[08:36] <verwilst> hellow!
[08:37] <verwilst> when i try to view the FAI install with SOL ( ipmi ) i can see the BIOS boot and such, but the last line i see is "Loading vmlinuz-2.6.26-1-amd64.....................Ready."
[08:37] <verwilst> then nothing
[08:38] <verwilst> i tried setting console=ttyS0 and such, to no avail
[08:38] <verwilst> any ideas maybe?
[08:38] <oz_> verwilst: ipmi is just service
[08:38] <verwilst> when i tcpdump the nfs server i see that it is starting to use NFS
[08:38] <verwilst> oz_: sure
[08:39] <verwilst> but somehow the redirection is not behaving like it should
[08:39] <verwilst> and i'm running out of ideas on how to fix it :)
[08:39] <verwilst> it's hard to debug the fai session if i can't see what's happening :)
[08:41] <oz_> http://www.brueck-computer.de/index2.php?modul=1403&link=1
[08:41] <oz_> it's nothing with FAI
[08:41] Mrfai (~lange@suenner.informatik.uni-koeln.de) joined #fai.
[08:41] <verwilst> oz_: that was my guess, but this channel was a good start, since others might have encountered this :)
[08:42] <oz_> and I wonder what box you use
[08:42] <oz_> I just know ipmi for the Sun VX0z
[08:42] <verwilst> it's a dell
[08:42] <oz_> verwilst: I read the text from the link above and all went well after fiddling
[08:43] <verwilst> i tried the console=tty0 console=ttyS0,9600n8 before ( as far as i can understand german :) )
[08:43] <oz_> oh. :)
[08:43] <oz_> I can look for an english version
[08:43] ErKa (keryell@keryell.pck.nerim.net) left irc: Quit: Client exiting
[08:43] <verwilst> but with another baudrate.. could it be this?
[08:43] Action: verwilst tries
[08:44] ErKa (keryell@keryell.pck.nerim.net) joined #fai.
[08:49] <sepski> how can you enforce a nic order during fai boot? one nic can pxeboot, but the booted linux kernel preferes a different nic as eth0, and hence it never get ip and mount nfs after the initial kernel+initrd tftp transfer. 
[08:50] <verwilst> hm, still can't see anything, this is annoying :P
[08:51] <oz_> verwilst: what box are you using?
[08:51] <verwilst> oz_: a Dell one?
[08:51] <oz_> are you using ttyS0 for ipmi?
[08:52] <verwilst> i tried ttyS1 as well, which just gave funky chars instead of silence :)
[08:52] <oz_> ah
[08:52] <oz_> funky chars is an improvemnt here
[08:52] <oz_> I'd test some baudrates
[08:53] <verwilst> myeah that's what i thought
[08:53] <oz_> maybe dell want 38400 or so
[08:53] <verwilst> does that really make that much difference?
[08:53] <verwilst> how 80's ;)
[08:54] <oz_> verwilst: just like vintage computing and you're fine...psychologically. ;)
[08:54] <oz_> technically, it's a mess I agree.
[08:54] <oz_> +,
[09:00] <verwilst> oz_: ok, so it was ttyS1
[09:00] <verwilst> i checked the BIOS setup thingy
[09:00] <verwilst> changed baud to 115200
[09:00] <verwilst> and see garbage scrolling :P
[09:00] <verwilst> ( that was the setting in the BIOS )
[09:00] <verwilst> maybe it's the n8?
[09:04] <oz_> I understand you correctly, this are okay now?

[09:31] <sepski> for some reason dm-mod is not loaded in the fai booted kernel. 
[09:44] <sepski> argh a unused disk2 not used in the disk_config, did have lvm data on it. and it fscked with the lvm system when setup-storage tried to do lvm operations on disk1
[09:49] <verwilst> oz_: it works!
[09:50] <verwilst> setting bad to 57600
[09:50] <verwilst> baud*
[09:50] <verwilst> fixes it
[09:50] <verwilst> ancient crap
[09:50] <verwilst> :P
[09:51] <verwilst> oz_: thanks for the help

