Bug#292280: integrating d-i components
IMO it's not that easy to integrate any of the d-i components. Some of them depend on some special d-i infrastructure (like special libraries that are only used in d-i or r/w access to some directories), that are not availabe during a FAI installation. Also, the whole d-i is running in a ramdisk (everything is writeable), FAI is using a (mostly) read only nfsroot. We like to use partman from d-i for FAI in the future but even that will be a lot of work, since it has some ugly (IMO not really needed) dependencies. Let's have a look at the dependencies of partman_63_i386.udeb Depends: libc6 (= 2.3.2.ds1-4), libparted1.6-12 (= 1.6.0), libparted1.6-udeb, partman-partitioning, partman-target, archdetect, harddrive-detection, di-utils-mapdevfs I hope you'll get the idea of the problems with d-i components. -- regards Thomas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Bug#336644: $SERVER is normally defined
by default the command sndmon uses the variable $monserver. This is the name of the machine to which the messages should be sent. If this variable is not defined (mostly, because it's not set by default, but you can define it yourself), it uses the value of $SERVER which is set by get-boot-info().

Bug#369265: boot.log
On Wed, 14 Jun 2006 12:14:40 +0200, Enrique de la Torre Gordaliza [EMAIL PROTECTED] said: Installation stops at RPC error and I dont have shell access. How can I read the /tmp/boot.log or dmesg from the client? Any boot parameter? This is an v20z Yes, I know those machines. I've tested the fai 2.10.2 (which was released some minutes ago) with three network devices, and I had no problems. But I also had problems with the v20z. IMO this is because the kernel semms to have another order of the network devices, than when doing PXE boot. So PXE boot boots from eth0 (for e.g. maybe the upper NIC), but then the kernel thinks the lower NIC is eth0. So the upper will become eth1 and no network connection is available any more. IMO there was another thread on this problem on the FAI mailing list. Currently I have no real solution for this. -- regards Thomas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Bug#373587: fai-nfsroot: RPC call returned error 101 on v20z
To see which network card is used by the second dhcp call, please edit the lib/get-boot-info script in your nfsroot. Locate the line: dhclient -lf /dev/null -cf /etc/dhcp3/dhclient-fai.conf -sf /etc/dhcp3/dhclient-fai-script $netdevices $bootlog 2 $LOGDIR/dhclient.log and remove the redirection of stdout and stderr, so you will see those messages on the terminal.

Maybe this helps: http://www.science.uva.nl/research/air/wiki/LogicalInterfaceNames Try ether=0,0,eth0 (or netdev= which is the same) as kernel parameter (you can give it with fai-chboot). You have to force the kernel not to activate the oTher NIC, which is not defined in dhcpd.conf. The command nameif can't be used, because the interface is already up, and we can't shut if down because of our nfsroot from remote. -- regards Thomas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

IMO you can enter the network card BIOS, and disable the PXE booting. Currently I do not know how to enter it (ecom uses atl-ctrl-b, intel uses ctrl-s). THere you should may select boot from local disk first. Maybe this disables the MBA (or PXE) bootig from this NIC. So it should be possible to activate only one of your NIC's for PXE booting. There's a MS DOS programm called b57udiag which can enable MBA for broadcom cards: http://manuals.fujitsu-siemens.com/serverbooks/content/manuals/html/broadcom/dosdiag.htm Hope this helps. -- regards Thomas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Bug#356136: keep it simple
On Mon, 20 Mar 2006 09:48:57 +0100, Björn Torkelsson [EMAIL PROTECTED] said: Left to do is to extend fai-chboot to create the template files (should they end in .tmpl? Right now we don't use and file extension), but that shouldn't be that hard. Currently we are creating the template by either using fai-chboot to copy from a host config to the template and/or writing it by hand. I think this is also a good idea to just copy a hand made template. What about a new flag -c name that copies an existing pxeconfig to a new file. Example fai-chboot -c cluster host01 host02 This would copy the pxelinux.cfg file /boot/fai/pxelinux.cfg/cluster to the config files for host01 and host02 (file names in hex). If /boot/fai/pxelinux.cfg/cluster does not exist but the host name cluster can be resolved to an IP address, then copy the file with the IP address of cluster in hex to host01 and host02 config files. -- regards Thomas

