| 11:10 tempel | huch, Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary. |
| 11:11 tempel | /dev/sda1 * 1 978 7852335 83 Linux |
| 11:11 tempel | /dev/sda2 978 3893 23414281+ f W95 Ext'd (LBA) |
| 11:11 tempel | sda2 starts when sda1 should end |
| 11:11 tempel | setup-storage version 1.2.1+exp |
| 11:12 tempel | setup-storage does not report any errors, but fdisk -l does |
| 11:14 tempel | /dev/sda5 978 3893 23414250 83 Linux ...also starts at 978 |
| 11:14 mgoetze | tempel: if you are having problems with experimental version of setup-storage it would probably be best to write to the linux-fai mailing list, since the developer of setup-storage is rarely on irc |
| 11:14 tempel | k, thanks |

| 11:58 tempel | why is there a ramdisk on /var/lib/dpkg ? is it only used to speed up the install? |
| TeTeT (~spindler@89.204.139.161) joined #fai. |
| 12:00 mgoetze | tempel: yes |
| 12:00 mgoetze | the contents of the ramdisk are copied to the hard drive at the end of the installation |
| 12:39 oz__ | mgoetze: why is the ramdisk in /var/lib/dpkg? |
| 12:49 mgoetze | oz__: thomas tested it and noticed a significant speedup |
| 12:50 oz__ | mgoetze: why this location? |
| 12:50 oz__ | i understand the speedup. |
| 12:51 mgoetze | i believe the plan for a future version is to make it fully customizable, i.e. you can specify a list of directories in your configuration |
| 12:51 mgoetze | currently, you can disable the ramdisk feature with a variable |
| 12:53 oz__ | okay, so the location was chose at random |
| 12:53 oz__ | hard to find, I would not expect something FAI specific in /var/lib/dpkg |
| 12:54 tempel | m2, we are moving /opt and /var to another partition at the end of the install, always failed with the ramdisk mounted |
| 12:54 mgoetze | there's nothing fai specific, it's just a place where lots gets written during installation |
| 12:55 mgoetze | tempel: you can disable it with FAI_NORAMDISK=1 in class/SOMECLASS.var |
| 12:55 tempel | have it in DEFAULT class, still mounts it ...(will look at it now) |
| 12:57 tempel | hm, fai-3.3.5ubuntu3 |
| 12:57 tempel | cat /tmp/fai/variables.log | grep RAM |
| 12:57 tempel | FAI_NORAMDISK=1 |
| 12:58 tempel | anyway: tmpfs on /target/var/lib/dpkg type tmpfs (rw,relatime) |
| 12:58 mgoetze | that's strange |
| 13:08 tempel | in 3.3.5 subroutines, extrabase uses: mkramdisk $target/var/lib/dpkg, in 3.4 it uses mkramdisk -a |
| 13:13 tempel | works for me: [ $FAI_NORAMDISK -eq 0 ] && mkramdisk $target/var/lib/dpkg |
