Back to the first post. It's wrong to use an unmodified fai.conf and
try fai softupdate.

FAI_CONFIGDIR is only used on the install server. It's not used by an
install client. Maybe the comment is a little bit confusing. So this
variable should be moved to make-fai-nfsroot.conf to make things
clearer.

If you install a client using FAI, a new definition for
FAI_CONFIG_SRC will be appended to /etc/fai/fai.conf during the
installation (e.g. FAI_CONFIG_SRC=nfs://kueppers/srv/fai/cslenny).
So the install client can do softupdate (from the same config space
as during first installation), because it knows were to fetch the
config space.

If you like to use another source as config space, you have to edit
FAI_CONFIG_SRC in /etc/fai/fai.conf on the install client.

IMO the problem occured because of a bad usage of FAI_CONFIGDIR.
