NAME
fai-cd - make a bootable CD-ROM or USB stick that performs an FAISYNOPSIS
fai-cd [OPTION] -m MIRROR FILEfai-cd [OPTION] -m MIRROR -u DIRECTORY
fai-cd [OPTION] -B FILE
DESCRIPTION
This command creates a bootable ISO CD-ROM image that performs the fully automatic installation from CD-ROM without an install server. The ISO image will be written to FILE. To create the image, the command needs the NFSROOT, the configuration space and a partial mirror, which is created by fai-mirror. The command can also copy all needed data to DIRECTORY on a mounted USB stick.OPTIONS
- -B
- Create a boot only ISO image which does a network installation. It does not the nfsroot, the partitial mirror and the config space. Unless the option -g is used, /usr/share/fai/menu.lst will be used as boot menu configuration.
- -b
- After creating the ISO image burn it by calling cdrecord(1).
- -C CFDIR
- Use CFDIR as the configuration directory. Default is /etc/fai. You can also set the environment variable FAI_ETC_DIR.
- -f
- Force removal of an existing ISO image before creating a new one.
- -g FILE
- Use FILE as grub menu.lst file. The script will looks for FILE in CFDIR. If FILE is located in another directory then a full path must be specified. If not specified, use /etc/fai/menu.lst.
- -h
- Show simple help and version.
- -k
- Keep the temporary filesystem for debugging. The script will sleep for a long time, before continuing the cleanup of temp files and mounts. Beware of killing or suspending the script itself, since a lot of mounts will remain. This is for debugging only!
- -m DIRECTORY
- Use DIRECTORY as partial FAI mirror. This option is mandatory.
- -n
- No ISO image. Do not call mkisofs to create the ISO image. This is for creating the filesystem only. Useful for writing it to a USB stick.
- -u DIRECTORY
- Create a bootable USB stick. The USB stick must be mounted on DIRECTORY before you run fai-cd. Copies all FAI-CD data to DIRECTORY and try to install grub onto its device. Currently the file system on the USB stick must be ext2. USUALLY THIS WILL ERASE ALL DATA ON YOUR USB-STICK!
EXAMPLES
After you've created a mirror with fai-mirror in /media/mirror, you can create a CD using:
# fai-cd -m /media/mirror fai-cd.iso
If you want to create a bootable USB stick, create an ext2 file system on your stick, mount it to /media/usbstick and call
# fai-cd -m /media/mirror -u /media/usbstick
# umount /media/usbstick
