Hi all,
In the following I'm using systemimager version 3.8.1 with
systemconfigurator 2.2.9. The machines in question are built from
commodity components and have 2 dual-core opterons and serial ATA hard
drives. The golden client hardware is identical to all clients.
The golden client is running CentOS3, and I'm trying to apply the image
I've taken to the rest of the clients. The standard kernel doesn't work
(it can't recognize the hard drive), but UYOK seems to work fine.
I'm having a problem with these labels that are applied to the / and
/boot partitions. systemconfigurator bombs out because of something
related to this (full verbose output from systemconfigurator is shown
below). Here is the contents of autoinstallscript.conf:
<config>
<disk dev="/dev/sda" label_type="msdos" unit_of_measurement="MB">
<!--
This disk's output was brought to you by the partition tool "sfdisk",
and by the numbers 4 and 5 and the letter Q.
-->
<part num="1" size="101" p_type="primary" p_name="-"
flags="boot" />
<part num="2" size="76435" p_type="primary" p_name="-"

<part num="3" size="*" p_type="primary" p_name="-" flags="-" />
</disk>

</config>
I ran into this same problem with nodes that use IDE hard drives. I got
around it by editing the autoinstallscript.conf to remove the
"mount_dev" entries completely. I then remade the autoinstall script
and edited grub.conf to replace "root=LABEL=/" with "root=/dev/hda2",
and the imaging process worked correctly, no problems. I tried the same
thing with the nodes in question (with the serial ATA hard drives),
except by using /dev/sda2 in grub.conf. The imaging works, and the
nodes reboot, but the kernel quickly kernel panics after starting to
boot, because it cannot find the root partition. Any suggestions would
be greatly appreciated. Thanks for reading this!
Best,
Andrew
