severity: wishlist

Hi,

Setting up fai-server (3.1.1) ...
Now edit fai.conf, make-fai-nfsroot.conf and sources.list in /etc/fai and call 
fai-setup.
Especially, you'll have to replace the placeholder INSTALLSERVER 
in /etc/fai/fai.conf.



Please reword this: I just reinstalled fai from scratch and didn't _had to_ 
edit fai.conf (and there is no "INSTALLSERVER" in fai.conf anymore) and 
make-fai-nfsroot.conf, but I needed to _supply_ a working sources.list. 

So I suggest: 

"You might want to edit fai.conf and make-fai-nfsroot.conf in /etc/fai or go 
with the defaults. You need to supply a working sources.list in /etc/fai/"

And now I wonder why fai-server doesn't provide a /etc/fai/sources.list which 
just works? :)

And while we're at it, "Then call 'fai-setup -v" c/should be added to 
fai-quickstart's postinst.


regards,
        Holger

P.S.: also at the end of "fai-setup -v" I just got this, but maybe thats 
because /proc was not mounted in the chroot...
