error while running fai-setup for ubuntu-edgy

[Muniven Shekar-PTH473]

Reinhard,

My /etc/fai/apt/sources.list looks like this..

deb http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu edgy main
#deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian etch main contrib non-free
#deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu edgy-security main non-free
deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu edgy-security main restricted
universe multiverse
#deb http://security.debian.org/debian-security etch/updates main
contrib non-free
deb http://www.informatik.uni-koeln.de/fai/download etch koeln

Have you tried creating fai CD for any of the ubuntu releases?

Thanks,
Shekar

Most probably the /etc/fai/apt/sources.list doesn't containt suffient
sources for the nfsroot. I intend to do fai 3.2.1 backports for various
earlier versions of ubuntu in the fai PPA on launchpad later this week.

Stay tuned!
