We are using always lucid kernels. So, even as tftp boot kernel ?

All necessary stuff to boot a lucid kernel and initrd is in upstream integrated, as far as your NFSROOT takes care of any package name differences between Debian and Ubuntu. Have fun, Waldemar
Re: resizing an lvm volume with setup-storage
Michael Tautschnig a écrit : Hello, I'm trying to resize the /usr volume while installing a host in squeeze with 3.3.4~beta2+experimental1, and setup-storage strangely removes the volume before trying to resize it: Starting setup-storage 1.2.1+exp [...] vg0/usr will be resized [...] Executing: lvremove -f vg0/usr [...] Executing: lvresize -L 8192 vg0/usr Command lvresize -L 8192 vg0/usr had exit code 5 [...] Following is the config file; as it's the first time I use this option it might be wrong somewhere. [...] You might in fact be the first one ever to use this feature :-) Seriously, it's pretty likely this is somehow broken. Would you mind pasting the full output with debug enabled? I've just checked the code and there *is* a check for resize at the respective part, but maybe I'm missing something or whatever. Woaw, the first one, I feel somehow like Neil Armstrong :-) . The paste is below, in this case I have preserved 2 other volumes, but the result is the same if I don't. http://paste.debian.net/64852/ -- Nicolas

But let me give you some new coordinates: 3.3.4+experimental1. That version ought to work better. Best, Michael pgp1EQobsNdrP.pgp Description: PGP signature
Re: FAI 3.3.3 + Ubuntu Lucid
Hi Guys, ok...ubuntu lucid server + fai 3.3.4 == success. I'll add some tweaks for Ubuntu (which are necessary) and will push that to the FAI PPA. Thomas, I know I'm pinching you now, but can we actually move from a native package to a non-native?

Re: resizing an lvm volume with setup-storage
Michael Tautschnig a écrit : I think you haven't landed yet :-) There are still some obstacles out there in space. But let me give you some new coordinates: 3.3.4+experimental1. That version ought to work better. Well, /usr is not removed any more, but the kernel seems unhappy : http://paste.debian.net/64861/ -- Nicolas
