root@olaxpf-clz02:/root# cat DRBL-BUG-RPT-20100107-2141.txt To report the bug, fill the contents in the following table, then send it to DRBL mailing list or post it on the DRBL forum." -------CUT BEGIN HERE-------------------------------------------- Description of problem: I have a server running karmic koala and have installed clonezilla server on it. I used the same configuration that I would use on any other ubuntu OS but for some reason it's boot process hangs every time at "Let original init take over". If I add a -v option to the exec command that executes init.orig it outputs a bunch of information about commands starting and exiting normally. How reproducible: Every boot. Either with the testing branch or the unstable branch. Steps to Reproduce: Setup the server using the following settings then pxe-boot to clonezilla: *Note this is relatively customized for Garmin use. 1. Setup base machine with with a similar scheme to the following: a. Raid 0 (or if you have enough space Raid 0+1) b. /dev/sda1 as /boot directly on hard drive (before software raid) c. LVM on top of raid with following setup (vg = osvg): i. root_lv = 4096 MB (/ mounted to this) ii. swap_lv = <equivalent to amount of physical memory> iii. srv_lv = <rest of free space; should be greater than 100 GB> (/srv mounted on this) d. Be sure to install openssh server, print server, mail server, and web server 2. Make sure that you have two network cards in the machine during the duration of the install 3. Set the primary network card to static ip via /etc/network/interfaces 4. mkdir /srv/images 5. wget -q http://drbl.sourceforge.net/GPG-KEY-DRBL -O- | sudo apt-key add - 6. add the following to /etc/apt/sources.list: a. deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu hardy main restricted universe multiverse # (Or any Ubuntu mirror site near you) b. deb http://drbl.sourceforge.net/drbl-core drbl stable testing 7. apt-get update; apt-get upgrade 8. reboot 9. apt-get install drbl 10. edit /opt/drbl/sbin/mknic-nbi and set: a. check_server_name_default = .no. 11. execute /opt/drbl/sbin/drblsrv -i and use the following answers: a. Install netboot install images: No b. Use serial console output: No c. Version of kernel to install: i586 d. Upgrade OS: No 12. edit /etc/init.d/dhcp3-server and add at top of file: a. exit 0 13. run /opt/drbl/sbin/drblpush -i and use following selections: a. DNS domain: garmin.com b. NIS/YP domain: clonezilla c. Client hostname: <local machine's hostname> d. Ethernet port for internet: <use port that is set up with the static ip (this is the port that will stay connected to the computer and act as primary ethernet port)> e. Collect clients: No f. Offer same ip: No g. Initial number in ip range: 1 h. Total number of clients: 1 i. Set ip range: Y j. Diskless linux services: drbl ssi mode k. Clonezilla mode : clonezilla box mode l. Directory to save images to : /srv/images m. Use client.s local hard drive: No n. Mode to use at boot: text o. Set root password: ************ p. Set pxelinux password: ************ q. Use graphical background for pxe menu: Yes r. Share hardware with the clients: No s. Use public IP with the clients: No t. Run in terminal mode: No u. Use NAT server: No v. Continue: Yes 14. Edit /etc/exports and do the following: a. Write down the ip address listed in the file b. Replace the ip address with a .*. 15. Execute exportfs .a 16. grep -r .<first three octets of ip address you wrote down>. /tftpboot/node_root/etc a. Change all mentions of the ip address you wrote down to the static ip of the machine 17. mkdir /tftpboot/node_root/drbl_ssi/temp; cd /tftpboot/node_root/drbl_ssi/temp; tar -xzvf ../template_etc.tgz 18. grep -r .<first three octets of ip address you wrote down>. /tftpboot/node_root/drbl_ssi/temp/etc a. Change all mentions of the ip address you wrote down to the static ip of the machine b. in etc/fstab uncomment the mount for node_root and comment the three lines referring to nodes/<ip addr> 19. create and edit /tftpboot/node_root/drbl_ssi/temp/etc/rc1.d/S18czclient and insert the following with rwx permissions: a. #!/bin/bash for i in 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8; do if (( `ls /srv/images 2>/dev/null | wc -l` > 0 )) then i=100 break fi echo $i sleep 1 done /srv/images/.cz_scripting/cz_client.pl 20. cp /tftpboot/node_root/drbl_ssi/temp/etc/rc1.d/S18czclient /tftpboot/node_root/etc/rc1.d/; tar -czvf template_etc.tgz etc; cd /tftpboot/node_root/drbl_ssi/; mv /tftpboot/node_root/drbl_ssi/temp/template_etc.tgz /tftpboot/node_root/drbl_ssi/ 21. mkdir /home/initrd_work; cp /tftpboot/nbi_img/<initrd file linked to by initrd-pxe.img> /home/initrd_work; cd /home/initrd_work; mv <initrd file linked to by initrd-pxe.img> initrd.img.gz; gzip -d initrd.img.gz; cpio -i --no-absolute-filenames < initrd.img; rm -rf initrd.img 22. Edit /home/initrd_work/bin/udhcpc-post a. Change [ -n "$rootpath" ] || rootpath="$siaddr:/tftpboot/$clientdir" to [ -n "$rootpath" ] || rootpath="<static ip address of server>:/tftpboot/$clientdir" 23. cp /tftpboot/nbi_img/<initrd file linked to by initrd-pxe.img> /tftpboot/nbi_img/<initrd file linked to by initrd-pxe.img>.old; cd /home/initrd_work; find . | cpio -o -H newc > ../initrd.img; cd ..; gzip -c initrd.img > initrd.img.gz; mv initrd.img.gz /tftpboot/nbi_img/<initrd file linked to by initrd-pxe.img> 24. edit /tftpboot/nbi_img/pxelinux.cfg/default and add: a. <static ip address of server>:: in front of vesamenu.c32, drblwp.png, all initrd*.img files, and all vmlinuz-pxe files b. Enable clonezilla entry and disable drbl entry by commenting and uncommenting .MENU HIDE. c. Add .clientdir=node_root. at end of clonezilla append line 25. edit /tftpboot/node_root/sbin/init and comment out section entitled .Use gateway as NFS. 26. create file in /etc/firewall.d/30tftp.sh and put the following line in it: a. iptables -A INPUT -p udp --dport 69 -j ACCEPT 27. Remove second network card -- not needed any more 28. Add server entries to pxe menus and test server out Actual results: The boot process hangs every time at "Let original init take over". Expected results: Boot should complete and just before it runs the clonezilla ocs scripts, it should run /srv/images/.cz_scripts/cz_client.pl which sets up the imaging environment for imaging at Garmin.
