Hi Thomas, > Do you get any error messages? Please check if FAI_DEBMIRROR is also > defined during installation (check variables.log) FAI_DEBMIRROR is not in variables.log on the installation system. But this is weird: MNTPOINT is in there but with a wrong path! It says "MNTPOINT=/media/mirror" whereas in my fai.conf it reads "MNTPOINT=/mnt/mirror". I tried re-running "fai-setup -f" but it's still the same...
When I add FAI_DEBMIRROR=192.168.1.250:/srv/hdd/debmirror/mirror MNTPOINT=/mnt/mirror as kernel parameters the mirror is mounted to /target/mnt/mirror correctly. I thought fai-make-nfsroot is supposed to use the values given in fai.conf as defaults... BTW: The same problem occurs with FAI_CONFIG_SRC. I also need to explicitely specify this as a kernel parameter in the TFTP config space.
