Maybe add an option -C (crazy) :-) No, use another letter (r for reuse?) -- regards Thomas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Bug#600195: fai-server: support execution of fai-setup without recreating nfsroot
Package: fai-server Version: 3.4.2 Severity: wishlist For a fully-automated deployment of a FAI server¹ I'd like to be able to re-use an existing nfsroot. All I'd need is the relevant setup instructions of fai-setup without invoking the line containing: make-fai-nfsroot $options so my nfsroot doesn't get lost. I'm aware that you shouldn't re-use an existing nfsroot if you make any changes in the normal deployment cycle. But I'm booting virtual machines for setting up the FAI server and the machine *optionally* re-uses an existing nfsroot to speed up the deployment process if testing FAI releases. So an option to just skip the make-fai-nfsroot part but build /etc/exports etc. anyway would be nice. If there aren't any objections/alternative suggestions I'd come up with a patch. ¹ Yes, I'm really talking about the server part. :) I'm automatically setting up FAI servers to install Debian for testing FAI releases. regards, -mika- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
