Hi, I'm struggeling figuring out how to make FAI work with ubuntu 16.04. My base system is an ubuntu 16.04 as well and I'm using 5.0.3ubuntu1.
Can anyone share his NFSROOT-file and nfsroot-hooks ? There are two problems I face right now: 1.) systemd 2.) dracut and initramfs Problem with 1.) is that systemd is not supported by fai but installed. I tried to fix that with a hook but I'm not sure if this results in a working nfsroot: root@fai:/etc/fai# cat nfsroot-hooks/10-upstart #!/bin/sh $ROOTCMD apt-get install upstart $ROOTCMD apt-get install upstart-sysv $ROOTCMD rm -f /sbin/init $ROOTCMD ln -s $NFSROOT/sbin/upstart /sbin/init # If rcS.conf is not removed, FAI will be started twice. $ROOTCMD rm /etc/init/rcS.conf Problem with 2.) ist that fai-make-nfsroot has an hardcoded dependency for dracut in the check_nfsroot() function. But dracut conflicts with initramfs-tools which are needed by other packages.. At the moment I have no solution for this.
