Comment:
Obsolete, and wrong.
- <<TableOfContents(3)>>
- FAI (Fully Automatic Installation) Is a large scale deployment solution, basicaly it boots from dhcp+pxe+tftp mounts a nfs root, from where the installation runs. You can use it to install Workstations and servers in your network. This guide tries to explain installation of fai into a Debian Edu network, and example config to install an Thin Client server and Workstations

- Information sources
- * Main page http://wiki.fai-project.org/index.php/Main_Page
- * Quick start guide http://fai-project.org/fai-guide/ar01s02.html
- * partition tool with lvm support [optional] http://wiki.fai-project.org/index.php/Setup-storage

-
- Package sources
- * deb http://layer-acht.org/debian etch fai
-
- == Scope ==
-
- This page describes how to install a Debian Edu workstation or thin-client-server with FAI.
-
- = Installation =
- 1. install main server, or if you wish a dedicated barebone profile
- 1. configure network sources, update, upgrade
- make sure you include `deb http://layer-acht.org/debian etch fai`
- 1. Make sure you cache debian packages to improve speed You can either install a deb proxy server, or tune squid
- * [optionally] installing and configuring appprox,apt-proxy
- * [optionally] tune squid
- * [optionally] install a local debian mirror
- 1. [optionally] to avoid warning grab holgers key
- * gpg --keyserver keyring.debian.org --recv 5072D036AC583520 && gpg --armor --export 5072D036AC583520 | apt-key add -
- 1. make sure you have enough space for /srv (my /srv is 365M at the moment, so create a logical volume with 400MB and mount it as /srv)
- 1. aptitude install fai-doc fai-server syslinux perl-tk libproc-daemon-perl
- 1. verify that you got fai pacakges from holgers repo and not the ones in etch. it should be version 3.2.1, the rest of this text depends on it.
- 1. edit the following in these files. leave the rest at the default.
- * in /etc/fai/fai.conf
- * LOGUSER=fai
- * in /etc/fai/make-fai-nfsroot.conf
- * FAI_DEBOOTSTRAP="etch http://tjener:9999/debian" /!\ example shows a approx server, replace with whatever suites you
- * FAI_ROOTPW=<SOMETHING>
- * in /etc/fai/NFSROOT
- * in the first PACKAGES install part add `debian-edu-archive-keyring`. if you use setup_harddisks_2 also add `libparse-recdescent-perl parted lvm2`
- * in /etc/fai/apt/sources.list use sane sources, consider copying the ones from the faiserver, (Yes you'll need holgers repo here too)
- 1. run `fai-setup -v`
-
- = Configuration =
- == Server ==
- 1. add a service called faiserver
- * bind config, add a CNAME from faiserver to tjener (or staticxx if you have a dedicated) update serial and reload bind.
- 1. Adjust the dhcp configuration
- * edit /etc/dhcp3/dhcp.conf add all your ltspserver hosts (as normally, or as a separate group) You will need.
- * add use-host-decl-names on;
- * add server-name faiserver;
- * add next-server faiserver;
- * add filename "fai/pxelinux.0";
- 1. edit /etc/inetd.conf /!\ this will break a combined server. so use a main-server or a barebone server.
- * point tftp server to /srv/tftp
- * /etc/init.d/openbsd-inetd restart
- 1. use lwat and add all ltspservers you want to install into the ltsp-server-hosts group
- == fai ==
- Everything here are examples, People knowing how to use FAI will cry at the spagetti. And It will most likely not work for your case. you should write your own configurations.

- /!\ A better aproch would be to use the taskinst and install our task, but i can not make it work reliably recomendations are not installed. So i list every package needed. This probably includes noise so it needs cleaning.

- = Installing a fai client =
- 1. fai-chboot -FIv ltpserver[nn], and boot the machine.
-
- == Default boot ==
- to set the default to boot from local harddrive use `fai-chboot -o default`
-
- = lvm =
- LVM is not supported in the current fai packages, youll need to use svn versions, this is a moving target and your milage may vary
- basicaly checkout using `svn co svn://svn.debian.org/fai/people/michael/features/setup_harddisks_2 hd2` put it into /srv/fai/nfsroot/usr/local. You must also make sure you install lvm2 package into your target.
