Hello list,
I've come across a problem with setup-storage.
I had this working with version 4.0~beta2+experimental60 (not sure about the
last digit) but the latest experimental version complains about the fact that
previous
partitions overflow the beginning of a *preserved* partition.
I have attached some debug output.
Initially I worked with FAI version 3.4.7 but preservation doesn't seem to work
with LVMs ... it complains about the fact that it can't preserve some partition
that
doesn't exist ... but it does obviously, more precisely /dev/bic_pv/_exp in my
case.
If I use preserve_always, it dies and prints the warning but if I use
preserve_lazy,
it overwites the partition.
I then tried the experimental version - version 4.0~beta2+experimental60 at the
time
and this worked quite nicely. I then recently rebuilt my NFSROOT with the
latest experimental
version and it now complains about overflow. The behavior is the same whether I
use
preserve_always or preserve_lazy BTW.
Note also the strange place where the error message is located ... search
for overflow ...
I have perl version 5.10.1-17 installed in my nfsroot.
PS - no real harm done on my installation as I'm in a testing phase ...
All the best,
---
