package: fai
version: 3.1.1
severity: important

Hi,

1. running "make-fai-bootfloppy" with no arguments results in nothing, if no 
floppy drive is available. No error, no warning, nothing. (This is not 
important, just normally annoying.)

2. Since fai-kernels 1.13 the kernel does not fit on 1.44mb floppies anymore, 
so "-B" should be the default. I consider this important :)

matrix:~# make-fai-bootfloppy -f file.img

cp: writing `/media/floppy/vmlinuz-2.6.18-fai-kernels': No space left on 
device

Uh, re-reading this, I wonder where /media/floppy comes from:

matrix:~# ls /media/  
matrix:~# 


regards,
        Holger

P.S.: the IP address it's using as default or maybe only the output also looks 
broken:
