| 08:50 mikap | Mrfai: morning :) is there *any* chance to make parallel execution of several fai dirinstall instances possible? |
| 09:04 rhce7321 | I have screwed my brain trying to get fai to run on a 3rd NIC on an edubuntu server. Anybody willing to offer (constructive) advice? |
| 09:04 Mrfai | Mmmm. IIRC, currently the problem is that lock-files are created tpo prevent this. Maybe we should create those lock files on a per destination basis |
| 09:04 Mrfai | this was for mikap |
| 09:05 rhce7321 | sorry. |

| 09:44 Mrfai | mikap: maybe you can file a wishlist bug for that |
| 09:46 mikap | Mrfai: sure, will do - against which package? |
| 09:59 Mrfai | mikap: fai-client should be the right one |

| 10:06 rhce7321 | should fai-mirror create more top-level dirs than aptcache? |
| 10:06 rhce7321 | should it also create pool & dist ?? |
| 10:08 rhce7321 | Is this the right forum to ask for assistance, or am I in the wrong place... or the wrong time??? |
| 10:09 oz_ | right place, not the wrong time |
| 10:10 rhce7321 | tnx |
| 10:10 oz_ | but you need some time /me is working, also |
| 10:32 rhce7321 | I think I have unbroken 1 step. I think my local mirror was trying to build from itself. When I had FAI_DEBOOTSTRAP pointing to the local mirror & ran fai-mirror /srv/fai/debmirror I got: |
| 10:32 rhce7321 | http://pastebin.com/d4c84eb02 |
| 10:33 rhce7321 | I pointed ˙FAI_DEBOOTSTRAP to a public mirror & fai-mirror appears to be working. |
| 10:35 Mrfai | FAI_DEBOOTSTRAP should not point to the mirror you are just building with fai-mirror. |
| 10:38 rhce7321 | Looks like my local mirror built OK now. |
| 10:39 rhce7321 | Next I try make-fai-nfs-mirror with /etc/fai/apt/sources.list pointing to the local mirror? |
| 10:40 rhce7321 | ... or do I alter ˙FAI_DEBOOTSTRAP to point to the local mirror? |
| 10:40 rhce7321 | ... or both? |
| 10:42 Mrfai | I your mirror was build correctly, it should work to point both to your local mirror. But I've never tried this. |

| 20:37 teratoma | h01ger: im running lenny/testing . i only see backports for etch, etch-backports . |
| 20:38 h01ger | ah, i thought you wanted to use etch |
| 20:38 h01ger | so your hardware doesnt work in lenny, but in sid? |
| 20:40 teratoma | my dell server has a broadcom nic. in etch, the nic is seen fine by the default kernel. in lenny, you need to install the firmware for the broadcom driver from unstable non-free . |
| 20:42 h01ger | yeah |
| 20:42 h01ger | same in sid |
| 20:42 h01ger | so why dont you just do so and solve your problem? ;) |
| 20:43 teratoma | i dont know how to muck around with my /etc/apt/preferences during the initial fai install. i guess i'll mess around then |
| 20:43 h01ger | look at /etc/fai/apt/sources.list |
| 20:43 h01ger | notice the "/fai" in that path |
| 20:44 h01ger | add non-free there |
| 20:44 teratoma | yes. if i stick a 'preferences' into /fai , will that get copied to each client ? |
| Action: h01ger thinks so |
| 20:44 teratoma | i dont want to upgrade everything to sid/unstable,i just want the driver |
| 20:44 h01ger | would have to read the code to be sure |
| 20:44 teratoma | i guess ill find out |
| 20:44 h01ger | lenny is fine |
| 20:44 h01ger | you dont need sid |
| 20:45 h01ger | and if you stay with etch, bpo has the firmware and the kernel |
| 20:45 teratoma | so you think i can find the broadcom driver in lenny ? |
| 20:45 h01ger | yes |
| 20:45 h01ger | same package as in sid |
| 20:45 teratoma | nah ive decided to throw caution to the wind and go with lenny |
