ok,
so apparently i was accidently using the older version of FAI that's why
it couldn't parse
i can choose to NOT USE SETUPSTORAGE and i can do an fai install fine
but now i'm having problems on the reboot with a setupstorage install
after FAI finishes the system hangs on boot
i need to get the log still but i noticed it's looking for volgroup-00
or something and i haven't defined any vg by that name and also is
trying to setup mdadm when i don't have a raid configuration setup.
i just went to my host-classes-50
added "SETUPSTORAGE" to that host class
changed the SETUPSTORAGE.var file to enable and debug
used a disk_config as follows:
disk_config sda bootable:1
primary /boot 500 ext3 defaults
primary - 6096- - -
disk_config lvm
vg vg0 sda2
vg0-swap swap 10% swap sw
vg0-dev /dev 10% xfs defaults
vg0-var /var 10% xfs defaults
vg0-home /home 10%-30% xfs defaults
vg0-root / 10% xfs defaults
it installs but i get some funny messages and then on reboot it just
stops at either trying to start syslog or mount root
I'll try and get a log in a little bit and post here.
TIA,
James
