| 10:38 Delgul | 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 Delgul | 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 Delgul | Can you give me the correct sources.list line for it? I have tried so many I am completely lost |
| 10:44 Delgul | 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 Delgul | 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 Delgul | 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 Delgul | And then a make-fai-nfsroot of course |
| 10:57 \sh | Delgul: yes |
| 10:58 Delgul | 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 Delgul | ok thanks |
| oz__ (~oz@anubis.coresystems.de) left irc: Ping timeout: 480 seconds |
| 11:15 Mrfai | Delgul: Did you already filled out the FAI questionnaire? I'm always interested in user experiences. |
| 11:17 \sh | Delgul: ok...package is uploaded to the ppa now it needs to be processed...I'll give you status updates |

| 11:34 Delgul | 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 ;-) |

| oz_ (~oz@anubis.coresystems.de) 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 Delgul | thanks |
| 12:00 Delgul | 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? |
| 12:34 Delgul | I have: |
| 12:35 Delgul | deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/fai/ubuntu maverick main restricted universe multiverse |

| 12:36 \sh | sorry..from "maverick" to "lucid". |
| 12:36 \sh | when your FAI server is running lucid, use the lucid packages...not the maverick packages |
| 12:36 Delgul | 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 Delgul | yeah but now I have changed it and get back: |

| 12:38 \sh | apt-get update? |
| 12:39 \sh | Delgul: oh sorry...they are not even build...just saw the buildserver stats |
| 12:39 \sh | takes some time I think... |
| 13:05 Delgul | But they are in thr pipeline? |
| 13:28 \sh | yes |

| 16:01 Delgul | Ending with : INIT: no more processes left in this runlevel |
| 16:01 Delgul | And then it just sits there :-( |
| 16:04 \sh | Delgul: well, I don't have this message... |
| 16:05 \sh | Delgul: did you regenerate your NFSROOT for it? with a lucid debootstrap? |
| 16:05 Delgul | Yes, but apparently not correct |
| 16:06 Delgul | I can work on this tomorrow. 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 |
