Re: setup storage can't use % or G
ok, so apparently i was accidently using the older version of FAI that's why it couldn't parse i can choose to NOT USE SETUPSTORAGE and i can do an fai install fine but now i'm having problems on the reboot with a setupstorage install after FAI finishes the system hangs on boot i need to get the log still but i noticed it's looking for volgroup-00 or something and i haven't defined any vg by that name and also is trying to setup mdadm when i don't have a raid configuration setup. i just went to my host-classes-50 added SETUPSTORAGE to that host class changed the SETUPSTORAGE.var file to enable and debug used a disk_config as follows: disk_config sda bootable:1 primary /boot 500 ext3defaults primary - 6096- - - disk_config lvm vg vg0 sda2 vg0-swap swap10%swap sw vg0-dev /dev10%xfsdefaults vg0-var /var10%xfsdefaults vg0-home /home 10%-30%xfsdefaults vg0-root / 10%xfsdefaults it installs but i get some funny messages and then on reboot it just stops at either trying to start syslog or mount root I'll try and get a log in a little bit and post here.

Please add the class SETUPSTORAGE to your host name or define the variable USE_SETUP_STORAGE=1. Then the new tool is used.
Re: setup storage can't use % or G
ok so i tried not including /dev and it does the same thing it halts on trying to mount root on startup when i reboot i've attached the log Oh yes ... please add $ROOTCMD update-initramfs -k all -u to one of your scripts, maybe LAST/50-misc or add some script named SETUPSTORAGE; we'll add that in the in examples. The problem is that lvm2 is installed _after_ your kernel packages, and thus the necessary scripts and modules don't make their way into the initramfs.

setup storage can't use % or G
I've upgraded to the latest FAI with SETUP_STORAGE i tried using the default SETUP_STORAGE disk layout but it doesn't like the lines that define like 4G for 4 Gigabytes or 10% for 10% of disk FAI will throw an error and says there's a problem with disk_setup configuration on the lines that contain those type of disk descriptions. So i have to hard define disks like 500-4000 instead of 500-4G or 500-4000 instead of 500-10% TIA, James

i just used the example file in FAI /usr/share/doc/fai-doc/examples/simple/disk_config/SETUPSTORAGE i didn't edit anything I'm sorry, but I fail to reproduce this, the file parses properly. Could you please provide the log files generated by setup-storage? Thanks, Michael pgp4lsHalkGAW.pgp Description: PGP signature