[11:34] <oz_> verwilst: is "boot=live" used as boot arg?
[11:34] <oz_> what version of FAI are ou using?
[11:34] <verwilst> 3.2.16
[11:35] <oz_> boot=live?
[11:35] <Mrfai> always use fai-chboot to create the pxelinux.cfg files
[11:35] <verwilst> append ip=dhcp FAI_CONFIG_SRC=nfs://10.129.32.91/srv/fai/config  FAI_ACTION=install root=/dev/nfs FAI_FLAGS=verbose,sshd,syslog,debug,createvt nfsroot=10.129.32.91:/srv/fai/nfsroot/live/filesystem.dir/ console=tty0  console=ttyS1,57600
[11:35] <verwilst> oh, i copied it from a previous install
[11:36] <oz_> add "boot=live" to it
[11:37] <Mrfai> verwilst: your nfsroot parameter is wrong. Use fai-chboot
[11:37] <verwilst> ok :)
[11:42] <verwilst> hm
[11:42] <verwilst> not many nfs options on fai-chboot so it seems
[11:43] <verwilst> aha
[11:44] <verwilst> boot=live is inthere now
[11:44] <verwilst> which shouldnt be?
[11:50] <verwilst> Kernel parameters: ip=dhcp root=/dev/nfs nfsroot=/srv/fai/nfsroot/live/filesystem.dir boot=live FAI_FLAGS=verbose,sshd,reboot console=tty0 console=ttyS1,57600 FAI_ACTION=install BOOT_IMAGE=bzImage-2.6.25.4
[11:50] <verwilst> i added the "console=tty0 console=ttyS1,57600 FAI_ACTION=install" myself
[11:50] <verwilst> still the same though
[11:52] <verwilst> Mrfai: what's wrong with my nfsroot param?
[11:52] <verwilst> the system is inthere
[12:01] <oz_> nfsroot=/srv/fai/nfsroot/ should do the trick
[12:01] <oz_> the rest is expanded automatically from boot=live#
[12:01] <oz_> boot=live, even.

[13:24] <verwilst> hm, let me try oz_
[13:25] <verwilst> so it will automatically append live/filesystem.dir to it?
[13:25] <verwilst> what if i want 2 distros?
[13:25] <verwilst> like /srv/fai/nfsroot/lenny and etch?
[13:25] <verwilst>  /srv/fai/nfsroot/lenny/live/filesystem.dir?
[13:26] <verwilst> and nfsroot=/srv/fai/nfsroot/lenny?
[13:26] <Mrfai> verwilst: use fai-chboot, never append live/filesystem.dir. boot=live will do the trick for you

[13:28] <Mrfai> please use fai-chboot
[13:29] <verwilst> i did! :)
[13:30] <Mrfai> ok. are there any errors when building the nfsroot?
[13:31] <verwilst> could it be because i'm using a bzImage without initrd?
[13:31] <verwilst> the default 2.6.26-1 kernel doesnt boot so
[13:31] kai_bo (~kai@statdsl-085-016-072-173.ewe-ip-backbone.de) left irc: Quit: Verlassend
[13:32] <Mrfai> yep. you should use a plain debian kerne with initrd. Do not build a kernel on your own, if it is not really needed

[13:49] <verwilst> the nfsroot was fine iirc
[13:49] <verwilst> but i'll rebuild :)
[13:50] <verwilst> oz_: does it need any special options i'm not aware of?

[13:55] <oz_> yes, okay

[14:05] <Mrfai> verwilst: can you see if the kernel detects a network card? are there two network cards in your computer?
[14:06] <verwilst> hm
[14:06] <verwilst> let me see
[14:18] <verwilst> is there that much difference between fai 3.1.8 and 3.2.16?
[14:18] <verwilst> all of this worked in the 3.1.8
[14:18] <verwilst> the nfs root was directly in /srv/fai/nfsroot
[14:19] <verwilst> and it's the same initrd-less bzImage that i'm trying to use
[14:19] <Mrfai> http://www.informatik.uni-koeln.de/fai/NEWS
[14:21] <verwilst> hm
[14:22] <verwilst> the standard debian kernel seems to choke on some firmware crap of the bnx2 driver
