[Bug 1540522] Re: vfat support broken in initramfs

[Scott Moser]

Hi.
This should be fixed in the latest image maas-images and in the ubuntu archive with 0.122ubuntu3
The maas image is numbered 20160210 that has the fix. https://gist.github.com/smoser/2cec72d243404a72fdb5 will show you what your maas images are:
  maas-dump-image-status my-maas-name | grep xenial
  ubuntu/xenial amd64/hwe-w 20160210 daily True


Deployment of xenial with maas will require a curtin that is >= revision 324.

You can get a trunk version of curtin from the daily ppa at

Title:
  vfat support broken in initramfs

Status in MAAS:
  Invalid
Status in maas-images:
  Fix Released
Status in initramfs-tools package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  when it try to mount the fat32 for the efi it failed with the
  following error : [  117.627721] FAT-fs (sda1): IO charset iso8859-1
  not found

  
  which is due to the missing module : nls_iso8859_1

  workaround is : to apt-get install linux-generic
  than the module is properly loaded.

  here's the error that I've seen in the boot.log : 
   can't create directory '/root/lib/modules': Read-only file system
