Hello there,
I'm sitting since hours but do not see the problem:
I want to integrate my FAI-clients with a WindowsDC. Therefore I need a
minimal userinput via dialog to get DC-username and DC-password. So I
need german locales in NFSROOT.
This is done via the hook /etc/fai/nfsroot-hooks/locales, but it fails.
It doesn't look like a real FAI problem, but perhaps someone could
please give me a hint or her/his hook file.
The file /etc/fai/nfsroot-hooks/locales looks like:
echo "set locales/locales_to_be_generated de_DE.UTF-8 UTF-8" | chroot
$NFSROOT debconf-communicate
echo "set locales/default_environment_locale de_DE.UTF-8" | chroot
$NFSROOT debconf-communicate
chroot $NFSROOT dpkg-reconfigure -fnoninteractive locales
and I get the following messages from fai-setup -fl:
[...]

*** update-locale: Error: invalid locale settings: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8

I searched and learned a lot about locales, configuration, debconf and
so on but nothing worked.
When I modify the NFSROOT (after creation) with:
chroot /srv/fai/nfsroot/live/filesystem.dir dpkg-reconfigure locales
then I can easily modify locale settings (without errors), but the
noninteractive way it fails.
What do I do wrong?
