Chris, On my side, i tested the rsync mode again and everything is going smoothly. I guess this is a systemimager issue but i will double check if you can give me more details.
Again, the error messages during the creation of the image are not a big deal and most of them will be fixed in oscar-6.0.3 (i already check-in the fix). About the mysql issue, i should be able to check-in a fix very soon (hopefully today), this will be included in oscar-6.0.3.

At the initial "yum install oscar" stage it properly grabs all five, most-recent oscar packages (and yume). It looked hopeful. I still had to briefly drop back to a shell prompt to manually start mysqld when prompted for a root MySQL password. After this were the usual huge blocks of package names each time it installed one, making for an enormous transcript of the session. Bootstrapping finishes w/o significant error (just as before), oscar_wizard proceeds exactly as before. I get the same "ERROR during execution 512" and (possibly) more importantly, the same complaints about "Impossible to install xxx" for slocate, utempter, (blank - twice), and ia32 RPMS (for some reason), as before (I have more commentary after this exerpt): [cut] ============================================================================= == Running step 4 of the OSCAR wizard: Build OSCAR client image ============================================================================= Writing package group file for client installation: /tmp/oscar_clients.pgroup Writing package group file for client installation: /tmp/oscar_server.pgroup 0: centos-5-x86_64 Selection: centos-5-x86_64 [add_image] Starting...

Since my motherboard does not like ACPI in kernel 2.6.18-anything, and the "sis package" config early in oscar_wizard didn't "take", I had to manually drop back to a shell again and insert "acpi=off" after "APPEND" in /tftpboot/pxelinux.conf/default. Again I specified the "systemimager-multicast" install mode in "Setup Networking" instead of the default "systemimager-rsync"... but after looking promising, the node imaging stops with an error after 12 minutes, during the "Finalizing..." stage; so close. FYI. I'll see if I can more usefully report where systemimager is failing on the node in a subsequent email.

However, it does not prevent the installation of others packages. Chris had issues with other packages, i am currently investigating the problem (but it seems you do not have the problem). Note that this problem was already in 5.1, the only difference is that now, we can catch the errors which was not possible before. I also have a fix, but this based on a modification that can only be included after the release of 6.0.1. About the node issue, my feeling is that there is a de-synchronization between SIS, the OSCAR database and the file system. I am working on the problem but again it will have to wait the release of 6.0.1 before i could check something in. And again, this is not a problem specific to oscar-6.x. If i manage to work on that topic i will let you know, you may be interested in testing the new capability that will deal with that.

The bootstrap is OK, no errors in the process. Therefore, in the build image step, I receive the message in the console: ERROR during execution 512 I'm using the --debug option, but the output is only this line, repeated sometimes. Despite this warning, the wizard says the image was successfully builded. But, at the clients installation I receive the error in the client prompt: rsync link_stat /oscarnode1 no such file or directory (2) And the installation fails. I'm not sure if this errors are related. I don't know to fix this problem, because I never seen this before.