Bug#605947: forwarded message from Michael Tautschnig
Package: fai-server Version: 3.4.5 Severity: important Calling fai-mirror is broken. This is because of the fix for #600715. Attached is a detailed description. ---BeginMessage--- (explicitly CC'ed Thomas to alert him.) Hi all, after update to 3.4.5 I get an error when running fai-mirror (system is a current debian lenny). The following command was entered (/fai/etc-config files are stored in a different location, but this should IMHO not cause the problem). [...] Indeed, IMHO this problem will occur in all cases. It's caused by the recent bugfix of #600715. With this bugfix install_packages does: print $0: reading config files from directory $classpath\n; Before it was a warn instead of the print, sending the result to stderr. This nicely fixed #600715, but it interferes with make-fai-nfsroot, which uses the output of install_packages: install_packages -l -p$cfdir $NFSROOT/var/tmp/packages.nfsroot AFAIK this is the only use of this kind, hence it would be ok to keep the bugfix of #600715, but we need a fix of make-fai-nfsroot (which would be a grep -v). Thomas, here's where your input is needed: Would something like install_packages -l -p$cfdir | grep -v install_packages: reading config files from $NFSROOT/var/tmp/packages.nfsroot be fine with you? I guess we'll need a 3.4.6, however, as fai-mirror is probably broken in all cases with the current situation. Yet I am not quite happy with the above grep-solution as a change of install_packages' output will again break things.

To be more spcific. perl-tk is not needed for building the fai package. It's only needed it you like to check the faimond-gui perl script for syntax errors. I'm not sure if we really should add a build-depends on perl-tk. BTW, adding liblinux-lvm-perl to build-depends may cause lvm2 to be installed on the building host, when someone manually installs liblinux-lvm-perl but does not disable installing of recommended packages. Then installing lvm2 also creates a new initrd on the build host. Ouch.

On Wed, 19 Jan 2011 10:57:50 +, Michael Tautschnig m...@debian.org said: If we prefer not to have that build dependency but still keep the syntax checks we could also add dummy files (which is what I did on alioth to make the experimental versions build). What if we remove the build dependency, leave perlcheck in the Makefile, but do not call it on every package build? That way, one could manually call the perlchecks when he knows the needed packages are installed, but not everybody needs to install the additional packages when building the package. -- regards Thomas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Bug#506971: fai: locales should be installed and configured early
Package: fai Version: 3.2.14 Severity: wishlist A package P may not depend on the package locales, but will only configure itself for locales already available in the system. This may cause problems, when the package locales is installed after the package P. Then this package may fall back to the C or the POSIX locale and does not set up for the locale you defined. I think the debian installer also installs and sets up locales at the very beginning. Maybe this package should be handled especially. From a email discussion: Well, the packages might not always handle the order. Using the locale example again, a package might not 'require' locales to be configured, if it can use 'POSIX' or 'C' - how is the package to know that you don't want those? -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-1-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Bug#504018: add new variable for APT keys
Package: fai Version: 3.2.14 Severity: wishlist I like to have support for a file, which includes the already downloaded APT keys (proposal: APT_KEY_FILE) This list of gpg keys will be added to the APT key management via the command apt-key. So, all packages signed with those keys are considered trused. It should be definfed in class/*.var. I think it will be used in task_prepareapt. I may also be defined in fai.conf, then it will also be used when building the nfsroot. Maybe a variables like APT_KEY_LIST should also be supported. This is only a list of keys (theris ID's), that will be downloaded from a keyserver, not the keys itself. It may be a problem, that this feature needs access to an external keyserver, which may be not the case for all. Currently install clients only need access to the install server and a debian repository, which all may be on local network. -- regards Thomas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Bug#390504: possible solution
Back to the first post. It's wrong to use an unmodified fai.conf and try fai softupdate. FAI_CONFIGDIR is only used on the install server. It's not used by an install client. Maybe the comment is a little bit confusing. So this variable should be moved to make-fai-nfsroot.conf to make things clearer. If you install a client using FAI, a new definition for FAI_CONFIG_SRC will be appended to /etc/fai/fai.conf during the installation (e.g. FAI_CONFIG_SRC=nfs://kueppers/srv/fai/cslenny). So the install client can do softupdate (from the same config space as during first installation), because it knows were to fetch the config space. If you like to use another source as config space, you have to edit FAI_CONFIG_SRC in /etc/fai/fai.conf on the install client. IMO the problem occured because of a bad usage of FAI_CONFIGDIR. -- regards Thomas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Bug#575921: install_packages may write to world writable directory
Package: fai-client Severity: critical Tags: security Tags: pending When using fai softupdate, install_packages writes a list of all packages to the file /var/tmp/package, which is located in a world writeable directory. It also writes to /tmp/packages.list if FAI_DEBSOURCESDIR is set. These problems only affect FAI versions from 3.3 to 3.3.4. In case you use PACKAGES dselect-upgrade (I guess it's not used very often) in package_config it writes to $FAI_ROOT/tmp/dpkg-selections.tmp.

