hi i (successfully) did a FAI install for ubuntu 12.04 precise.
but there is a caveat: as the generic kernel that comes with this ubuntu release does not support aufs anymore, i had to use the grml kernel (3.1.0-grml64). this kernel did not assign my disks to root:disk (as FAI expects in order to find the disks for partitioning) but to root:root. this way setup-storage fails and FAI ends up in the BusyBox. i did submit the problem on launchpad: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fai/+bug/941959 the workaround was to manually chown the disks to root:disk in a FAI script. not sure if this is a grml problem or one that should be fixed in FAI. best regards Hiro Protagonist
