I have FAI 3.3.2 on Lenny installing Lenny clients from a CD I generated, very nice!
I also want to make a CD from Lenny that installs Etch clients and I figure that goes something like this - In /etc/fai/apt/sources, change the sources to etch In /etc/fai/make-fai-nfsroot.conf, change FAI_DEBOOTSTRAP to etch fai-setup -v Setup config space, make class "ETCH" cp -a /usr/share/doc/fai-doc/examples/simple/* /srv/fai/config mkdir /srv/fai/config/basefiles cp /srv/fai/nfsroot/live/filesystem.dir/var/tmp/base.tgz /srv/fai/config/basefiles/ETCH.tar.gz Edit /srv/fai/config/class/50-host-classes, add ETCH to demohost Create a partial Etch mirror fai-mirror -cETCH /fai-etch-partial-mirror fai-cd -m /fai-etch-partial-mirror my-cd.iso Now after I boot this Lenny CD the fai menu appears, I choose to install "demohost", it will lay down an Etch system right? But sadly it has trouble (mounting the root fs I think) and drops into a shell - (initramfs) ...and the running kernel is 2.6.18-6-486 (Etch) live.log says - "Mounting aufs on /root failed, no such device" Now after reading more I think I need to get aufs into my installer (Lenny), and maybe my initrd or Etch filesystem too? Not sure. I can install these on Lenny - aufs-modules-2.6-486 and aufs-modules-2.6.26-2-486 But then if I run fai-setup again debootstrap etch says - Couldn't find any package whose name or description matched "aufs-modules-2.6-486" What to do... Help?
