question on a java install script

[Michael Tautschnig]

Hi David,

All indications in the logs are that it worked fine and that java and tomcat should be present, yet when I boot the client after FAI install there is no java or tomcat.  The license file is /etc/java as expected, but none of the packages have actually been installed.  Thinking that somehow I was installing on the nfsroot if possible, I tried adding $ROOTCMD before the apt-get with no success. That created errors complaining that that debconf couldn't find the license file. Can anyone see what I'm doing wrong?

I think things are much easier if you put this into a debconf/* file in your
config space, e.g., debconf/DEFAULT:

sun-java6-bin   shared/accepted-sun-dlj-v1-1    boolean true
sun-java6-jdk   shared/accepted-sun-dlj-v1-1    boolean true
sun-java6-jre   shared/accepted-sun-dlj-v1-1    boolean true

This way you can simply install your sun-* packages and tomcat6 via one of your
package_config/* files.

Hope this helps,
Michael
