Hello there, this mail is just for the archive. It's about my second problem with setup_storage, but that has been my fault (misconfiguration). Perhaps it's a bug in setup-storage, too, but it can be worked around easily.
I had problems with disk_config and a virtual disk in a virtual machine. Using a valid configuration (no problems for real hardware), I got: ... Using config file: /var/lib/fai/config/disk_config/DEFAULT Executing: wipefs -a /dev/vda1 (STDERR) wipefs: error: /dev/vda1: probing initialization failed: File or directory not found. Command had non-zero exit code Error in task partition. Code 710 Problem was that I previously formated the virtual disk with a filesystem (ext4) from KVM host. Because of this it wasn't detected as a drive and so no new MBR could be created. I found out / solved it using cfdisk in the virtual machine. cfdisk warned me that the device has an "ext4 signature" and that it will be destroyed when continuing. So i did it and with next reboot FAI installed without an error. Christian
