<tt>Hi All,<br>
<br>
A small update and another question... Since I couldn't figure out why
this was not working, I started from scratch.<br>
I've found that a "clean" roll-put with lenny wont work, im getting
kernel panics errors again. But is probably due to missing modules for
our bnx2 networkcards.<br>
<br>
Putting the old config files bak and using our own "old" kernel to get
around this still wont work, the boot proccess keeps asking for a
proper "init=", which is strange since we never used an init image in
the "old" setup. Does newer versions of expect a init image?<br>
<br>
The problem is that I can never get out off the initrd on to the actual
fai installation this way..<br>
<br>
Im really lost at this point, since I cant seem to get the old setup
working, nor a new one!<br>
Any help would be greatly appreciated... If more info is needed all be
glad to post that here!<br>
<br>
<br>
</tt><br>

<pre wrap="">Hey All,
Im setting up a mixed etch/lenny 32/64 bits FAI enviroment. All is
working fine, but I wanted to move to a 64bits Lenny server (this was 32
bits etch)
So I installed fai-quickstart, copied /etc/fai over from the old server
(needed to adjust somesettings) and ran fai-setup.
I ended up with some errors: /lib/modules/ was empty for example, and I
had to move /srv/fai/nfsroot/live/filesystem.dir to /srv/fai/nfsroot/ or
I would get kernel panics.
The problem im running into now, is it cant find a lot off paths, and
its complaining that the filesystem is read-only.
I'seen this before at home when trying to get FAI on ubuntu. The
solution then was to move everything to the (correct) /live/filesystem.dir.
But, as said above, if I do that now, it wont boot at all...
What might be causing this read-only file system errors? Can any one
tell me? Should I move everything back to /live/filesystem.dir ? if so,
how can I prevent the kernel panic?