No, AFAIK syslinux is not supported. The syslinux package is only needed for pxelinux. -- regards Thomas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org

My idea: the fai script should set it to 700 if it's not already defined in fai.conf. -- regards Thomas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
Bug#521027: (no subject)
One part of the patch in experimental (which replaces ifconfig with ip calls) removes the variable $mask, so that now the NFSROOT is only exported to the IP address of the server. I'm pretty sure this will break things. Or did I overlooked something? -- regards Thomas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

IMO the variable debug should only be set to 0 or 1 or may be undefined. A test, if this variable is non-numeric is not needed. -- regards Thomas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org

Maybe I can limit the execution of more than one dirinstall to the same directory, or I will just remove the check when doing a dirinstall and only test if fai is doing softupdates. -- regards Thomas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Bug#604938: host does not boot with grub_pc and /dev/sdd as boot disk
Package: fai-doc Version: 3.4.4 In the simple examples the script GRUB_PC/10-setup always install grub into hd0. If your boot disk is not hd0, the host does not boot. I have following configuration: four SATA disks, three times 1TB, one 80GB disk. This 80GB should be my boot disk. The three disks will be part of a RAID0. During installation the disks will be named: 80 976762584 sda 8 16 976762584 sdb 8 32 976762584 sdc 8 48 78150744 sdd setup-storage creates all partitions softraid and file systems very well. (Great work Michael!). This is my disk_var.sh SWAPLIST=/dev/sdd5 BOOT_DEVICE=/dev/sdd ROOT_PARTITION=UUID=55e150ff-0e7f-427b-ab82-0354e7515d8a BOOT_PARTITION=/dev/sdd1 Later GRUB_PC/10-setup is called without any errors = shell: GRUB_PC/10-setup = Generating grub.cfg ... cat: /boot/grub/video.lst: No such file or directory Found linux image: /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-5-686 Found initrd image: /boot/initrd.img-2.6.32-5-686 Found memtest86+ image: /boot/memtest86+.bin Found memtest86+ multiboot image: /boot/memtest86+_multiboot.bin done Installation finished. No error reported. GRUB_PC/10-setup OK. But the host does not boot. No grub prompt, just nothing. First, I thought is a buggy BIOS. But it's a bug in FAI IMO. Let's have a look: cat /boot/grub/device.map (hd0) /dev/disk/by-id/ata-ST31000524NS_9WK1MYSS (hd1) /dev/disk/by-id/ata-ST31000524NS_9WK1MYEJ (hd2) /dev/disk/by-id/ata-ST31000524NS_9WK1MYRA (hd3) /dev/disk/by-id/ata-SAMSUNG_HD080HJ_S08EJ1GYC01865 My boot disk is not hd0, but hd3 (that means sdd as in disk_var.sh). But 10-setup just installs grub into hd0. cat GRUB_PC/10-setup: #! /bin/bash # support for GRUB version 2 (1.98-1) error=0 ; trap error=$((error|1)) ERR $ROOTCMD grub-mkdevicemap -n -m /boot/grub/device.map $ROOTCMD grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg $ROOTCMD grub-install --no-floppy (hd0) exit $error After manually calling $ROOTCMD grub-install --no-floppy (hd3) everything works just fine.

Package: fai-doc Severity: important I think this bug is at least important. Maybe it can causes data loss, if grub installs itself into hd0, no matter if this disk is used in a RAID. -- regards Thomas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Bug#603675: device2grub not needed for grub2
The script device2grub is not needed for grub2. In FAI we have the class GRUB_PC which uses the script GRUB_PC/10-setup for setting up grub2 configuration. Also have a look at #604938 which fixes a problem in this script. FAI will use grub-probe (instead of device2grub) for grub2. IMO we can close this bug. -- regards Thomas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
Bug#604938: Acknowledgement (host does not boot with grub_pc and /dev/sdd as boot disk)
- $BOOT_DEVICE may consist of several device names if RAID is used. Hence we need to loop over each of them and do what you just proposed. That's a good reason to use your patch. -- regards Thomas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?
