The problem with SystemImager you are discribing sounds sounds like a disagreement in the documentation, not a problem with Oscar itself. The Oscar package (which heavily uses SystemImager as a component) has been tested on RH 8 and 9 and works with them. As I have said previously, I did not use an autoinstall disk when I put my cluster together, I changed the BIOS settings to use network booting instead.

Original Message ----------------------- Mr. Edwards, I read the SystemImager documentation, and it says that it only supports RedHat 7.2. However, OSCAR does not support RedHat 7.2. How do I get around this problem? Also, when I am making my autoinstall boot disk from the wizard, I am using the [Standard] boot flavor. Should I be using a different flavor? If so, which one?
