With "postinstall" you mean "after the rsync parts" - but before the following node boot, right? And just to be sure. The method you describe is _not_ based on the systemimager scripts, but rather on the scripts coming with SALI (masterscript.new and friends?) I am sure we will get back to the actual scripts used, but to get started I need to get the plainer details right first. I have the SystemImager v4.1.6 Manual, but I *really* need some simple explanation on how to go from tehre to SALI. For example, if I recall correctly, I need to modify dhcpd.conf compared to "plain" systemimager to get tftpboot process to do as expected(?) I got the kernel and initrd for x86_64 (sali-x86_64.tar.gz). We run CentOS kernel 2.6.32-220.el6.x86_64, so we should be OK with your udev version etc. Also, can get the svn sources, but it is not clear how much is needed. I know that I am talking about simple stuff here. But for the sake of my sanity I need to get it right. If you provide informatuion, then I shall be happy to assist in actual writing some of the according docs afterwards. <snip> Sorry for all the stupid questions, Bjarne ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Virtualization & Cloud Management Using Capacity Planning Cloud computing makes use of virtualization - but cloud computing also focuses on allowing computing to be delivered as a service. http://www.accelacomm.com/jaw/sfnl/114/51521223/ _______________________________________________ sisuite-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/sisuite-users
