[10:04] Version: 3.2.20 [10:04] guys im keep getting PXE - TFTP open timeout [10:04] how to solve that [10:04] DarKnesS_WolF: pastebin the output of make-fai-nfsroot -v [10:05] incognitu: ur tftp settings is wrong [10:05] incognitu: first step, check (i.e. with tcpdump) whether tftp packets are actually arriving on your server [10:05] check the IP and that hte tftp server is running on port 69 [10:08] the client recieves a dhcp adres [10:09] incognitu: make sure that u do not have another dhcp running [10:09] and make sure that the tftp is really running [10:09] dhcp is just running once [10:10] i only have the tftpd-hpa package [10:11] now its running [10:11] let me test [10:12] Starting HPA's tftpd: in.tftpdlinuxsrv4:~# but not in process list [10:16] mgoetze: http://pastebin.ca/1415173 <-- but not all teh packages is showen too much to copy from a remote server [10:19] oh, ubuntu [10:20] Couldn't find any package whose name or description matched "aufs-modules-server" [10:21] update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-2.6.27-7-server [10:21] cpio: ./sbin/udevtrigger: Cannot stat: No such file or directory [10:21] DarKnesS_WolF: found your problem ^^ [10:22] WolfiE (~sherif@196.219.214.65) joined #fai.

[11:42] with networking restart? [11:42] incognitu: you should start using the default kernel. If this works, then go one step futher and use your own kernel. But it's easier to first use the default kernel. [11:42] yes ok [11:43] incognitu: maybe you should also get some networking basics. inetd needs a HUP signal if you have made chenged to inetd.conf [11:48] im a beginner true ;) [11:49] ok works now ty [11:49] the tftp part [11:53] if you are a beginner, do not change anything in the default FAI setup, unless you have successfully installed a machine using the simple example. [11:54] Mrfai: No, thank you for the software! [11:55] Mrfai: intrepid [12:24] lol [12:24] now i am getting /init: line 14 wc: not found !

[12:41] mm i keep getting no file found on tftp boot [12:41] with trying the chapter 2 quickstart [12:42] incognitu: did you configure the tftp server to use the correct base directory?

[12:57] yup [12:57] /srv/tftp/fai [12:57] yup [12:57] i think you should change the OPTIONS line to [12:57] OPTIONS="-v -l -s /srv/tftp/fai" [12:57] ok done [12:58] restart tftpd , try to fai again [12:58] try to fai :-) [12:58] "I can't get no - Installation! And I fai, and I fai...I can't get no...?" ;) [12:59] i think when you install fai it should go and edit the default dir line in /etc/default/tftpd-hpa , but that's just me [12:59] nice it works [13:00] but old kernel is loading 26.2xxx [13:01] i have 2.29 [13:02] my system running current lenny is running 2.6.26-2-amd64 [13:03] making fai install your custom kernel is going to take a little more work, that ive never gotten to work right [13:03] Linux linuxsrv4 2.6.29.1 #1 SMP Tue Apr 14 14:55:59 CEST 2009 i686 GNU/Linux [13:03] im running [13:03] but it is possible? [13:03] your own kernel? running testing? yes its possible. harder though [13:04] hmm ok [13:04] this kernel running stable as hell [13:05] that's not a custom kernel ? [13:07] no [13:09] i have no idea how you ended up running 2.6.29 then [13:10] you sure you aren't running debian sid/unstable ? [13:11] ah its a custom sorry [13:12] the 2.6.26.1 had cifs bugs [13:12] dunno about 26.2 tho [13:16] what files i need to edit if i want to changes eg the sources.list file? [13:18] Nic0 (~courtel@fw.tls.cena.fr) joined #fai. [13:18] do you mean the sources.list file installed on the client? look in /etc/fai/apt/ [13:23] hmm [13:23] i thought fai installes the image on the client [13:23] but it just boots tru network [13:23] no hard disk needed [13:25] it sticks a kernel on the client through PXE, yes [13:26] have to mount harddisk automatically? [13:26] you can install stuff onto diskless clients, ive never done it though, its a little harder [13:27] not sure what you mean. do your fai clients have a hard drive ? [13:27] have fun, i have to go to work [13:28] ok thx for your help [13:29] sep_lpt (~sep@93.94.9.3) left irc: Quit: Leaving [13:39] First, the hard disks will be [13:39] partitioned, file systems are created and then software packages are installed. After that, the [13:39] new installed operating system is configured to your local needs using some scripts. Finally [13:39] the new operating system will be booted from the local disk. [13:39] but how can i execute that script? [13:42] which script? [13:42] rcS_fai cant find it [13:42] that script does the above [13:43] tempel (~mettler@dsl-62-220-14-162.berlikomm.net) joined #fai. [13:44] After the kernel is loaded, the FAI startup script performs [13:44] the automatic installation which doesn’t need any interaction. [13:44] says the manual [13:44] here it just loads the kernel and thats it [13:46] what do you mean, that's it? [13:46] does it fail to mount the nfs root? [13:47] incognitu: please put the log file of make-fai-nfsroot -v or fai-setup -v onto paste.debian.net. Then we can check if this was done correctly [13:47] ok hold on [13:54] Anybody have any working LVM setup-storage examples? [13:56] ahh, found them [13:57] huhu, i have a custom installkernel. 'reboot' doesn't work, only 'reboot -f' -any hints how i might fix this ? (im trying things like acp/apm kernel params...) [14:01] make-fai-nfsroot i need to run on the client? [14:01] i didnt read anything on that in the manual [14:04] no, on the server [14:04] incognitu: I think you should read the whole manual before going on. [14:06] ._O [14:27] yes i have the pdf [14:27] started on chapter 1 [14:27] :) [14:36] Is there any way to set setup-storage to blank the partition table before hand? I've been testing out different config and it seems to be loading up the volume group that was previously created, which hence causes the partitioner to fail [14:41] Joelio: dd if=/dev/zero of= count=10 bs=1024k will wipe it out. [14:51] oz_ Yea, I'm aware of that.. just wondered if there was some kind of blanking option withing setup-storage itself.. no bother though, nailed down the install now and all is good :) [14:52] i.i.r.c. you can just wipe the first 512 bytes to remove the partition table too...

[16:17] in a standard setup you just need to edit /etc/fai/NFSROOT (and possibly /etc/fai/apt/sources.list). i don't use fai-cd, so can't comment on that [16:18] ok, cheers.. I'll have a poke [16:22] chrooted into the nfsroot, installed firmware.. well, the iso's larger than the last.. looks good so far, time for the boot!
