Using FAI 4.1~beta4 and dracut 034-2 I have some success. When debugging the initrd by adding rd.break=pre-pivot, I get into the initrd shell and see the the nfsroot was mounted to /sysroot via nfs v4. Also all files in /sysroot belong to user and group root. That means, that mounting via nfs v4 works, if it is properly set up on the install server. You may want to add rd.nfs.domain=localdomain to the kernel command line.
After that I can say "exit", which brings me to the switch_root part. /sysroot is now mounted via aufs. But if I like to access any file in /sysroot (for e.g. passwd via cat) I always get this kind of error: switch_root:/# cat /sysroot/etc/passwd cat: /sysroot/etc/passwd: Not a directory I seems that aufs can't handle nfs v4 mounts properly. -- regards Thomas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
