Package: fai-doc Version: 3.1.8 Severity: normal Hi!
After filling /files/root with some dotfiles I expected that /scripts/FAIBASE/10-misc which is provided as an example in fai-doc would copy these files into to /root of my new fai-client by using this line: # copy default dotfiles for root account fcopy -ir /root Unfortunatly that did not bring the expected success. In fact not even a log message is shown. I then tried to use ftar by creating the FAIBASE.tar.gz in /files/root with the according dotfiles and applying the following patch: --- 10-misc.orig 2009-01-27 14:02:14.000000000 +0100 +++ 10-misc 2009-01-27 16:38:25.000000000 +0100 @@ -29,7 +29,7 @@ chmod 0700 $target/root chown root:root $target/root # copy default dotfiles for root account -fcopy -ir /root +ftar /root # create keyboard layout table $ROOTCMD bash -c "echo 'console-data console-data/keymap/full select $KEYMAP' | debconf-set-selections" This actually works but fails fatally if /files/root does not exists due to the fact that no -i option is available. Acctually we have three issues then: * why does fcopy does not work? (how is the fcopy-command supposed to be used to copy the dotfiles?) * if fcopy is actually is ok please update the sample or docs to clarify * ftar should have an -i option Thanks for maintaining and thanks for help!
