Brian: What version of systemimager are you using to do your testing? I am looking on the source forge files area and everything there is very old. Is there some place where you are storing newer versions? I will try the patch you sent though and see if applies cleanly to the bits I have installed. -- Steve

Thanks for the good information, Steven. It looks like Yann Aubert may have fixed the parsing issue. I checked out his repo, and see this in his commit log: ┌─[bfinley@bob] ~/src/systemimager.Yann_Aubert/branches/4.2.x/ └─[$] svn log ------------------------------------------------------------------------ r4 | aubert | 2011-12-08 07:36:16 -0600 (Thu, 08 Dec 2011) | 2 lines -> Fix pvdisplay parsing when column appears in device name ------------------------------------------------------------------------ r3 | aubert | 2011-12-07 11:58:21 -0600 (Wed, 07 Dec 2011) | 2 lines fix interface discovery problem when compiling with linux 3.0 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ r2 | aubert | 2011-12-01 11:37:38 -0600 (Thu, 01 Dec 2011) | 2 lines Debian packages can be generated again ------------------------------------------------------------------------ r1 | aubert | 2011-11-30 11:27:04 -0600 (Wed, 30 Nov 2011) | 2 lines Importé de svn.systemiager.org ┌─[bfinley@bob] ~/src/systemimager.Yann_Aubert/branches/4.2.x/ └─[$] svn diff -r PREV Index: lib/SystemImager/Common.pm =================================================================== --- lib/SystemImager/Common.pm (revision 3) +++ lib/SystemImager/Common.pm (working copy) @@ -1062,11 +1062,12 @@ $part = $disk . $minor; } # Get physical volume information -AR- - my $cmd = "pvdisplay -c /dev/$part 2>/dev/null"; + my $cmd = "pvs --noheadings -o vg_name /dev/$part 2>/dev/null"; open (PV_INFO, "$cmd|"); unless (eof(PV_INFO)) { - my @pv_data = split(/:/, <PV_INFO>); - my $vg_name = $pv_data[1]; + my $vg_name = <PV_INFO>; + chomp ($vg_name); + $vg_name = substr ($vg_name, 2); # This partition will become part to the volume group $vg_name -AR- print DISK_FILE qq( lvm_group="$vg_name"); } Hope that helps in the mean time. You can give it a try by applying the attached patch to your installed system... As for the kernel, si_prepareclient completed successfully for me on Quantal. It's one release newer than what you were using, but I have no reason to expect it to not work with that kernel either. ┌─[bfinley@bob] ~/src/systemimager/ master ⚡ └─[$] lsb_release -a No LSB modules are available.
