Jeremy, This feature is top priority as soon as we wrap up the 3.2 release of SystemImager.
With regard to your driver ordering issue, there was a bug in 3.0.x versions along these lines: the tool that did autodetection sorted modules by name (if I recall). This has been fixed in 3.1.x/3.2. Are you experiencing this with the 3.1.x code that is in the oscar beta? -Brian Thus spake Jeremy Enos ([EMAIL PROTECTED]): > Bef, Dannf- > Any progress on the SI feature to build it's network boot image from the > host system?
