Hello, Here is a overview of my setup, 5 HP Visualize workstation (all identical), Headnode running RH9.0 with no updates, Using Oscar 4.0.
I get to step 6 with no problems. I am attaching my rpm list file and partitioning scheme to this email. The problem I run into is building the nodes. [1] The nodes boot successfuly from PXE [2] node boots the pxe supplied kernel, loading all the necessary modules [3] Partitions the three SCSI drives according the the partition scheme I specified in image [4] Initially when its starts copying files from headnode, it spits out some error messages about /proc [5] Continues to copy a lot of files from the headnode, then it pauses at exactly /usr/lib/Omni [6] After 10-15 mins (during which the Headnode shows a lot of rsync activity) the node starts to copy files again. THEN IT FAILS :-( error messages on screen look like: stat proc/827/fd: No such file or directory rsyn: recv generator: mkdir "proc/835": No such file or directory (2) I have no idea why it would rsync /proc in the first place. I though /dev and /proc were dynamically generated, then why rsync it? I have been struggling with various issues (all related to unreliable NIC cards in the past) for a very long time. This is the farthest I have gotten. I tried this with FC2 and RH9 and I get the same issue. Also I just noticed that the node froze when I tried to <shift>+<pg up/down> too many times. Any help would be appreciated. Vijay Avarachen
