I am having trouble debugging three problems with FAI 2.4. I have not used
previous versions of FAI.
1. Installation of bootloader fails
2. Can't get shell after install or sysinfo (RETURN and Ctrl-C always
reboot).
3. Can't ssh into the machine (Connection refused).
This makes it hard to debug.
I have tried the following class combinations:
LILO MBR BOOT NET NETWORK SCSI
LILO BOOT NET NETWORK SCSI
GRUB MBR BOOT NET NETWORK SCSI
GRUB BOOT NET NETWORK SCSI
each with the following combinations of disk_config/SCSI
disk_config sda
primary /boot
primary /boot-fai
primary /
...
disk_config sda
primary /boot
primary /
...
disk_config sda
primary /
...
------------
Looking at scripts/BOOT I notice that
if LILO and MBR are defined, then lilo.conf contains boot= (blank);
will lilo know this should be /dev/sda?
GRUB doesn't respond to the MBR class. Is this correct?
Greetings.
