| 11:47 stockholm | is it perhaps even packaged? :-) |
| 11:49 stockholm | oh: (not updated with recent changes in FAI) |

| 15:51 h01ger | stockholm, afaik the recommended way to do lvm with fai is described in the wiki |
| 15:52 h01ger | but when _i_ used lvm in the past year, i set it up with d-i :) (or real manually once) |
| 15:52 h01ger | so i'm not that much of help here |
| 15:54 Mrfai | stockholm: AFAIK sam vilain is doing LVM installation using his modified setup_harddisk script. |
| 15:54 Mrfai | See also: http://faiwiki.informatik.uni-koeln.de/index.php/Source:SW_RAID_LVM |
| 15:56 stockholm | thanks |
| 15:58 h01ger | 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 h01ger | s/=/?/ |
| 16:00 Mrfai | 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 h01ger | so you cant build a fai cd in etch? (i'm asking not to tell other people something wrong) |
| 16:01 h01ger | and i (slowly) resumed working on the new fai cd today ;) |
| 16:01 Mrfai | no you can't. Except if you have a sarge chroot on an etch system. |
| 16:01 h01ger | well :) |
| 16:02 Mrfai | 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 Mrfai | MAybe we can do some work on it during debcamp |
| 16:02 h01ger | why not use casper? |
| 16:03 h01ger | why reinvent the wheel? |
| 16:03 Mrfai | casper is too complicated, that means it's too big. |
| 16:07 h01ger | why do you think its complicated? use live-helper and be happy :) |
| 16:09 Mrfai | 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 Mrfai | Loop mounted files are read-only AFAIK, so you can write to then when put onto a USB stick. |
| 16:10 h01ger | they are not read-only |
| 16:10 h01ger | unionfs takes care of it (or something else, but thats easily possible (and done with live-helper) |
| 16:11 h01ger | what did you consider huge with l-p? the package? the resulting image? |
| 16:11 h01ger | live-helper also supports booting from usb now |
| 16:12 Mrfai | the dependencies on other package. l-p needs packages which I do not like to have on a fai-cd. |
| 16:12 h01ger | l-p doesnt end up on the cd |
| 16:14 Mrfai | I have to leave. Sorry. I hope we can go in more details at debcamp. |

| 16:36 dukez | hi all |
| 16:37 dukez | someone have experience of running dialog script as .source inside the class scripts ? |
| 16:37 dukez | it behave not so cleanly and i want to know if someone knows how to "fix" it in the script ? |
| 16:56 h01ger | dukez, look in fai 2.5.4 in svn |
| 16:56 h01ger | there is an example |
| 16:56 h01ger | iirc in the advanced examples |
| Action: stockholm does not yet understand when he would use lvm... |
| MT (~MT@dove.informatik.tu-muenchen.de) joined #fai. |
| 18:24 stockholm | i guess you need it if partiions fill up? |
| 18:31 h01ger | or to spawn a partition over multiple harddisc |
| 18:31 h01ger | luks-crypto fs also uses lvm |
