[08:13] I resolved my problem of yesterday, by default, inet.d is listening on ipv6 [08:15] I just changed the /etc/inetd.conf with " tftp dgram udp4 wait root /usr/sbin/in.tftpd in.tftpd -s /srv/tftp/fai" [08:17] cool :) [08:17] yes but I have a new problem :-p [08:18] don't say you have a problem, say your problem [08:18] :) [08:18] I have a new error "NFS over TCP not available from 172.27.231.18" [08:19] http://bit.ly/RNrK6 [08:19] yes already checked [08:19] :( [08:19] sounds nasty [08:19] personnally no idea [08:25] @JulienDev: Have you modified your /etc/exports for nfs? [08:26] no [08:26] check it [08:26] I'm in [08:26] ErKa (~keryell@93.3.22.146) joined #fai. [08:26] does it have the two lines of export that it should have? [08:27] yes but with a wrong ip address [08:27] there u go [08:28] it's ok [08:28] I need to restart any service? [08:29] yes [08:29] nfs-kernel whatever [08:29] ^_^ [08:32] JulienDev: if you want to be on the safe side, restart portmap, then nfs-common, then nfs-kernel-server. check whether the current configuration is correct with 'showmount -e' [08:33] Is it possible to make interactive packages (e.g: samba pops up a screen so u can choose a couple of options) non-interactive for fai installation? [08:40] not better [08:42] teratoma (~teratoma@i.dont.get.mad.i.get.stabby.net) left irc: Quit: leaving [08:43] what is the erro now? [08:43] I have "mount call failed : 13" [08:44] @edoreld: google for dpkg or apt and non-interactive; but I`m installing samba packages and there is no interactive screen during install and as far as i know we haven`t changed anything in fai for that.... [08:44] kai_bo: was just testing it, it seems fai makes it non-interactive [08:44] edoreld: read the fai guide, and also debconf(7) [08:44] kai_bo: but installing from command line is another story [08:44] ErKa (~keryell@93.3.22.146) left irc: Ping timeout: 480 seconds [08:44] thanks, but luckily fai makes all the work for me :D [08:45] you should read debconf(7) anyway, if you want to use fai to maximum effect [08:45] alright [08:45] Will od :) [08:45] will do :) [08:45] hmm no "man 7 debconf" ... [08:46] was missing debconf-doc package ^_^ [08:47] @JulienDev: this usually indicates a permission problem, for example your client tries to mount something your server does not export [08:48] and no it is breakfast time for me ^^ [08:49] humm ok [08:49] ErKa (~keryell@93.3.22.146) joined #fai.

[09:24] is that the one connected to the fai client? [09:24] yep [09:24] -.- [09:24] but after mount: I/O error, it's written done [09:25] charles (~charles@84.92.223.222) joined #fai. [09:29] Hi, this is the senario we have. server with 6 disk bays, bay 1 will always contain the OS. Disk bay 2 to 6 (DATA only) plain ext3 disk, but not always bays from 2 to 6 are used, sometimes we can have 2 data disk or 4 data disk, what is the best way to configure disk_config, thank you. [09:39] just have different disk_config/files names logically and make sure the right servers get the right classes assigned that match the file in disk_config [09:40] eg disk_config/SINGLEOS and have servers that you only have 1 disk in get the class SINGLEOS. if i have some disk configs that are uniqe for a machine i usualy use the disk_config/serverhostname to make it easy to find it in the disk_config dir. [10:06] ErKa (~keryell@93.3.22.146) left irc: Ping timeout: 480 seconds [10:07] SEP : thank you for the suggestion. as I undestand I need to compile 6 iso , 1 iso for each senario !

I see it running when the client gets installed, but it always give some kind of error O_o ( FAILED with exit code 1) [11:34] and the script is just a simple one [11:34] edoreld: so, read your logfiles... [11:34] echo "test" > /home/testfile [11:34] hm ok I'll check [11:34] edoreld: you may mean $target/home/testfile [11:34] $target? [11:34] edoreld: or possible $rootcmd echo ... [11:34] erhm... [11:34] what's the value of $rootcmd? [11:35] depends... [11:35] ok.. [11:35] then why $target/home... ? [11:35] if im executing from client, aren't i supposed to have access to the filesystem? [11:35] if you are doing an installation then $rootcmd is probably "chroot $target" [11:36] hmmm... [11:37] supposedly the installation logs are in /tmp/fai but nothing is there for me [11:37] found some logs somewhere else...let me see [11:38] log says same thing I'm afraid :/ [11:39] FAILED with exit code 1 [11:39] /var/log/fai/current/shell.log [11:39] says [11:39] read-only file system [11:40] that's why it fails [11:40] yes, as i said... [11:41] did you say [11:41] $rootcmd echo "test" ... will work? [11:42] maybe... you want $target, really [11:42] ok, so $target [11:42] but if I want to run more than 1 commands? [11:42] like [11:43] echo "whatever" [11:43] cp whatever whatever [11:43] etc lots more [11:43] man fcopy [11:43] I'll take a look, ^_^ [11:46] salli_merci (~i.like@141.28.72.139) left irc: Quit: client.close(); [11:49] hmm using $target echo "test" > / does not work either :/ [11:51] i told you how to use it [11:51] echo "test" > $target/home/testfile [11:57] ah [11:57] I'll try that, thank you ^_^ [11:59] @edoreld: I would suggest you also better take a look at the scripts already provided with fai; Some are really self-explaning about which variables and command are availabe and how they are used [12:00] kai_bo: of course, great idea! :D [12:01] kai_bo: es ist freitag, my mind is dancing on a club already :) some sleep wouldn't be bad as well :P [12:03] sleep is absolutely overrated...just get more coffee ;) [12:04] meh, not a coffee slurper here ^_^ [12:04] und wasser is nicht gut - and water is not good (I translated because I'm not sure you are german -.- [12:04] ) [12:05] JulienDev (56d21958@webchat.mibbit.com) left irc: Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client [12:08] Action: mgoetze drinks coke [12:10] @edoreld: german, so no translation needed ;) [12:11] Action: kai_bo drinks coffee and wants beer ;) [12:11] heh [12:12] doesn't Germany have the tradition of meeting fridays to drink because it's friday!
