Hello everyone,
I tried now several hours to create an unattended centos installation with
fai.
I've got already a working fai with debian wheezy & jessie and now I wanted
to integrate also CentOS.
I downloaded the basefile (CENTOS7_x86_64) and put them in $FAI/basefiles
folder. The class
You don't need to edit the source code. You can create a hook for this task
and at the end skip the task so that the normal subroutine won't execute
anymore.

Hello,
I've got a little problem with the CentOS PXE Installation.
My DHCP/PXE-Server is configured and I'm able to select the
centos-installation in the pxe menu. FAI also extract the base-tgz and
update the system. But after rebooting the CentOS-Systeme, there are wrong
permissions for "/", whic
then everything works like a charm.
Thank you Thomas!
Greetings,
Denny (d3nny)

Hello everyone,
I'm using FAI 5.0 and need a special partition layout for our centos kvm
installation.
The partition schema need to be like this:
GPT /dev/sda1 2048 6143 2M BIOS boot partition /dev/sda2 6144 16783359 8G
Linux swap /dev/sda3 16783360 17831935 512M Microsoft basic data /boot
/dev/

Seems like you're on the wrong server.
Try using irc.oftc.net.

Hello everyone,
I’ve got a little problem with my fai installations.
Everytime I install a client via pxe, the name of the vm contains our dns
domain. I know that Thomas had a fix for this but I can’t find it anywhere.
Can anyone give me a link or a hint for the fix?
For example:
DNS-Domain: dom

Hello everyone,
I’ve got a little problem with virtio vms.
When I create a new vm with a virtio network card, then the system will get an
IP for PXE-Boot, the menu appears and after loading the initrd and vmlinuz, the
system hang at:
„Starting dhcp for interface eth0
dhcp: PREINIT eth0 up
dhcp:

Yes, it should support v

Yes and no. It's only not working when booting with virtio network card when
dracut is running.
The first DHCP request for pxe-boot-menu is received successfully. After that
the initrd and stuff is loaded.
When dracut is running a dhcp again, then the dhcp fails -
Screenshot attached:

Don't know why the interface can't get started.

Default timeout are 20 seconds, this is way enough. DHCPOFFERS will be send out
but VM don't respect them.
This problem only occur with Dracut and virtio network card.
With FAI 3 everything worked fine.
Hello everyone,
I could fix the problem. And here's the solution if you also got the problem:
VirtIO driver is included in the initrd, but when the VM boot into dracut the
"dhclient" command fails. This happens, because of bad checksums with special
software.
Currently we use qemu/kvm on out vi
I don't have any problems with installation centos7.
But I also don't use LVM. Just the same disk_partition as for debian.
Are you sure that your script in /- got chmod +x ? Without
execution flag the script will not get executed.

Hello everyone,
we did manage to install debian, sles (via autoyast) and centos (base-file)
via fai.
But now we need also install RedHat.
Did anyone manage to install RedHat via fai? If yes, how? Is there a
basefile which could be shared?
Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Denny
