   I believe it is a known bug which was adressed in fai (> 2.8.4) by
specifying the exact way to mke2fs in /usr/sbin/make-fai-bootfloppy.
It could be that takong only  the appropriate line from fai 2.9, or perhaps
only /usr/sbin/make-fai-bootfloppy from fai (>= 2.9) will work  for you. and
ofcourse you can always considering upgrading.

  I  do hope so. I can't boot with grub 0.97-3 from (unstable).  I intend
to  try lilo.

  I got this too. I hope that using 
     chroot fai-nfsroot lilo 
in /usr/sbin/make-fai-bootfloppy will work because the problem is due
to an attempt to use libedvportmapper from the fai server. I don't have 
this lib installed for the fai-server other then in fai's nfsroot.


  Do let us know if my suggestons {didn't,} worked for you.
