At Brian's prompting, I used si_prepareclient on my image server to
generate a kernel/initrd.img pair (via UYOK) in hopes of supporting this
new hardware I have.

I was able to successfully boot the kernel/initrd.img with the hardware
supported (the distro supported it, but 2.6.12.2 stock kernel did not).

I encounter 2 issues:

1) My image server has only 2 partitions, and on the node I am planning
to image, it has 6 so I had to manually run 'mknod /dev/sda$i b 8 $i'
2) I got the following error message:

parted -s -- /dev/sda mklabel msdos || shellout
Warning: Partition(s) on /dev/sda are being used.

I got around this by manually running 'dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda
count=2' and rebooting.

Does anybody know what's going on?

Cheers,

Bernard
