Roland has a problem with fai-setup if he configures fai.conf and sources.list 
to use sarge... (see below).

I have no idea about your problem, but succedd with the following hook, so I 
am able to install most of my machines with woody but some with sarge 
_from_one_fai_server:

./hooks/instsoft.$hostname
------schnipp-begin-----------
#! /bin/sh
# after installing the woody base system
# it get's upgraded to sarge
# before installing packages...

echo "Upgrading to sarge..."
fcopy /etc/apt/sources.list # containing sarge
$ROOTCMD apt-get update
$ROOTCMD apt-get -u dist-upgrade
------schnipp-end-----------

There is also Hennings install_packages 
(http://www.physik.fu-berlin.de/~glaweh/fai/), which I didn't try cause I 
couldn't figure out how it works. Henning, could you please give a hint, I 
would like to try it. Does it work with fai 2.5.4 ? How to use it ? Just 
provide $target/etc/apt/sources.list ?


regards,
	Holger
