> Is there a trick in FAI to force an installation order? FAI itself does only create long list of package names that are then feed to apt, aptitude or apt-get. These tools then decide in which order to install the packages. In install_packages we define in which order the package tools are called. our @commands = qw/ ..... install install-norec aptitude aptitude-r...../; That means first apt-get is called with the list of packages under a "PACKAGES install" section from package_config, then apt-get --no-install-recommends (PACKAGES install-norec), then aptitude,.... You could list some package in the sections for apt-get (line PACKAGES install) and list other packages in other sections. -- regards Thomas
