[10:38] Hi, I have been using FAI for my Ubuntu installs for years, but I am really really disappointed with FAI on Ubuntu 10.04 atm. I am looking at the wrong channels or does it just not work with 10.04? There are no working packages afaik. Can anyone help me on track plz? [10:42] Anyone? will there be support for Ubuntu at all? Doesn't look that way. If so, plz tell so I can look for a different way of deploying (reluctantly I must admit)... [10:42] <\sh> Delgul: you need the packages from maverick [10:43] <\sh> Delgul: I'll push fai 3.4.2 for ubuntu lucid to the FAI ppa on launchpad in a couple of hours [10:43] <\sh> Delgul: fai 3.4.2 is working like a charm on lucid... [10:44] Can you give me the correct sources.list line for it? I have tried so many I am completely lost [10:44] Currently I am using the debian packages, but keep running into trouble :-( [10:45] <\sh> https://launchpad.net/~fai/+archive/ppa everything you need is on this page [10:45] <\sh> as said, I'll push FAI 3.4.2 packages for Ubuntu to this PPA in a couple of hours [10:47] Actually I would like to install the LTS release. Probably should work with the correct lines in apt? [10:48] <\sh> Delgul: I'm installing lucid here right now :) [10:48] <\sh> Delgul: you need to adjust /etc/fai/apt/sources.list to point for fai packages at this PPA [10:51] Ok, just so I get this straight: deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/fai/ubuntu maverick main restricted universe multiverse goes into "/etc/apt/sources.list". This qith an an "apt-get install fai-server fai-quickstart" would install the correct FAI packages on the fai server. Then I edit "/etc/fai/apt/sources.list" and put in the deb line for ubuntu LTS? [10:53] And then a make-fai-nfsroot of course [10:57] <\sh> Delgul: yes [10:58] Ok, just how many is "several" hours? ;-) [10:59] <\sh> Delgul: if your FAI server is lucid, you should s/maverick/lucid/ [10:59] <\sh> Delgul: 3-4 hours [10:59] ok thanks [11:10] oz__ (~oz@anubis.coresystems.de) left irc: Ping timeout: 480 seconds [11:15] Delgul: Did you already filled out the FAI questionnaire?

[11:34] Mrfai: Would be happy to fill it out for you. I bookmarked it for now. Am a bit busy now getting it to work again. But the installed base is around 40 servers and 55 desktops here so I will see if I can get you some nice photos too ;-) [11:42] verwilst (~verwilst@router.begen1.office.netnoc.eu) joined #fai.

[11:49] <\sh> Mrfai: I would like to see a link to the https://launchpad.net/~fai/+archive/ppa page , because after maverick we will provide PPAs for other releases and as well for development releases before they reach the real archives [11:50] <\sh> Delgul: fai3.4.2 for lucid in the PPA is build...follow the instructions on the ppa page for adding the archive [11:59] thanks [12:00] atm apt-cache policy still shows me 3.4.0 as candidate. Guess I will have to wait a bit more... [12:30] <\sh> Delgul: which deb line do you have in your sources.list?

[12:36] <\sh> when your FAI server is running lucid, use the lucid packages...not the maverick packages [12:36] ah ok... [12:37] <\sh> you have to do it on your FAI server, and inside the NFSroot via /etc/fai/apt/sources.list [12:37] yeah but now I have changed it and get back: [12:37] apt-cache policy fai-server [12:37] fai-server: [12:37] Installed: (none) [12:37] Candidate: 3.3.5ubuntu3 [12:37] Version table: [12:37] 3.3.5ubuntu3 0 [12:37] 500 http://ppa.launchpad.net/fai/ubuntu/ lucid/main Packages [12:37] which is older even [12:38] <\sh> apt-get update?

Will you be in here so i can ask you some questions? [16:07] <\sh> Delgul: you need to add the ppa deb line as well to /etc/fai/apt/sources.list to fetch the fai-nfsroot package [16:07] <\sh> fai-client package I mean [16:07] <\sh> and yes, I'm online tomorrow [16:08] ah perhaps the ppa line will help... just a sec...
