Hello,<br>
<br>
I am trying to setup FAI with Ubuntu 7.10.<br>
Following the documentation, I got an FAI server running (but buggy)
and a client booting from PXE.<br>
<br>
*) The first thing I don't understand is why the NFSROOT is located in
/srv/fai/nfsroot/<u>live/filesystem.dir</u> after doing "fai-setup"<br>
According to /etc/exports (automaticly generated) the server exports
/srv/fai/nfsroot (as a "ro" filesystem).<br>
<br>
So nfs-client install cannot mount the device saying:<br>
"mount failed 13<br>
"mount: device is busy<br>
And endless loop on this message.<br>
<br>
*) The second question is "Do I have to change PXE boot definition to
point on "/srv/fai/nfsroot/live/filesystem.dir" ?<br>
<br>
I've already tried to do so, and I get messages saying that filesystem
is "read only" (so it can't "touch" or write some files).<br>
Seems to be fine because this filesystem has to be mounted as a "live
system" during install process.<br>
<br>
So why do it try to write something in it ?<br>
<u><br>
</u>Thanks for help or suggestions :)<u><br>
