Hello,
according to the HTML user guide, there seems to be no option to "not reboot" a node that
successfully finished a sysinfo or install run - except to add something to the error log
forcefully (e.g. in a "last" hook).
Citing the guide, "reboot: ... If this flag is not set, and error.log contains anything,
the install client will stop and wait that you press RETURN. If no errors occurred, the
client will always reboot automatically." (similar for halt).
I have found an old patch I used to apply to FAI 3.x (with boot=live) that deactivated
the check of the error log, and stopped if neither "reboot" nor "halt" were requested:

/usr/lib/fai/subroutines in a jessie nfsroot seems not to check the size of error.log
(nor can I find a mention of error.log in any other place). Is the (5.0) user guide wrong,
or do I have to look in the right places for a change?
Cheers,
Steffen
