Two new releases are available:
fai 2.3.4 and fai-kernels 1.4
I hope, that they will make it into woody. Since fai 2.3.3 was only
availabe for several hours here are all news.
The most important news is, that fai-kernel now include a 2.2.20 and a
2.4.18 kernel, which both support the BOOTP and DHCP protocol. So you
have to define which protocol to use.
Append "ip=bootp" or "ip=dhcp" as a kernel parameter.
New in FAI 2.3.4
- the default name for fai kernel-image package has changed to
kernel-image-2.2.20_fai1_i386.deb, since the package fai-kernel
>=1.4 contains install kernels which support both the BOOTP and
DHCP protocol
New in FAI 2.3.3
- important bug fix (wrong symlink for rcS_fai)
- copy id_dsa* and id_rsa* files in make-fai-nfsroot
- use strict enabled in perl scripts
- add "append ip=dhcp" in pxelinux.cfg/default
- minor changes in packages_config files
- setup_harddisks default fs type changed from auto to ext2
fai-kernels
-----------
fai-kernels (1.4) unstable; urgency=medium
* remove setting of DEB_HOST_ARCH in rules file (closes: #146107)
* add build-depends on bin86
* merge the two 2.2.20 kernels to one that support both BOOTP and DHCP
* override obsolete 1.3 version of this package, but add 2.4 kernel support
