Hi Erich, I tested the new systemconfigurator and kexec stuff with suse 10.0, but I've found a couple of problems. First issue is that I have to manually create the file /etc/systemconfig/systemconfig.conf in my image, I'm not using the OSCAR-way to create images (via systeminstaller), I'm just using the "standard" way of using systemimager, cloning the image from a golden client. But this is not a critical problem, I'm trying to write a simple UYOK-based script to automatically generate the file with the appropriate kernel, initrd and append string. This script will be used by si_prepareclient. Anyway here is my systemconfig.conf file: ----------------------------- [BOOT] ROOTDEV = /dev/systemvg/rootlv BOOTDEV = /dev/hda DEFAULTBOOT = linux [KERNEL0] LABEL = linux PATH = /boot/vmlinuz INITRD = /boot/initrd ----------------------------- The SC problem is that it's not able to detect the correct initrd to use for the reboot (via scconf-bootinfo). It says: /boot/sc-initrd-2.6.13-15-default.gz but that's wrong. Do you know how to fix this? Another issue is that systemconfigurator seems to be more slow now, respect to the versions before r666 (trunk). Where's the bottleneck? do you have an idea?
