14:23] hmm, it _should_ look like a real, normal usb stick inside the VM, too, I guess... [14:23] but from all I know about virtualizations stuff, it never really is 100% :) [14:24] I don't know exactlxy how the fai usb stuff works, but I believe, it determines from the mount info of the mounted directory, where it has to install grub [14:24] is it a big job to install grub myself [14:25] if your mount is just normal, as you wrote above, and mount info looks "normal", that should work... [14:25] hmm I'm always happy when I don't have to deal with grub stuff - but it should just be ony or two commands ... [14:26] can we burn an iso to usb stick maybe it is better option [14:27] CharlesB: I don't know if that might work. but you lose the upside of the usb thing, namely that you can change the contents without re-making the whole stick. [14:27] iso fs cannot be changed, just completely recreated [14:31] I am stuck ? [14:31] no, i said you can install grub manually, only I don't have the command at hand... [14:31] please read docs of grub-install and try... [14:31] ok ? [14:31] thanks [14:32] after running the fai-cd I can see the the folfer /boot/grub/ ?

[17:18] I'm using FAI 3.2.4 from Ubuntu [17:18] I'm still very shaky on the concepts, so I don't know where to debug the problem I'm having [17:19] I installed the example "simple" configuration [17:19] Hi ;-) [17:20] lazyb0y_: The SSL cert of https://listi.jpberlin.de/mailman/listinfo/fai-dev-workshop is broken...

[17:38] mcarvalh (~mcarvalh@144-212-103-38.mathworks.com) joined #fai. [17:39] is it possible to build a lenny client using the FAI packages 3.1.8 from etch? [17:40] if so, how would one go about this? is it really tricky? [17:42] mcarvalh: you need tpo build a base image for lenny, put it into basefiles in your configspace (or write a script that fetches it into the configspace at install time) [17:42] and then check that your packages lists etc. are correct for lenny package names [17:42] it's basically the same thing as if you'd install ubuntu by the "multi-distribution" howto's [17:44] and you need debootstrap > 1 for lenny and others - it won't bootstrap correctly with the default available on etch... [17:46] ok thanks. ill look up those how-to's [17:46] I ask because as I see it, Lenny FAI isnt working 100% right...it still has the unionfs problem, correct? [17:48] though the last time i tried it, it was with 3.2.7.. im updating to 3.2.8 now [17:49] mcarvalh: it's likely, yes. fai is heavily depending on kernel-near features for this stuff, and it's not really usefule to debug it for .24, as it seems clear that at least .25 will get in... [17:49] I guess updating FAI doesn't help there [17:49] you can still use 3.2.8 with Etch, also [17:50] at least 3.2.6 worked fine, I didn't test .7 and .8 yet [17:50] but would that let me build a lenny client without the unionfs problem? [17:51] id like to be able to get lenny out to my company (with all of our customizations) before stable releases [17:51] and itd be nice to not have to configure them by hand [17:53] do we have any idea when 2.6.25 will be in? [17:58] mcarvalh: what? fai 3.2.8 or the newer kernel? [17:59] if you have an existing etch install server, I'd recommend using this and go the basefiles approach, and not worry about lennies kernel [17:59] and no, I have no idea about kernel schedules for lenny [18:18] ok, thanks. I'll try the etch basefiles approach. [20:08] mludi42 (~quspock@193.126.192.79) joined #fai. [20:08] mludi42 (quspock@193.126.192.79) left #fai.
