Hi,
I've been playing around with setting up raid using FAI (v. 2.8.4)
with the setup_harddisks 2 script from:
http://faiwiki.informatik.uni-koeln.de/index.php/Setup_harddisks_2
in which I think I've found a bug where sfdisk bails out
immediately upon not being able to query a non-existant dr

Hi folks,
I've inherited a legacy FAI configuration. Currently it's running FAI
2.8.4. We're thinking of upgrading to 2.10.x at some point, but
before that we need to completely understand everything that FAI is
currently doing for us.
Our entire configuration is currently under revision contr
Hi all,
I'm sure this is a faq, but I couldn't seem to find the answer on the
wiki or the main FAI website.
I'm using FAI 2.8.4 and I need to update the kernel which gets booted
from within the nfsroot. I have this kernel as a .deb in my mirror,
so I thought it would be as simple as just doing

Perhaps what I'm missing is that this kernel, according to the README
in the fai-kernels package, must have it's NIC drivers statically
compiled into the kernel. Unfortunately, the whole reaso

Hi all,
I'm currently using FAI 2.8.4 from 25 May 2005 ( I know it's old, but
our installtion is too customized to easily upgrade).
I'm trying to install to a RAID1 set using FAI. Everything goes
extremely well until the reboot, where GRUB seems to not be able to
boot the system correctly. Whe
What's the current status of using SW RAID in FAI? Has it been added
to FAI proper, or are the directions at:
http://faiwiki.informatik.uni-koeln.de/index.php/User:Svamberg/Software_RAID
still the way to go?
Thanks.
