HI,
this is not an specific FAI problem but if I may expose it here (I
guess some of you use debian + cfengine2).
After a succesful FAI install, the system reboots and it runs
/usr/bin/cfagent -qv as the last line of /etc/init.d/bootmisc.sh;

hi,
I am testing the upgrade of a lenny fai server to serve squeeze

hi,
maybe this is addressed in a later version (I am still on the lenny
fai version, the upgrade is planned).
The standard fai log permissions are too generous: 644 for all the log
files in /var/log/fai/localhost/install-date. If you use debconf to
set passwords, then those passwords are readable

hi,
This is my first post to this list but I have been using FAI for quite
a while, I am a happy user :-)
Anyway, I need to install some servers with mysql-server, and would
like to set the root mysql password from FAI.
I have installed it manually in a test server and grepped the
