Hi list,
I'm trying (and partly succeeded) in getting FAI (3.3.3+experimental9)
running on lenny to install squeeze.
I've done such constructions before, using sarge nfsroot to install etch
and lenny, mixing 32 and 64 bit. And so on ;)
I set out to do the same exercise again for squeeze.
I used pbuilder to create a base tar gz file.
During the further setup I saw that ifupdown and man package were not
installed in the base image
I also noticed that grub had changed to grub2 in squeeze.
All these things can be worked around.
The current issue I'm now facing is that /sbin/policy-rc.d was left on
my system.
I saw in the fai changelog that support for policy-rc.d was added.
However it's not clear to my how and what the effects are.
It seems to me that after the installation the file needs to be deleted.
I can put this in a script or hook.
But shouldn't fai already have taken care of that? Did it do that
before with Lenny? Or is this fixed in a newer version?
Thanks!
Rudy
