hi!

got the problem with fai 2.6.6 fixed by uncommenting the line mentioned by 
jimmy.
now the (DEMO-)installation runs through, partitioning the HD, installing 
packages etc. at the end it ells me that some errors occured in error.log. 
then the usual message ("hit enter to reboot....") appears.
after rebooting grub is trying to boot the default entry, but fails with error 
message "Error 1 - File name must by either an absolute pathname or 
blocklist".
error.log tells me the following:

cfengine.log:Currently non existent variable $(HOSTNAME)
cfengine.log:Currently non existent variable $(HOSTNAME)
dmesg.log:cdrom: open failed.
rcS.log:Fontconfig error: Cannot load default config file
rcS.log:Fontconfig error: Cannot load default config file
shell.log:E: Couldn't find package kernel-image-2.4.27-1-386
shell.log:ls: vmlinuz-*: No such file or directory
shell.log:ls: /tmp/target/boot/vmlinuz-*: No such file or directory
shell.log:Can't match device: /dev/root
software.log:Fontconfig error: Cannot load default config file
software.log:Fontconfig error: Cannot load default config file

fai-kernels is installed, the correct KERNELPACKAGE ist set 
in /etc/fai/make-fai-nfsroot.conf

any ideas?
thanks in advance!

mat.
