Ok i think i'm starting to understand all this now.
Last thing i need to figure out is this.
So now i have the entire class called TEST
i've created a line in config/class/50-host-classes
like :
################################################
case $HOSTNAME in
test)
echo "FAIBASE DHCPC TEST" ;;
################################################
i created a disk profile at config/disk_config/TEST
################################################
disk_config disk1
primary / 150-300 rw,errors=remount-ro ; -c -j ext3
logical swap 40-500 rw
logical /var 90-1000 rw ; -m 5 -j xfs
logical /tmp 50-1000 rw ; -m 0 -j xfs
logical /usr 200-4000 rw ; -j xfs
logical /home 50- rw,nosuid ; -m 1 -j xfs
# logical /home preserve9 rw,nosuid ; -m 1 -j ext3
################################################
i created a config/package_config/TEST
################################################
PACKAGES aptitude
postfix
################################################
that's about it because i just want to test it as simply as possible
right now.
So how do i get the bootfloppy to call the "TEST" class?
do i just do a
#> make-fai-bootfloppy -s TEST ip=::::::dhcp
nfsroot=127.x.x.x:/srv/fai/nfsroot
cause that's my understanding now. if not please let me know
On a side not it's not the actual english in the documentation that's
hard to understand.
It's just how to narrow down some of the information and filter out what
i didn't need.
In a more complex setup i imagine i'll be using most to all of the info
but right now things are pretty simple i just need a few custom packages
here and there and how to instruct a boot floppy/cd to grab that class.
Maybe a guide for the impatient on creating a class by example and cut
out the big details.
i personally would find that useful. :D
Thanks
