Hi SIS-folks!

Pulling an image to a new node, using an autoinstall diskette fails at
th end of the 'filler up' (actually it seems all files were transferred)
with the following output on the client:
rsync error: partial transfer (code 23) at main.c (925) 

and on the servers (and dhcp servers) /var/log/messages:

rsync:error transfer interrupted (code 11) at main.c (295).

Hoping that there might afterall not be an error, I attempted to reboot
the client. The only response was: Missing operating system.

The golden client (and server) uses the grub loader.

Hardware (client and golden client):
Dell PE 650, single P4, 38Gb IDE, IntelPro 1000MT server.

Filesystems are ext3.

Versions are:
RH 8.0, kernel 2.4.20-20.8, rsync from RH distribution (clients)
RH ES 2.1 kernel 2.4.9es, rsync from RH distribution (server)
SystemImager 3.0.1-4
SystemInstaller 1.0.1-1
SystemConfigurator 2.0.8-1
SysLinux 2.0.1

Another question: when rsyncing - how excatly do I rsync the files, that
require root privileges? After a few attempts with auth users and
secrets file - which only resulted in the client not being able to
rsync, I took the more robust approach (stricktly not safe of course) to
add read rights to everyone for all files in the image, wherupon rsync
could download everything until it eventually terminated.

Best regards, Jess Michelsen
