AMD64 Help
I'm not sure if my original post went through. I am trying to use FAI to install AMD64 on an Opteron cluster. I have run into a snag when installing packages. I can not seem to figure out what I am doing wrong. I mirror the pure64 and export it to the clients. The mirror shows up fine, but it says that it can not find some files to do the apt-get install for the clients. I have tried copying the nfsroot, exporting that and then mount that on the install client, run apt-get update and it's still no good. I don't know what in fai-make-nfsroot that does the magic that allows apt-get to work without problems. One issue that I am working with is that the install node is not running pure64 and the nodes don't have Internet access. Any help would be appreciated. My mirror is mounted on the install clients at /tmp/target/mnt2 and the path to pure64 would be /tmp/target/mnt2/pure64 (it is a subdirectory in my Debian mirror). The general error that I am getting is: rcS.log:Couldn't stat source package list file: sarge/main Packages (/tmp/target/var/lib/apt/lists/_tmp_target_mnt2_pure64_dists_sarge_main_binary-amd64_Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory) rcS.log:Couldn't stat source package list file: sarge/contrib Packages (/tmp/target/var/lib/apt/lists/_tmp_target_mnt2_pure64_dists_sarge_contrib_binary-amd64_Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory) rcS.log:Couldn't stat source package list file: sarge/non-free Packages (/tmp/target/var/lib/apt/lists/_tmp_target_mnt2_pure64_dists_sarge_non-free_binary-amd64_Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory) rcS.log:Couldn't stat source package list file: sarge/main Packages (/tmp/target/var/lib/apt/lists/_tmp_target_mnt2_pure64_dists_sarge_main_binary-amd64_Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory) rcS.log:Couldn't stat source package list file: sarge/contrib Packages (/tmp/target/var/lib/apt/lists/_tmp_target_mnt2_pure64_dists_sarge_contrib_binary-amd64_Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory) ---lot more errors--- and I am attaching my rcS.log as refrence.

amd64 help needed
Well, I decided to give a 64-bit environment a chance on our Opteron cluster. So far things have gone ok. I ran into a couple of problems and got through them, but this one has me stumped. I have the nfsroot all set-up and configured. The node boots the 64-bit install kernel mounts everything ok, partitions the disk and then goes to install the software and I get this: Couldn't stat source package list file: sarge/main Packages (/tmp/target/var/lib/apt/lists/_tmp_target_mnt2_pure64_dists_sarge_main_bina ry-amd64_Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory) Couldn't stat source package list file: sarge/contrib Packages (/tmp/target/var/lib/apt/lists/_tmp_target_mnt2_pure64_dists_sarge_contrib_b inary-amd64_Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory) Couldn't stat source package list file: sarge/non-free Packages (/tmp/target/var/lib/apt/lists/_tmp_target_mnt2_pure64_dists_sarge_non-free_ binary-amd64_Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory) Couldn't stat source package list file: sarge/main Packages (/tmp/target/var/lib/apt/lists/_tmp_target_mnt2_pure64_dists_sarge_main_bina ry-amd64_Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory) Couldn't stat source package list file: sarge/contrib Packages (/tmp/target/var/lib/apt/lists/_tmp_target_mnt2_pure64_dists_sarge_contrib_b inary-amd64_Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory) Couldn't stat source package list file: sarge/non-free Packages (/tmp/target/var/lib/apt/lists/_tmp_target_mnt2_pure64_dists_sarge_non-free_ binary-amd64_Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory) You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems Now at the end of the fai install, I can go into a shell and run apt-get update and the only errors that I get is that the root is read-only. I have my mirror mounted at /tmp/target/mnt2/pure64 on the install clients. My first inclination is to just chroot to the install root and run apt-get update, but since the install server is i386 (still Opteron, but running 32-bit) I can not run the /bin/bash binary since it is 64-bit. Any ideas on how to resolve the problem? Thanks, -- Robert LeBlanc BioAg Computer Support Brigham Young University <>
