Karen,

The first things we need to know is what version of system imager are
you using and if you are imaging them with x86_64 RHEL3u? or i386
RHEL3u?.  You have choosen a difficult machine to use as your first
image but it is definitely possible to set it up.  I am currently
imaging about 10-20 a week.  If you are using SI 3.2.3 and you are
installing i386 I can send you a kernel to use on your boot floppy.  If
you are using SI 3.2.3 and you are installing x86_64, I can send you a
boot kernel which will work but will have to be setup in a tftp server
as it will not fit on a floppy.

If you are not using SI 3.2.3 I am not sure if my kernels will work for
you.

Please let me know and I will send you what I can to help out as this
took me forever to get working correctly the first time.

Bryan

Subject: [Sisuite-users] Help with Systemimager


Hello:

I'm pretty new to Linux. I figured I would seek your help by sending
this email.I'm trying to image RedHat WS release 3. The Dell systems I
have are Precision Workstation 370s with SATA hard drives.

I retrieved my image from my golden Linux client to my image server. Now
I would like to autoinstall my image to 20 machines. Which it the best
method to use to autoinstall my image? I wanted to boot the systems from
their own hard drive, but I am using grub instead of lilo and I could
not locate the "updateclient" script.  Also, I did not see
si_mkautoinstalldiskette or si_mkautoinstallcd in /usr/sbin, nor was I
able to find "updateclient" using the find command on my image server.
Appears I only have the si_mkautoinstallscript. Am I missing something?

Thanks,
Karen
