| 08:47 za3tout | Hi every body |
| 08:48 za3tout | i have a probleme after running the FAI from cdFai.iso |
| kai_bo (~kai@statdsl-085-016-072-173.ewe-ip-backbone.de) joined #fai. |
| 08:49 microtux | za3tout, hi, which problem ? |
| 08:50 za3tout | the FAI run normally,but after rebooting i have this prompt "grub>" what this mean?? |
| 08:51 za3tout | shall i modify the file menu.lst |
| 08:51 microtux | za3tout, when the installation is finished, you have a terminal (CTRL+ALT+F2) |
| 08:52 microtux | za3tout, there you can view the /tmp/fai/* logfile on the installed machine, what does the logs say ? |
| 08:52 za3tout | just a minut |
| 08:53 za3tout | first what can the login and the passwd can be |
| 08:54 microtux | after the installation is finished, (CTRL+ALT+F2) gives you a new terminal |
| 08:54 microtux | and it does not ask you for a login/passwd |
| 08:54 za3tout | yes |
| mfl_ (~mfl@adonis.fnb.maschinenbau.tu-darmstadt.de) joined #fai. |
| 08:55 za3tout | no it ask for |
| 08:56 za3tout | makes " debian login: " |
| 08:56 microtux | are you using a virtaul machine ? |
| 08:56 za3tout | yes |
| mfl (~mfl@adonis.fnb.maschinenbau.tu-darmstadt.de) left irc: Ping timeout: 480 seconds |
| 08:57 microtux | ok, it's probably a new terminal on your PC, not on the VM |
| 08:57 za3tout | yes i think so |
| 08:57 microtux | type (CTRL+ALT+F7) to return back to the X |
| 08:58 za3tout | good now |
| 08:58 microtux | and on the VM just type (ALT+F2) withou CTRL |
| 08:59 za3tout | it didnt work |
| 08:59 microtux | nice :) , the logs now |
| 09:00 microtux | /tmp/fai/* |
| 09:01 za3tout | no i say it didn't work |
| 09:02 za3tout | i have the same --> "grub>" |
| 09:04 mgoetze | za3tout: well you'll have to find out how to send ctrl-alt-f2 to your vm without the host system intercepting it, or boot the vm disk image with a live cd and look at /var/log/fai |
| 09:08 za3tout | i think that i should rboot and ran alt+f2 |
| 09:08 za3tout | just a minut |
| 09:08 mgoetze | well if you reboot the logs under /tmp will be gone |
| 09:08 mgoetze | you'll have to get at the installed image and check the logs under /var/log/fai |
| 09:10 za3tout | i found many logs under /tmp/fai/ |
| 09:10 za3tout | what i will see now |
| 09:10 oz__ | za3tout: after installaltion, these logs are copied... |
| 09:11 mgoetze | check software.log to see whether you even tried to install something called linux-image, and if so, what went wrong... |
| 09:12 za3tout | yes and now* |
| 09:16 microtux | what does the software.log say ? |
| 09:18 za3tout | there is a message which told: couldn't find any package whose name or description matched "linux-image-486" |
| 09:18 za3tout | what this mean |
| 09:18 mgoetze | it means you tried to install a package which doesn't exist |
| 09:19 za3tout | yes ! how to correct it |
| 09:19 microtux | za3tout, mgoetze, i have the same problem too |
| 09:19 mgoetze | incidentally, my lenny system knows about a linux-image-486 package |
| 09:19 microtux | when i do 'apt-cache search linux-image-486' it says that the package is available on the repository |
| 09:20 microtux | i don't know why FAI is unable to retrieve it form the repository |
| 09:21 za3tout | shall we make it in some file to take it in consideratio |
| 09:22 mgoetze | so, is the /etc/apt/sources.list in your chroot correct? |
| 09:23 za3tout | i don't think so sources.list to make the url from where we can get the packages |
| 09:25 za3tout | but there a file under /srv/fai/config/package_config called FAIBASE i have it there |
| 09:25 za3tout | i mean the line linux-image-486 |
| 09:27 za3tout | and i have it in the repository |
| 09:27 za3tout | what is wrong then? |
| 09:27 mgoetze | your install system is accessing the wrong repository, perhaps? |
| 09:29 Mrfai | I'm using this kernel package: linux-image-2.6-686 |
| 09:30 Mrfai | are you using apt-proxy? |
| 09:31 za3tout | yes may be .because all the missing packages mentionned in the log file are in the FAIBASE |
| 09:31 za3tout | no i use the apt-get |
| 09:35 za3tout | sorry it is aptitude i think this the same |
| 09:36 microtux | za3tout, in your chroot, what's the content of /etc/apt/sources.list ? |
| 09:38 za3tout | the adress of my repository |
| 09:42 oz__ | does this repo contain a kernel? |
| 09:43 microtux | cat <path_to_your_nfsroot>/etc/apt/sources.list |
| 10:02 microtux | i think i knew where the problem is |
| 10:03 microtux | during the installation process, my NIC has a static IP, it should obtain an IP from DHCP server to be able to access my local repository |
| 10:04 microtux | hwo can i configure FAI to obtain an IP from DHCP during install process ? any idea ? |
| 10:04 microtux | oz__, mgoetze any idea ? |
| 10:05 oz__ | hm. that's the default |
| 10:05 oz__ | when you boot with ip=dhcp , iirc |
| 10:05 oz__ | microtux: you currently boot from CD? |
| 10:06 oz__ | just change the boot options when grub is active |
| 10:06 microtux | oz__, yes, i boot from cd |
| 10:06 microtux | how |
| 10:07 oz__ | boot from CD an press 'e' when you see the boot menu |
| 10:07 microtux | ok, then ? |
| kardan (~kardan@p54BE3385.dip.t-dialin.net) joined #fai. |
| 10:08 microtux | i think i found it, thnx i'll try with it |
| 10:08 oz__ | do you see an "ip=<some_ip_address" entry? |
| 10:08 oz__ | change that to ip=dhcp |
| 10:09 microtux | ok |
| 10:09 oz__ | or was it ip=auto? |
| 10:09 microtux | no it was ip=192.168.1.1 |
| 10:10 mgoetze | microtux: for me dhcp is automatically involved, but then i don't do anything with fai-cd ;) |
| 10:10 oz__ | mgoetze: fai-cd roxx ;) |
| 10:11 mgoetze | i'm sure it does, i just have no use for it :) |
| 10:32 microtux | mgoetze, oz__ i'm not trying to to do a netboot, so i don't think that ip=dhcp should resolve the problem |
| 10:32 microtux | i'm trying to perform an installation with a cd, so during install process, FAI should obtain an IP adress from DHCP, not when booting |
| 10:35 mgoetze | microtux: well as you see by default /etc/fai/make-fai-nfsroot.conf has FAI_DEBOOTSTRAP_OPTS="--exclude=dhcp-client,info" |
| 10:36 mgoetze | i'm not sure how this translates to fai-cd as i have no experience with that |
| 10:37 microtux | ok, i'll include dhcp-client and rebuild an iso |
| 10:37 oz__ | microtux: that's not the prob |
| 10:38 mgoetze | you might also need to change the init process or put something in a class or hook script |
| 10:38 oz__ | ah |
| 10:38 microtux | what's the prob ? |
| 10:38 oz__ | it may be |
| 10:38 oz__ | but I'd just do a netboot as dhcp will work then, too |
