Package: fai-client Version: 3.2.4+svn4837-0ubuntu2 Severity: normal
Hi, We noted a problem when launching faireboot the following way: ssh installing_host -l root faireboot Reboot never occurs. The problem seems related to the fact that ssh is closing the session before the backgrounded init call has finished or even started. So the init/reboot process is aborted. The solution we found to solve this problem was to add a sleep time after the init call in faireboot script ########################################################## if [ "X" == "X$SSH_CLIENT" -a "$TERM" != "dumb" ]; then exec reboot -dfi else killall -CONT rcS killall rcS init 6 & # addition here sleep 10 fi ########################################################## Would it be possible to add a default/configurable sleep time after the init call in faireboot? It would allow us to keep in sync with fai without having to "patch" it after each new version is released? Thank you very much in advance!
