Package: fai-server
Version: 3.2.9
Severity: normal
When I try to set my kernel parameters manually, like this for example:
server:~# fai-chboot -F -k "initrd=initrd.img-2.6.25-2-686 ip=dhcp
root=/dev/nfs nfsroot=/srv/fai/nfsroot boot=live" vmlinuz-2.6.25-2-686
192.168.100.15
Kernel parameters: initrd=initrd.img-2.6.25-2-686 ip=dhcp root=/dev/nfs
nfsroot=/srv/fai/nfsroot boot=live
i get the following content in the file /srv/tftp/fai/pxelinux.cfg/C0A8640F:
# generated by fai-chboot for host 192.168.100.15 with IP 192.168.100.15
default fai-generated
label fai-generated
kernel vmlinuz-2.6.25-2-686
when it should be:
shin:~# cat /srv/tftp/fai/pxelinux.cfg/C0A8640F
# generated by fai-chboot for host 192.168.100.15 with IP 192.168.100.15
default fai-generated
label fai-generated
kernel vmlinuz-2.6.25-2-686
append initrd=initrd.img-2.6.25-2-686 ip=dhcp root=/dev/nfs
nfsroot=/srv/fai/nfsroot boot=live FAI_FLAGS=verbose,sshd,createvt
That's because of this line in the function mkpxecfg:
print FILE $append if $rootfs;
Indeed, $rootfs is only set when using -i or -o since this line is commented in
the 'else' part of the option-detection code:
# $rootfs = shift or die "No rootfs specified.\n";
Removing the test on $rootfs in mkpxecfg is a quick fix but there should be
another solution.
