The base.tgz is a packaged NFSROOT (plus some additional packages, minus some tweaks only needed for the NFSROOT), and it's usually built from scratch with each fai-setup run - or, better, it is created from scratch with each make-fai-nfsroot, which is called by fai-setup. The NFSROOT is created by calling deboostrap, which needs a debian mirror usually. It is entirely possible that the "finished successfully" statement is wrong - you could check your nfsroot and base.tgz if they really contain anything useful. Henning
