Hello List,

Just looking for a sanity check here...

I'm attempting to image Ubuntu 9.04 64-bit clients via PXE and UYOK (and a
Ubuntu 9.04 32-bit image server, but I don't think that matters). PXE boot
is working wonderfully but it appears the imaging master script attempts to
modprobe a non-existent dm-mod (Device Mapper) kernel module.

As I understand it, the dm-mod is non-existent because the 9.04 kernel
release has it compiled in.

On a hunch, I commented out the "modprobe dm-mod" line on the master script
thinking that the kernel would pick up the subsequent call to "pvcreate" in
the section "BEGIN LVM Initialization Commands". However, I get a "can't
find /dev/sda1" error on the pvcreate line even though parted was used to
create /dev/sda1 a few lines earlier in the script.

At this point, I'm thinking the best thing to do is go with the standard
kernel for laying out the disk and just image back the 9.04 kernel as part
of the script. Would this eliminate the error?

My hardware is very vanilla - IBM Blade Server LS20 (LSI Logic hardware RAID
card, Dual Opterons, and Dual Broadcom NICs) - so there shouldn't be any
driver issues.

I would definitely appreciate any comments on this issue.

Thanks,
Phil
