OOPS -- I've done something wrong.
In /tmp/fai/boot.log, the lines containing HOSTNAME= and SERVER= are
missing. It looks to me like dhclient should write this to boot.log?
No reference to dhclient is found in Fai-Guide.
I have FAI4.0.8 that builds demohost almost successfully, except
/etc/hostname is set to "(none)". In the FAI documentation I see from
the list of variables that no place is specified to set HOSTNAME. In
reading FAI scripts, it looks like dhclient has failed to write
HOSTNAME= into boot.log. Also in get-boot-info script under
get-dhcp-info() are references to /usr/share/fai/dhclient-fai.conf and
dhclient-fai-script files that seem to be missing [on purpose?].
Another opportunity to find hostname comes from DNS. After the host is
built. the newly created target host does correctly resolves both the
hostname and the FQDN. It seems that DNS may be OK.
SO -- if dhclient is to pick up HOSTNAME from the "host ..." parameter
found in /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf then I am not finding my mistake. Does
this sound familiar to anyone?
Cheers
George
