Hi all, We're trying to use FAI to install Debian servers with all partitions, including root, on LVM. The GRUB_PC/10-setup script fails. I added "bash -x" and I get the following in error.log:
fai.log:GRUB_PC/10-setup FAILED with exit code 1. shell.log:+ trap 'error=$(($?>$error?$?:$error))' ERR shell.log:grub-probe: error: cannot find a GRUB drive for /dev/VolGroup00/LVroot. Check your device.map. shell.log:++ error=1 shell.log:++ error=1 shell.log:cat: /boot/grub/video.lst: No such file or directory shell.log:GRUB_PC/10-setup FAILED with exit code 1. But if after this error, I go into a shell and "chroot /target", I can run "grub-install /dev/sda" and that works: the installed system boots fine off the LVM. If we set up root or /boot as a traditional physical partition, this does not happen. Here's the config we're trying to use: disk_config sda primary - 0- - - disk_config lvm vg VolGroup00 sda1 VolGroup00-LVroot / 4096 ext4 rw VolGroup00-LVswap swap 2048 swap sw VolGroup00-LVusr /usr 4096 ext4 rw VolGroup00-LVvar /var 4096 ext4 rw And a config that works: disk_config sda primary /boot 300 ext4 rw primary - 0- - - disk_config lvm vg VolGroup00 sda2 VolGroup00-LVroot / 4096 ext4 rw VolGroup00-LVswap swap 2048 swap sw VolGroup00-LVusr /usr 4096 ext4 rw VolGroup00-LVvar /var 4096 ext4 rw Are we doing something wrong? We're still not sure we're using setup-storage correctly. Thanks, Aaron -- Aaron Hall <aaron.h...@washburn.edu> Asst. Systems & Network Administrator Washburn University ITS 785-670-2305
