I continue with some tests from my recently created fai, live-initramfs and initramfs-tools packages. These packages make possible Ubuntu 8.10 to serve Ubuntu 8.10 for the install clients.
I will upload these packages soon and probably send the .diff files here at the list for you to check them. Before doing this I have some doubts: Here there are the errors from both: fai-setup.log (After running fai-setup -v) and error.log (inside the recently installed machine as an ubuntu 8.10 client). Should I bother because any of them? One thing I do not understand is why it complains about /var/cache/fonts while I have added the defoma package to the make-fai-nfsroot.conf file. Thank you.
