> fai-kernels is installed, the correct KERNELPACKAGE ist set > in /etc/fai/make-fai-nfsroot.conf KERNELPACKAGE is IMHO only used for generating the NFS root (and as such it is defined in /etc/fai/make-fai-nfsroot.conf). But you have to install a kernel package on the machine which is due to be installed, and that has failed (see your above cited error messages). This may be because there is no Debian package named kernel-image-2.4.27-1-386 (see <http://packages.debian.org>). Try using kernel-image-2.4.27-2-386 or the more generic kernel-image-2.4-386, then the installation should run through. You can define this in /usr/local/share/fai/class/DEFAULT.var, if you use the simple example files.
