Yes, that what I wanted to say. Sorry for the confusion.
Actually less of confusion, more of dumb [dumb can be fixed while stupid
is forever]. I approach this from the expectation that if I faithfully
follow my predecessors I will have a good outcome. I have not. But I
question how faithful I have been. And I can not exactly duplicate the
Debioan environment my predesessors trod. So I'm stuck for the moment
with Ubuntu that does abort for reasons I don't fully understand.
This brings me to viewing the Ubuntu version as lacking quality and the
FAI project team of not supporting Ubuntu variation of the project. I
do have opinion, I do not criticize. Once I grasp the Ubuntu failure,
and maybe have a solution, I will approach Ubuntu as a buggy offering
not found in Debian.
I would be very happy if anyone would maintain the Ubuntu FAI
packages, but I do not have the time to do this.
I hope you share my perspective of the difference between support and
quality. I doubt FAI is flawed and in need of support, I do suspect
some incompatibility caused by differences in packaging between Debian
and Ubuntu.
Cheers.
