Hello,
I am trying to install a brand-new amd64 machine using FAI 3.2.20,
with the following setup:
* two disks as two raid1 sets (/boot + lvm for everything else)
* /boot on md0, the rest in one big volume group
So far, my setup-storage file looks like this:
--------------------- cut
disk_config sda bootable:1
primary - 200 - -
primary - 0- - -
disk_config sdb bootable:1
primary - 200 - -
primary - 0- - -
disk_config raid
raid1 /boot sda1,sdb1 ext2 rw
raid1 - sda2,sdb2 - -
disk_config lvm
vg uv0 md1
uv0-root / 500 ext3 rw,errors=remount-ro
uv0-swap swap 4096 swap sw
uv0-usr /usr 20480 ext3 rw
uv0-var /var 2048 ext3 rw
uv0-qmail /var/qmail 200 ext3 rw
uv0-home /home 60000- ext3 rw
uv0-var_log /var/log 1024 ext3 rw
uv0-qmail_queue /var/qmail/queue 1024 ext3 rw
--------------------- cut
Originally, I had the last two lines written as:
uv0-var--log /var/log 1024 ext3 rw
uv0-qmail--queue /var/qmail/queue 1024 ext3 rw
which is what I have on a manually installed system, but this gave me
this error message:
Partitioning local harddisks using setup-storage
Starting setup-storage 1.0.5
Use of uninitialized value $to_be_preserved in numeric eq (==) at (eval 60) line 5614, <$config_file> line 1.
ERROR (line 34): Invalid file: Was expecting /\Z/ but found "uv0-var--
log /var/log 1024 ext3 rw" instead
Syntax error
Anyway, now I get this error message instead:
Executing: /lib/udev/vol_id -u /dev/md0
Command /lib/udev/vol_id -u /dev/md0 had exit code 2
Failed to obtain UUID for /dev/md0
Error in task partition. Traceback: task_error task_partition task task_install task task_action task main
FATAL ERROR. Installation stopped.
Reading the mailing list suggests that I should try an SVN snapshot or
something. Can anyone please give me more hints about where to look?
TIA!
Kind regards,
