Hey Gregory:
Actually I think I know
what's wrong... the 3.6.3 RPMs I gave you does not create the cciss
devices in /dev. You'll need to create it manually by using mknod (or you
can use MAKEDEV if you know how to use it). Google the syntax to create
the special device and add it to your autoinstall script. Put it before
"Stop RAID devices before partitioning begins". For instance, I want to
create 2 sda partitions, I add the following to my autoinstall script:
# Manually create sda partitions
mknod /dev/sda5 b 8 5
mknod /dev/sda6 b 8 6
# Manually create sda partitions
mknod /dev/sda5 b 8 5
mknod /dev/sda6 b 8 6
We're looking for a good
solution to fix this, and it will be included in the release version of
SystemImager 3.6.3.
Cheers,
Bernard

It's with the 3.6.3
you suggest to use in my last question.
The problematic script is the one
trying to discover drives. It detect
correctly the raid hardware ccssi, but
it doesn't use the correct
names. I also try to describes my partition
using
/dev/discs/disc0/partX but it doesn't work
either.
