New user facing problems

[Vinayakam Murugan]

Hi

Our company is into providing linux based network management and email 
solutions. We are using Redhat Linux but we would like to switch to the 
GNU/Debian distro.

One of our requirements is to create a CD based Installer which automatically 
configure the mail / file server at our clients place. This was achieved 
using Anaconda / Kickstart in Redhat. We were looking for alternatives in 
Debian and stumbled on FAI.

Is there detailed documentation on FAI especially for CDbased installation 
available on the net?

Now coming to the main issue :

I installed the FAI and FAI kernels packages, edited FAI.conf and ran FAI 
setup. It did not happen successfully. I have attached the output of 
make-fai-nfsroot -v along with this mail.

These are the final lines of the log I captured.

Can anyone help me proceed?
