I finally got a diskless machine to boot from a stateless server!
There are a lot of "can't do that on a read-only filesystem" messages,
at boot, and I can't login, there must be something I'm missing.
Where exactly is it breaking?
Are you sure the snapshot process completed correctly, that the
readonly-root package is installed on the snapshot etc.?
Is there a "post-image-installation" document describing
how to overcome
these problems? Also, I had to figure out how to use the
"stateless-servers" command to add the nfs/rsync paths before the cron
job would work that configured the client pxelinux files under
/tftpboot. I may have overlooked it somehow, but shouldn't that be in
the tutorial?
Ah, yes that should be in the tutorial. Patches for the tutorial are
very, very welcome :-)
Cheers,
Mark.
