 I've been beating my head against this for a couple of days.  I am
 trying to PXE boot a bare metal server to grab a newly created image. 
 I've tried both the standard kernel and the UYOK with and without the
 --my-modules switch.  I have also used systemimager 3.8.1 and 3.9.0.  It
 looks like it is trying to find sdb and failing.  This has two mirrored
 drives and should be presented as sda.  For some reason it's still
 having problems with partioning the drive here is the error message. 
 Any help would be appreciated

If the disks are mirrored in hardware and presented to the OS as /dev/sda, then
you shouldn't care about /dev/sdb. You should fix it into your
autoinstallscript.conf
(/var/lib/systemimager/images/your_image/etc/systemimager/autoinstallscript.conf),
removing the sdb entry and references and re-create your autoinstall script
running si_mkautoinstallscript.

Probably sdb is in the autoinstallscript.conf because your golden client sees 2
different disks...

 What is the correct way of handling /var/lib/nfs/* with systemimager on 
 CentOS5?
 

You could use the file /etc/systemimager/getimage.exclude, uncommenting the
/var/lib/nfs/* entry, but this file has been introduced in 3.9.0. I think we
should backport the patch, so that it'll be available in the next stable 
release.

An ugly workaround in 3.8.1 is to uncomment it directly in 
/usr/sbin/si_getimage.

Thanks, just to be precise -  in systemimager 3.8.1
- I had to comment OUT the line containing /var/lib/nfs/* in the 
/usr/sbin/si_getimage file.

Regards,

Marcin
