Hi, My pxe booted client does NOT mount the config directory
/srv/fai/config.
I can login to the client and manually do it successfully.
The setup I'm using is syslinux. The dhcp broadcast takes about a
minute to complete successfully...something about the broadcast going
through the switch, I.e., I not directly on the local subnet but connected
via some VLAN magic setup of port configuration. Perhaps this accounts
for why the config directory isn't being mounted? I.e., timeout problems
Auto logins to install server don't work because ssh keeps asking:
authenticity of host can't be established...presumably because there
is mismatch between the keys in installserver:/etc/ssh and those
installed by fai-setup into /home/fai?
pxelinux.cfg/default has:
label fai-sysinfo
kernel fai/vmlinuz-install
append ip=dhcp FAI_CONFIG_SRC=nfs://192.168.1.1/srv/fai/config
FAI_ACTION=sysinfo root=/dev/nfs nfsroot=192.168.1.1:/srv
/fai/nfsroot,v3,tcp,rsize=32768,wsize=32768 FAI_FLAGS=verbose,sshd,createvt
Yes, the append line is one line :-)
