Hi,

I found the partion was not correct in the target node, because /dev/sda1 is not a PPC PReP Boot.
so I changed the /etc/systemimager/autoinstallscript.conf file like this:

<part num="1" size="7.813" p_type="primary" p_name="-" flags="PREP" />
<part num="2" size="125.508" p_type="primary" p_name="-" flags="-" />
<part num="3" size="33549.807" p_type="primary" p_name="-" flags="-" />
<part num="4" size="*" p_type="extended" p_name="-" flags="-" />
<part num="5" size="*" p_type="logical" p_name="-" flags="swap" />

then the systemconfigurator can create the partion correctly, "fdisk -l" on the target node is:

/scripts/pre-install # fdisk -l
ioctl32(fdisk:10525): Unknown cmd fd(5) cmd(40081272){00} arg(ffffe778) on /dev/sda

Disk /dev/sda: 36.4 GB, 36401479680 bytes
128 heads, 32 sectors/track, 17357 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 4096 * 512 = 2097152 bytes

Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 1 4 8001 41 PPC PReP Boot
Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary.(I do not know this is why)
/dev/sda2 4 64 122164 83 Linux
Partition 2 does not end on cylinder boundary.
/dev/sda3 64 16062 32763483+ 83 Linux
Partition 3 does not end on cylinder boundary.
/dev/sda4 16062 17358 2654640 5 Extended
Partition 4 does not end on cylinder boundary.
/dev/sda5 16062 17358 2654639+ 82 Linux swap

by this, I only can create this boot partion, but I still can not resolve the problem of "no Yaboot",
could you give me any suggestions? thank you very much.

ps: I think the "systemconfigurator" may be helpful to this problem, for there is some pm files about "Boot" and "Yaboot",
but I did not find any materials about this component except the man page, and I do not know which is the right interface or option.

Hi, Andrea:

I have ran into another error afer rsync is finished. such as

Error: None of the following bootloaders were successfully setup on your system:

write_variables

I have no idea about it:(
but actually I found the yaboot at /a/usr/lib/yaboot/yaboot, this directory is different from the yaboot.conf(it is /usr/lib/yaboot/yaboot)
I just guess the reason may be not execute chroot or something else, but just guess.
