These two bugs are different: The client only uses one partition, my problem appears (I think...) only inside FAI, as FAI (when using softupdates) seems to expect that the directory /var/run/fai (which is created by the package fai-client) persists during reboots - which of course is not the case then /var/run is mountet as tmpfs > If not, it would be nice if you could file an additional bug > report. This is the best method so I will not forget to fix your bug. It is #515775. Axel
