I made the following adjustments to get this working. Bernard Li was
very helpful in guiding me.

1. before running ./install_cluster:

* upgrade all systemimager RPMs to 3.4.1 by copying them to
/opt/oscar/packages/sis/RPMS. Note that this currently only seems to be
ready for i386, as I didn't find a 3.4.1 RPM for
systemimager-ia64boot-standard.

* edit line 343 of /opt/oscar/scripts/install_server. the file to
execute should be changed to /usr/sbin/si_mkrsyncd_conf:

2. before creating the client image:

* edit line 350 of /usr/lib/systeminstaller/SystemInstaller/Tk/Image.pm.
it should use si_mkautoinstallscript instead of mkautoinstallscript.

3. before booting the clients:

* substitute this kernel for the one in the /tftpboot directory:

http://world.anarchy.com/~peter/systemimager/kernel

* make sure you have a good modprobe.conf for your clients in
/var/lib/systemimager/images/oscarimage/etc/. in my case, because my
head node hardware is identitcal to the clients, I just did this:

cp /etc/modprobe.conf /var/lib/systemimager/images/oscarimage/etc/

Hopefully I remembered all the steps!
