I need reset raid card before installing a system, and all of progress need be automatic.

So I need a pxe environment to boot a livecd. In that, auto-script will reset raid card with different tools installed in livecd.

Further more, a node could response pxe server to change its own grub to install system on own drive. It's ok, but I want to make this progress more simple. I think what I want is just a drive, like /dev/sda. All of data in this drive is in kind of data in livecd, except MBR.

I rsync the file system with its data and fail after reboot. So I'm trying get to know how to set MBR.

You'll need to setup grub to set the mbr.

/sbin/grub2-install /dev/sda

I haven't had the chance to try it yet but it should work fine pending everything being in place within ext3fs.img

    I am also confused about how to use anacoda to install a system to
    hard-disk in a livecd when i do not have a graph user interface.

        I'm still clueless as to what you are doing.  Are you booting
        from live media (CD or USB drive) and using the Anaconda-based
        installer to install?  Why are you rsyncing ext3fs.img?  I
        don't get it.

        Are you trying to write your own installer?

        TYL,
