I'm trying to push an image to both Sun Blades x6220 and Dell Blades m600.
Both of these different architectures have Virtual CD-Roms and Virtual
Floppy drives which are being detected during the install process. The
image was created on a Dell Poweredge 2950 running RedHat Enterprise Linux
4 AS. I enabled UYOK during image creation and the drivers seem to be
loading properly for both brands of hardware.
The failing process seems to be the initial format of the hard disk using
DD.

Error: Error opening /dev/sda: No medium found
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=512 count=1 || shellout

Killing off running processes.
And an excerpt from dmesg shows the detection of the CD-Rom.

I've tried to modify the oscarimage.master script (which is symlinked to
h1.sh) to specify /dev/sdb instead of /dev/sda, but it has no effect.
Dev/sda is still being referenced. I think if I don't use the UYOK kernel
it will use my modified master install script, but then the SAS hard
drives aren't accessible.
So, to summarize, I want to either get SIS to use my edited version of the
installation script and reference /dev/sdb instead of /dev/sda, OR change
the boot image to properly detect the hard drives as /dev/sda instead of
/dev/sdb.
Please help.
