[Sisuite-users] Partitioning Problem

[B. Erdelyi]

Hi,   I believe I sent this message to the wrong list originally, so I am reposting it.   Thanks to Bernard Li we got over the first problem we had, which was solved by using SI 3.6.3 instead of 3.6.2.  Now we are facing a new problem.   The target client is booted from an autoinstall CD flavor=standard.  The connection to the image server is good, scripts are downloaded, but then it fails to complete after enumerating the disks.  The following error occurs:   Enumerated disks cciss/c0d0 DISKS=1   Partitioning /dev/cciss/c0d0 ….. Old partition table for /dev/cciss/c0d0: Error: Could not stat device /dev/cciss/c0d0 – No such file or directory. Parted –s -- /dev/cciss/c0d0 mklabel msdos || shellout Error: Could not stat device /dev/cciss/c0d0 – No such file or directory.   Killling off running processes.   Cciss/c0d0 are two 73G disks on a hardware RAID 0 combined into a logical drive.  The golden client is setup with identical hardware are logical partitions.   dev/cciss/c0d0p1 /boot dev/cciss/c0d0p2 / dev/cciss/c0d0p3 swap   It seems to me that it is not loading the scsi driver, therefore I tried to modprobe scsi in the master script; this failed miserably.   Then I tried modprobe scsi_mod, which does not fail, but it does not help either.   Any specific suggestions?  Hope I do not have to create a new Linux image and all that work to include scsi drivers in the kernel.  Not very inclined to do all that at the moment.  I was hoping for a quick imaging solution with SystemImager.  The source (golden) and target machines are identical HP DL360G4 machines, same hardrives, scsi controllers, memory, etc. We expected it to image easily.   Thanks for any help.   Bela
