Hello, 

First, congratulation for the project. 

I'm new using fai and I have a problem with booting vmlinuz-install.

I have installed fai on my laptop under SID and want to install Debian
sarge on a P 133  HP Vectra VL using 3com card.

I'm booting using PXE, DHCP, TFTP. The network connection works fine
because the client load vmlinuz-install. But nothing else.

I have :

  PXELINUX 2.11...
  ...
  ...
  Trying to load: pxelinux.cfg/default
  Loading vmlinuz-install........................................Ready.
  _

Then nothing happens !!


- What is exactly wmlinuz-install (a kernel :-) and how is it built ?

- I've tried to boot on my previous working kernel vmlinuz-2.4.18-bf2.4 
  but the boot process stopped asking for floppy root disk.


I read some documentation but found nothing about this. And nothing (yet
:-) in the fai scripts


Any help will be welcome.

	François
