Does your golden client use the same disk (read the same controller) of your imaged clients? A problem could that the initrd in your image doesn't include the correct module to recognize the disks of your client... in this case you should be able to fix re-creating the initrd of your image using a post-install script (just define a script that runs the mkinitrd command). See /var/lib/systemimager/scripts/post-install/README for post-install script details. -Andrea ------------------------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: The Future of Linux Business White Paper from Novell.
