Package: fai-server Version: 3.2.1 Severity: normal --- Please enter the report below this line. --- After setting up FAI with fai-setup, hosts fail to boot with the following error:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Begin: Mounting root file system... ... /init: .: 150: Can't open /scripts/live Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Indeed, there is no /srv/fai/nfsroot/live/filesystem.dir/usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/live file. It seems to be related to package live-initramfs missing in Etch, DebianLive FAQ suggests "Add latest live-initramfs deb package into config/chroot_local-packages directory and rebuild" for exactly this problem and fai-setup complains about unknown package "live-initramfs". Here comes the full output of fai-setup: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Creating FAI nfsroot in /srv/fai/nfsroot/live/filesystem.dir.
