Fai-Kernel 2.6 and xfs
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi, in our company we are now testing fai as an alternative for the redhat kickstart system. Because of newest hardware I was testing the actual fai be in sarge with the kernel 2.6.7. I was wondering about the fact that the ext2/3 filesystems have been build as modules and loaded dynamically, but xfs also as module failed to load. I prefer a disk_config mostly with xfs filesystems. What did I make wrong?

Since a lot of network kernel drivers has to be included into the install kernel and we have to keep the kernel small, a lot of other drivers are build as modules. But they should work. Maybe you can give more information on your problems. -- regards Thomas

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi, | Maybe you can give more information on your problems. I made the following disk_layout disk_config hda primary /boot 100 rw ;-j ext3 primary / 1024rw ;xfs logical swap 1024rw logical /usr 1024rw ;xfs logical /home 1024rw,nosuid;xfs logical /var 2048rw ;xfs logical /tmp 1024rw ;xfs As the ext2/3 fs modules loaded automatically, I thought it would also happens with xfs. But during installation-mode/setup_harddisks the kernels stops with the exception that the xfs-filesystem is not supported by the kernel. Is there a place in a script where the filesystem modules are preloaded?

Do you have xfsprogs added to your nfsroot?
Cheers,
Steffen - still stuck with 2.4.27, but with an Alpha running FAI :-)

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi, | Do you have xfsprogs added to your nfsroot? Yes, I have added xfsprogs and I know that the xfs.ko exists but the kernel doesn't seem to recognize it. however i will rebuild the kernel now with hard integrated xfs support. thanks, sven - -- + + Danet GmbH+ + + + Sven Wilhelm phone: +49.6151.868-822 + + Gutenbergstasse 10 fax:+49.6151.868-666 + + 64331 Weiterstadt + +mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] + + Germanyurl:http://www.danet-is.de + + + + GnuPG-KeyID: 4DA67A0A + + GnuPG-Fingerprint: 95BE434098D8C4D78817D9A7AA011E7D4DA67A0A + + -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFBQENQqgEefU2megoRAma2AJ9UwFfjsJriZHSi3rQCqE37oA1UZQCfU5EI LAW1klVjemYhdQJOQYf0giI= =1rlw -END PGP SIGNATURE-

Sven Wilhelm [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: What did I make wrong? I had the same problem with the XFS module and the FAI kernel. The package xfsprogs was installed in the nfsroot but the kernel crashed when I modprobe xfs. I had to recompile a kernel with XFS included. -- Cyril Bouthors pgpjJxYNYqOLC.pgp Description: PGP signature
Non interactive installation
I'm not able to install libapache-mod-gzip non interactively because it asks a confirmation before restarting Apache. It's the only package that does this. Do you know how to fix this? I'm also having the same kind of problems with scripts/DEFAULT/S01 but I can't fix them because the script does not output anything, even with FAI_FLAGS set to verbose or debug. Do you know a way to get output from it? Thanks -- Cyril Bouthors pgpxPt420cAPu.pgp Description: PGP signature
