Hi, yesterday I tried to FAI setup about 600 nodes using one file/webserver. While mounting the nfsroot took its time for some of the nodes, and there was no problem, I got lots of http download errors (resulting in that famous Broken package, and error 25600 messages). Is there a way to allow more tolerance (longer timeouts) to the apt operations? At the moment I try to catch this situation in a chboot hook, but that would deprive me of the correctly downloaded error messages... how much effort would it be to run the savelog task before the chboot task? (and has there be a reason for the current order?)
