Hey Mark: Did you ever figure out this issue? I think I'm hitting it on these older Appro Opteron servers. They have no floppies but SystemImager essentially stalls for ~4-5 minutes doing the "I/O error, dev fd0" loop.
This was tested with the latest trunk, so I know it's still not "fixed" :-) Thanks, Bernard > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On > Behalf Of Mark Seger > Sent: Monday, July 24, 2006 9:39 > To: sisuite-devel@lists.sourceforge.net > Subject: [Sisuite-devel] what about systems with no floppy drives? > > There's a section near the beginning of the installation that says > "checking for floppy diskette."
