Now the client says a lot of things like "can't create /tmp/fai: read only filesystem" [08:54] the best is if you could put all this output onto paste.debian.net [08:54] In grub, I gave the kernel the option "nfsroot=IP:/srv/fai/nfsroot/live/filesystem.dir" [08:54] wrong [08:55] nfsroot=IP:/srv/fai/nfssroot [08:55] and boot-live [08:55] sorry, boot=live [08:55] this handle then ..../live/filesystem.dir [08:55] it didn't work that way...

[14:01] http://www.250kb.de/u/081106/j/7fd8f21c.jpg [14:01] this is what I get in the end [14:01] yes, I can type [14:04] siggg (~jean@91-172-141-197.rev.libertysurf.net) joined #fai.

[21:17] o, and file -b is what this version of FAI uses now, so my perl scripts return "perl script text executable" [21:20] nevermind, b just removes the file name, im confusing with an older version of the file command [21:31] hmm, i think this falls under bug # 504662, which is open in 3.2.14, though in my case I'm not using -w in my perl scripts...I'll add comments to the bug [22:13] mcarvalh: Heh, I was just about to point you at that bug report which I opened yesterday [22:17] is it possible to use FAI for non identical systems?
