[13:14] oh, it's not the syntax with ":" as in debconf-show :( [13:15] "exim4/mailname string $hostname", then? [13:17] Action: h01ger doubts you can [13:18] wtf... scripts/FAIBASE/40-misc messed up my /etc/mailname [13:18] it now has the proper fqdn on the first line, and "${HOSTNAME}" on the second line [13:24] shouldn't $HOSTNAME be defined automatically by FAI, and available in cfengine scripts? [13:32] ErKa (keryell@m6.wifi.enstb.org) left irc: Ping timeout: 480 seconds [14:21] i set it myself just to be sure. usually it's set to just the node name, not the fqdn. [14:23] siggg (~jean@tra78-5-88-172-128-32.fbx.proxad.net) left irc: Remote host closed the connection [14:28] yeah i just have a script doing "hostname --fqdn > /etc/mailname" now [14:30] ErKa (keryell@dhcp1.info.enstb.org) joined #fai. [14:37] a $FQDN variable would be nice then [14:38] Or just set hostname to the fqdn, that's what we do [14:38] FQDN=`hostname -f` ? [14:42] also, if you are doing non-linuxes (solaris, aix, etc), remember that any switches to hostname are GNUisms [14:44] siggg (~jean@tra78-5-88-172-128-32.fbx.proxad.net) joined #fai. [14:44] yes, i definitely need a version of FAI that supports solaris and aix as well :) [14:46] i would install gnutools on both right away [14:46] first thing [14:46] anyone have a pointer on how to rebuild the initrd? i want to put in some debugging output in the /scripts/live but apparently initrd isn't just a gzip'd cpio archive. [14:47] stockholm: That they are installed is no guarantee they are first in the path from various scipts. [14:47] Nick change: Stere0 -> Stereo [14:47] mgoetze: we do both of those, so.. [14:48] maswan: with fai? [14:48] Action: mgoetze hasn't even been able to get AIX CDs yet, boohoo :( [14:49] mgoetze: Yes. Well, base OS installed through "normal" means, but just with the very basics, then FAI for all the additional software and customisation [14:49] hm, interesting [14:50] I think we might even generate the solaris jumpstart configuration from FAI info, but I'm not sure. I'm not the one directly involved in that bit. :) [15:18] zirpu: If you chroot into the nfsroot you can rebuild the initrd using dpkg-reconfigure linux-image....

[17:41] gah! so i have a server with 2 broadcom interfaces. plugging both in so ipconfig doesn't hang seems to work. now i get a kernel panic during mountroot apparently. [17:41] no other clues sadly. getting closer though. [18:19] so definately having kernel panic in mountroot. i'm not sure how to diagnose this at this point. any pointers? [18:20] Nic0 (~courtel@fw.tls.cena.fr) left irc: Quit: Leaving. [18:45] zirpu: tcpdump on the nfs server? [18:50] add break=mount to the kernel command line (via fai-chboot for e.g.) [18:50] then you get the shell perompt of the initd and you can debug [18:50] what can i do to debug at that shell prompt? [19:07] call mount, ipconfig, read the file live.log,.... [19:07] sepone (~seppity@ti411310a080-3729.bb.online.no) joined #fai. [19:09] i'm not seeing a live.log file.

[21:32] ipconfig says no devices to configure, but ifconfig -a shows both eth0 and eth1. weird. [21:34] ah, ipconfig wants the device name as an arg. [21:42] so i think my problem is the 2 interface problem, and trying to boot and install off the 2nd interface. [21:43] well, i can use etch fai just fine with two interfaces...
