Ok, seems like FAI 3.2.8 is not fully compatible with etch :-); I guess you will need to hack the disk-info script in your NFSROOT. I think it should suffice to look at the code of disk-info and do the reverse of what the comment in line 17 says, that is: - throw away line 18 - put [ `cat /sys/block/$device/removable` -eq 1 ] && isdisk=0 back in place Best, Michael
