Bug#379347: found solution

2006-07-22 Thread Henning Sprang
after more trying I found out, that when I give --debootstrap, the command finished, seemingly successfully. This is nowhere documented - every example on the web and in the manpage is without that option, and I would assume that the scripts "knows" itself when to use debootstrap and when to use r

I also tried the same with a loopback dislk image - no success. I do exactlky what is documented, and have no idea how to investigate the problem further. Let me know what I can try to give more help on solving this bug. Maybe the call to the external program should not be made in a way that ana

2006-06-02 Thread Henning Sprang
BTW: I don't understand the name of this bug. Why is a bug which creates problems in nfsroot building filed with the topic that fai gives an error at install time: "nfs: RPC call returned error 101" I am not sure because it's a while since I had that, is it possible that make-fai-nfsroot doesn't
