Creating squeeze nfsroot, no initrd found

[Ralph Majer]

Hi,

I have the same problem as mentioned in the archive below:
https://lists.uni-koeln.de/pipermail/linux-fai/2010-June/008001.html

The initrd is not generated even when using "fai-setup -v -U"
I'm running fai on debian squeeze and want to install a debian squeeze.

Do you have any idea what I can try?



In the log file I see some statements on initrd but nothing that helps me:
...
