Jing,
You're perfectly right, the ext4 problem was related to default initrd. The
build did not enable the ext4 module. It's fixed in last build.
Cheers,
Olivier.

Thx for the reply.
When I used your build with 4.2.0-0.9svn4568, I did not run into this problem,
so I'm thinking maybe this is not a missing module problem?
When you said 4.2.0-0.91svn4568 fixed the ext4 missing problem, did you mean
the default initrd? because it seems 4.2.0-0.9svn4568 worked fine for me
without the ext4 issue.
Yes, I did not use the systemimager default kernel and initrd, instead, I'm
using my own kernel/initrd got from my golder client, it's rhel6.3, so I think
it should work fine, right?

RE : [Sisuite-devel] New systemimager rpms for centos6 with ext4 support
This means that your disk is not recognized.
Did you use my install scripts (especially the pre-install).
http://olivier.lahaye1.free.fr/RPMS/extra/si_scripts.tar.bz2
It modprobs some modules in order to see disks. I don't know my the
systemimager initrd fails to automaticaly do that (did not have time to look at
the problem).
if you did use the script, it means that you need to modify it to have more
modules inserted. Or, if your hardware is too recent (not supported by provided
default kernel), then you'll need to use your own kernel for the moment.
I cannot upgrade easily the kernel to 3.X as it'll require to upgrade some
utils too and therefore, it'll break build on RHEL6 as well. Indeed, the build
will copy missing stuffs from /lib /lib64 and other places and thoses version
are for a 2.6.x kernel, not a 3.X kernel.
This is also the reason why build fails on CentOS5 cas the libs copied from
system misses some symbols (too old).
In order to safely upgrade systemimager to latest kernel, we need to modifiy
the build process so it builds everything and link everything with it's
material which is not fully the case for now. (it still copy stuffs from the
build system root tree (convenient ugly dirty hack)).
Hope this helps,
Cheers,
Olivier.

Hi,
I just tested these new rpms, but found the issues below, the install broken.
Dec 17 14:42:36 x3550m4n02 logger: logger: parted -s -- /dev/sda mklabel gpt ||
shellout
Dec 17 14:42:36 x3550m4n02 kernel: sda: unknown partition table
Thx.

[Sisuite-devel] New systemimager rpms for centos6 with ext4 support
Dear all,
Here are my fixed systemimager rpms for centos-6.3
Now, the ext4 filesystem is fixed (the module was missing in the initrd image)
I've tested this on recent hardware and it worked like a charm.
Thoses RPMS are for testing purpose
RPMS: http://olivier.lahaye1.free.fr/RPMS/noarch
SRPMS:
http://olivier.lahaye1.free.fr/SRPMS/systemimager-4.2.0-0.91svn4568.el6.src.rpm
PS: Keep in mind that you need postinstall scripts (already posted here) to
setup grub, network and other stuffs as systemconfiguratior is unable to handle
latest linux technologies.
Best regards,
Olivier
