This can also happen if it tires to do a NFS v4 mount. So, first check if you see a mount request on the FAI install server. If yes, you may have this NFSv4 problem. See these hints https://lists.uni-koeln.de/pipermail/linux-fai/2013-January/009899.html http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=676883#10 -- P.S.: I'm always very interested in user experiences with FAI. Can you please fill out the FAI questionnaire http://fai-project.org/questionnaire and send it back to me when you finished a project with fai. regards Thomas
