Package: fai Version: 2.8.4 Severity: important Tags: patch When creating a debian mirror for fai-cd with fai-mirror, and at the same time using the simple examples from FAI's doc directory, as proposed in the FAI documentation, fai-mirror doesn't download a grub package correctly, and therefore there's no grub available at install time, and the installed system cannot boot.
This can be worked around by removing the lines PACKAGES aptitude LILO lilo grub- >From the simple examples package_config file for the DEFAULT class. As the >class LILO is not used in the example installations, that should not have an impact on the usability of FAI and the simpleexamples. But the "real" problem is probably that fai-mirror can't handle the "grub-" part of the above mentioned lines which should be deleted correctly - even if the class LILO doesnt need and want grub installed, that doesn't mean that it should not be included in a FAI mirror, because that can be used to install systems that don't have the LILO class, also. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.8-2-686 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages fai depends on: ii libapt-pkg-perl 0.1.13 Perl interface to libapt-pkg ii perl 5.8.4-8 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
