Hi, <br>
<p>we have a problem with a working FAI installation : <br>
</p>
<p>FAI 5.7 is used to install ubuntu 16.04 & 18.04 and
debian stretch. <br>
</p>
<p>fai was made with a debian stretch, but for now it's
installed on debian 5. <br>
</p>
<p>works on lot of pc/server : <br>
</p>
<p>* install debian stretch <br>
</p>
<p>* install ubuntu 16.04 and 18.04 <br>
</p>
<p>but we received a new model Lenovo M720s Machine Type =
10ST Product ID = 10STS0KD00. <br>
</p>
<p>core i3 8th / 8 Go ram / ssd M2 nvme. <br>
</p>
<p>we change bios to use legacy <br>
</p>
<p>when we try to install , it's hang at boot (before fai start
, it's during the hardware detection ) , we boot with kernel
4.9.0-8-amd64 (from fai-setup) <br>
</p>
<p>we try to install on a working M710s => ok then push the
disk on the M720s ==> it's working (kernel
4.15.0-39-generic x86_64 of ubuntu after install). <br>
</p>
<p>We try add option on boot ( noapic , no lapic, nomodeset ,
acpi=off , ...) without success. <br>
</p>
<p>the last message on console is " [ 2.XXXXX ] clocksource:
switched to clocksource tsc " <br>
</p>
<p>We thinks that this message is good but after that, the boot
process hang. perhaps on disk or others hardware (video
/network / ..) detection. <br>
</p>
<p>Did Someone as an idea on how we can complete the boot ? <br>
</p>
<p>let me known if you want more information. <br>
</p>

<p>We try to install an ubuntu 18.04 and just copy kernel (
4.15.0-29-generic) <br>
</p>
<p>when we boot the M720s with this kernel the boot continue and
then we have another problem ; on the fai server it mount the
nfsroot but in server log we see crash of nfs and then the
/var/lib/fai/config was not mounted. <br>
</p>
<p>at the end of boot , the FAI process don't start ( ko , the
config is not ok ), we can log into the M720s ssh and we can see
/dev/nvme0 <br>
</p>
<p>the fact that the initrd and kernel we used are not generated
by fai-setup is a problem ? <br>
</p>
<p>someone knew kernel / nfs options that can avoid crash ? <br>
</p>
</blockquote>
I forget to add lib/modules/4.15.0-29-generic to the nfsroot.<br>
<br>
now final problems ( I think) : <br>
<br>
the FAI cannot create /tmp/fai and /target filesystem is read only
<br>
<br>
I have had this problem when I start the FAI for stretch because old
version of the fai server we have use aufs. <br>
so for kernel 4.9.0-8 we use rootovl <br>
<br>
I read the list on this type of problem <br>
<br>
pxe command line ( i add newline so it's more clear ) : <br>
<br>
------------------------------------------------<br>
kernel Fai/vmlinuz-4.15.0-29-generic<br>
<br>
append initrd=Fai/initrd.img-4.15.0-29-generic ip=dhcp root=/dev/nfs
nfsroot=10.91.7.21:/u1/DATA04/Fai/FAI-5.5/nfsroot rootovl <br>
FAI_FLAGS=verbose,sshd,createvt
FAI_CONFIG_SRC=nfs://10.91.7.21/u1/DATA04/Fai/FAI-5.5/config <br>
FAI_CHOIX=UB_18_04 FAI_LANG=FRENCH FAI_ACTION=install ipv6.disable=1<br>
<br>
-----------------------------------------------<br>
<br>
command mount on the m720s : <br>
<br>
10.91.7.21:/u1/DATA04/Fai/FAI-5.5/nfsroot on / type nfs
(ro,relatime,vers=3,rsize=262144,wsize=262144,namlen=255,hard,<br>
nolock,proto=tcp,port=2049,timeo=7,retrans=10,sec=sys,local_lock=all,addr=10.91.7.21)
<br>
<br>
10.91.7.21:/u1/DATA04/Fai/FAI-5.5/config on /var/lib/fai/config type
nfs (ro,noatime,vers=3,rsize=262144,wsize=262144,<br>
namlen=255,acregmin=1800,acregmax=1800,acdirmin=1800,acdirmax=1800,hard,nolock,proto=tcp,timeo=600,retrans=2,sec=sys,m<br>
ountaddr=10.91.7.21,mountvers=3,mountport=55775,mountproto=udp,local_lock=all,addr=10.91.7.21)<br>
<br>
-------------------------------------------<br>
<br>
As I said before , work perfectly with kernel 4.9.0-8 ( from
fai-setup) , we have to try with kernel 4.15.0-29 (from ubuntu )
because we have problem with lenovo M720s <br>
<br>
It seem that this kernel work with this hardware , but now nfs is
broken. <br>
<br>
any ideas ? <br>
<br>
Regards. <br>
