[15:54] See also: http://faiwiki.informatik.uni-koeln.de/index.php/Source:SW_RAID_LVM [15:56] thanks [15:58] Mrfai, the new fai cd, were you be able to build it completly in etch, or did you use sarge packages as well= [15:58] s/=/?/ [16:00] I've create the mirror, nfsroot and config space on etch, create some tarballs, copied thos tarball to a sarge machine and build the iso image there. [16:00] so you cant build a fai cd in etch? (i'm asking not to tell other people something wrong) [16:01] and i (slowly) resumed working on the new fai cd today ;) [16:01] no you can't. Except if you have a sarge chroot on an etch system. [16:01] well :) [16:02] IMO the best way to replace mkinitrd-cd is to extend mkinitramfs. I talked to the grml guys. They are also interested in extending mkinitramfs for booting from CD/USB Stick. [16:02] MAybe we can do some work on it during debcamp [16:02] why not use casper? [16:03] why reinvent the wheel? [16:03] casper is too complicated, that means it's too big. [16:07] why do you think its complicated? use live-helper and be happy :) [16:09] I didn't look at live-helper, but live-package was too huge. Did they change a lot? Also I like to boot from a removable media, without having a loop file which contains the file system. fai-cd uses a plain file system, and does not need a loop mounted file. [16:10] Loop mounted files are read-only AFAIK, so you can write to then when put onto a USB stick. [16:10] they are not read-only [16:10] unionfs takes care of it (or something else, but thats easily possible (and done with live-helper) [16:11] what did you consider huge with l-p? the package? the resulting image? [16:11] live-helper also supports booting from usb now [16:12] the dependencies on other package. l-p needs packages which I do not like to have on a fai-cd. [16:12] l-p doesnt end up on the cd [16:14] I have to leave. Sorry. I hope we can go in more details at debcamp.
