| 08:53 BScherrer | I hope I don't bother you here too much... ;) I succefully started a client with a cd and connected to the network FAI-server. Now the client says a lot of things like "can't create /tmp/fai: read only filesystem" |
| 08:54 Mrfai | the best is if you could put all this output onto paste.debian.net |
| 08:54 BScherrer | In grub, I gave the kernel the option "nfsroot=IP:/srv/fai/nfsroot/live/filesystem.dir" |
| 08:54 Mrfai | wrong |
| 08:55 Mrfai | nfsroot=IP:/srv/fai/nfssroot |
| 08:55 Mrfai | and boot-live |
| 08:55 Mrfai | sorry, boot=live |
| 08:55 Mrfai | this handle then ..../live/filesystem.dir |
| 08:55 BScherrer | it didn't work that way... |
| 08:56 BScherrer | it hangs on: "Begin: Running /script/nfs-premount .... Done." |
| 08:56 Mrfai | did you install live-initramfs into the nfsroot? |

| 13:36 BScherrer | "initrd /boot/initrd.img" |
| 13:46 Mrfai | ok looks good |
| 13:48 Mrfai | add debug as parameter, maybe you will see more output |
| 13:48 BScherrer | Mrfai: I player around a bit, and now the client tells me "nfs server not responding"... I'm not sure if I have all required packages installed. Nfsstat shows me no connections.., |

| 13:48 Mrfai | On your nfs server tyepe: rpcinfo -p localhost |
| 13:48 Mrfai | check if nfs amd mountd is there |
| 13:49 BScherrer | no "amd"! |
| 13:50 Mrfai | s/amd/and/ sorry my fault |
| 13:50 BScherrer | ah ;) ok, nfs and mountd are there |
| 13:51 Mrfai | nfs server not responding can occur once or twice, if there some timeout, but the the mount should work. |
| 13:51 Mrfai | Check if you see the mount request on the nfs server |
| 13:56 BScherrer | Mrfai: No... the client sometimes show "server not responding", but most of the times "mount: Device of resource busy" |
| siggg (~jean@tra78-1-87-88-161-80.dsl.club-internet.fr) left irc: Remote host closed the connection |
| 13:59 Mrfai | you can also try the official fai-cd iso image. Boot this CD, enter the grub edit mode, and change the nfsroot settings, than boot the CD. Maybe this works |
| 13:59 Mrfai | Do you get a shell prompt when booting fails? |
| 14:01 BScherrer | http://www.250kb.de/u/081106/j/7fd8f21c.jpg |
| 14:01 BScherrer | this is what I get in the end |
| 14:01 BScherrer | yes, I can type |
| siggg (~jean@91-172-141-197.rev.libertysurf.net) joined #fai. |
| 14:08 BScherrer | "mount" givesme : "10.245.40.54:/srv/fai/nfsroot on /root type nfs (ro,vers=3,rsize=32768,wsize=32768,hard,nolock,proto=tcp,timeo=7,retrans=10,sec=sys,addr=10.245.40.54)" |
| 14:14 BScherrer | I downloaded the fai-amd64 cd and changed the boot options in grub, but it makes no difference |

| 15:04 Mrfai | BScherrer: fine you get a shell prompt that makes debugging easier |
| 15:04 Mrfai | ok, seem that mount itself works |
| 15:06 Mrfai | I had the short read 0<28 in the past. I will check if I find the solution from the past |
| 15:08 Mrfai | BScherrer: the order of root=/dev/nfs boot=live is important. You order is wrong. This is at last what I found in old irc logs. |
| 15:09 BScherrer | ..!!! |

| 15:10 Mrfai | BScherrer: If you see the red ASCII logo, you are done. The rest is easy |
| 15:11 BScherrer | "mount: 10.245.40.54::/srv/fai/config failed, reason given by the server: Persmission denied" |
| 15:11 BScherrer | yes, I see it :) Thanks so much! Maybe you have a quick idea on the permission denied error? |
| 15:12 Mrfai | /etc/exports |
| 15:28 BScherrer | Mrfai: ok, I'll figure that out (want to permit everyone, but * doesn't seem to work), but this will be minor problems :) Thank you very much for helping me out that much!!! |

| 21:07 mcarvalh | On FAI 3.2.11, I see that none of my perl scripts in my FAI config are being executed |
| 21:08 mcarvalh | they allfail with the message: <file> has unsupported type a /usr/bin/perl script text executable |
| 21:09 mcarvalh | which doesnt make sense, because i think fai-do-scripts matches anything that spits out "perl script" from the file command |
| 21:12 mcarvalh | actually, it matches *"perl*script"* , so now im really confused as to why it doesnt work... |
| 21:17 mcarvalh | o, and file -b is what this version of FAI uses now, so my perl scripts return "perl script text executable" |
| 21:20 mcarvalh | nevermind, b just removes the file name, im confusing with an older version of the file command |
| 21:31 mcarvalh | 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 puck | mcarvalh: Heh, I was just about to point you at that bug report which I opened yesterday |
| 22:17 polemon | is it possible to use FAI for non identical systems? |
| 23:21 puck | polemon: Yes, you just need to make your class detection stuff a bit more complicated. |
