Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: 3.0.1-4 is a mess Initial Comment: I'm not very fond of 3.0.1-4 right now. RH 7.3 systems. 1. getimage craps out after copying everything over from the golden node when it can't find a file (see the preceding bug.) 2. mkautoinstallscript created a completely useless installation script. How useless you may ask? Well, how about all the mount points were for /dev/sda partitions when the nodes all only have /dev/hda partiitions. The number of partitions wasn't right either. The server does have /dev/sda partitions though, and the broken startup script seems to have matched the boot disk there instead of the golden node. After much monkeying around with the installation script to get it to create and mount the right partitions it finally got to the point where it looked like a copy of the image was loaded on the test node. Except: 3. image installed by systemimager won't boot. It locks at "freeing unused kernel memory" right after doing and EXT3-fs recovery. Hmm, come to think of it, I think that the golden node was all ext2, where id the ext3 come from? Got to check that tomorrow. The golden node has no problems whatsoever booting. I just rebooted it two minutes ago to be sure. The test node is identical hardware to the golden node. Systemimager 3.0.1-4 just does not make a functional copy of the golden node on the target node. No way to tell now if the image is broken or the download is broken, but something is. Boy do I regret "upgrading" to this version!!!

Because of failure 2 I had to hand edit the installation script and didn't get it quite right. After tracking down the last few typo's it is working now and once again images can be installed on the nodes. In case the preceding post wasn't clear on point 2 - the installation script created is a HYBRID. It partitions the node as for the golden node, but then used information from the master node (apparently, hence the /dev/sda devices) for the mkdir and mount commands.
