Re: Can't open /scripts/live on debian etch

 hi,

 what is the best way to pass this error ? I am using debian etch 64bit  
 on the FAI server as well as in the install client. Do i need to build  
 my initrd in a special way ? I cannot find a clear answer to that, i  
 have googled a little but have not seen anything clear on how to solve 
 it.


 my guess:

 aptitude install live-initramfs
 mkinitramfs -o /boot/initrd.img-2.6.26.3-vs2.3.0.35.5  2.6.26.3-vs2.3.35.5.5

 is it the good way ?


I prefer to use update-initramfs -u -k all, don't know whether this makes a
difference or not. But in any case: Did you make sure that this kernel/initrd is
used for booting the client?

Best,
Michael

You have to use the kernel and initrd that is generated by
make-fai-nfsroot. Only this initrd will include the live scripts, that
are needed for booting up the machine. It should be possible to add
the xen kernel into the nfsroot and then xen kernels including the
live scripts in their initrd should be generated.

Actually, installing the live-initramfs package onto the Xen host should suffice
as well. That's what I do, at least.
