I grabbed the noarch rpm and when I tried to do a client installation
with SystemImager I got an error 'chroot: cannot execute
systemconfigurator: exec format error', so I figured I'd need to rebuild
SC from src, so I installed the src rpm and tried to build it and got a
bunch of uninitialized variables - at the very least these should be
trapped/handled correctly. Next I tried to build from the tarball and
got the same thing when I did the 'make test'. Here's a start of what I
saw...
t/boot_grub................ok 1/10Probing devices to guess BIOS drives.
This may take a long time.
Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at
/tmp/systemconfigurator-2.2.9/blib/lib/Boot/Grub.pm
line 245.
Use of uninitialized value in substitution (s///) at
/tmp/systemconfigurator-2.2.9/blib/lib/Boot/Grub.pm line
24 9.
[... and a whole lot more of them...]
This sure feels like the same old problem of grub not being able to deal
correctly with cciss devices. The good news is it feels like it might
be able to do all the test/debug independent of SystemImager which would
certainly make the process go more quickly/painlessly. However, I also
thought we were past this? I should mention this is a sles10/u1 system
but don't see why that should make a difference, but maybe it does.
Wait - I just had a brainstorm (they actually occur occasionally). I
just took a look at grub on the sles box and it's version 0.97. The
version on the redhat image I was able to successfully install at one
time is 0.95. Maybe I'll try to downgrad grub and see what happens.
Stay tuned...
