Hey there:

I remembered why systemimager is having this problem.  Basically it has 
to do with the hosts file, well, the file that is in:

/var/lib/systemimager/scripts

you want to make sure that the hosts file only has ONE entry of the node
you are trying to image, having multiple entries (i.e. 2 lines), will 
give you the result you have encountered.

You might also want to double check the /etc/hosts file is the same as
well.

Hopefully this will solve your problem.

Cheers,

Bernard
