I'm trying to get systemimager-3.2.3 to install a nocona cluster and am 
having some problems.

I mode some minor changes to the tar distribution

/initrd_source/make.d/busybox.rul

changed 


BUSYBOX_URL = http://www.busybox.net/downloads/$(BUSYBOX_TARBALL)

to 

BUSYBOX_URL = http://www.busybox.net/downloads/legacy/$(BUSYBOX_TARBALL)


in the Makefile i added

BUILD_ARCH = x86_64

and changed the libnss section to

cp -a /lib/libnss_dns-2.3.2.so $(BOEL_BINARIES_DIR)/lib/libnss_dns.so.1
cp -a /lib/libnss1_dns-2.3.2.so $(BOEL_BINARIES_DIR)/lib/libnss1_dns.so.1


'make all' works and 'make install_binaries' creates a new kernel and 
initrd.img.

when i boot a client it gets as far as loading the kernel and freezes 
with: Kernel Panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs.

if i use the standard kernel and initrd image without the above changes 
the rsync finishes and the install exits during the chroot /a/ 
systemconfigurator.  

The standard kernel is x86 and the installed system is x86_64.  I believe 
this is why the chroot fails.  I have not been able to figure out why the 
x86_64 kernel cant find the root filesystem.  

I would appreciate any suggestions on how I can trouble shoot this.
