Hello fellow FAI users and developers,
I was setting up an automatic (FAI) dual-boot installation, and set up
disk_config with a config file (in case it's useful for anyone) like this:
disk_config sda bootable:1 resize:1,2
primary - 100M:resize - -
primary - 200G:resize - -
primary / 30G ext4 rw,errors=remount-ro
logical swap 8G swap rw
logical /var 10G ext4 rw createopts="-m 5"
tuneopts="-c 0 -i 0"
logical /tmp 15G ext4 rw createopts="-m 0"
tuneopts="-c 0 -i 0"
logical /data 0- ext4 rw,nosuid createopts="-m 0"
tuneopts="-c 0 -i 0"
This worked to the point where FAI attempted to resize /dev/sda2, and in
the log, I saw that the command looked like this:
Executing: yes | ntfsresize -s 214746632704/dev/sda2
I.e. there was no space between the size and the device. I poked around,
and found where the command was being built (Commands.pm) in the
fai-setup-storage package.
So, I fixed it by changing /usr/share/fai/setup-storage/Commands.pm from:
=================================================
&FAI::push_command( "yes | ntfsresize -s " . $part->{size}->{eff_size} .
&FAI::make_device_name($disk, $p), "rebuilt_" .
&FAI::make_device_name($disk, $p) . $deps, "ntfs_ready_for_rm_" .
&FAI::make_device_name($disk, $p) );
=================================================
to:
=================================================
&FAI::push_command( "yes | ntfsresize -s " . $part->{size}->{eff_size} .
" " .
&FAI::make_device_name($disk, $p), "rebuilt_" .
&FAI::make_device_name($disk, $p) . $deps, "ntfs_ready_for_rm_" .
&FAI::make_device_name($disk, $p) );
=================================================
I.e. added a space after the size. Now it works.
I hope this helps everyone!
Cheers,
Iordan Iordanov
