Hello All, 

New to the group and new to System Imager.  I've been reviewing all
the traffic that Mark S. has generated about using System Imager with
HP Smart Array controllers (In my case a DL380) but am still a tad
confused as to what was the final consensus for making the image work.

At the preset time when I leave the system configurator statements in
place at the end of My_Image.master I receive the following errors:

Probing devices to guess BIOS drives.  This may take a long time.
df: Warning: cannot read table of mounted filesystems

Could not find device for /boot: Not found or not a block device.

Begin reboot me statements.

Reviewing the previous posts leads me to believe that this problem was
identified quite some time ago and that their is a work around out
there someplace.

I have edited the My_Image.master file to dump out before System
Configurator is called, but am not sure how to manually force Grub to
install properly.

A df of the file system run upon dump out shows:
/dev/cciss/disc0/part2     /a
/dev/cciss/disc0/part1     /a/boot
/dev/cciss/disc0/part5     /a/local_data

Which I know should read:
/dev/cciss/c0d0p1          /a
/dev/cciss/c0d0p0          /a/boot
/dev/cciss/c0d0p4          /a/local_data
But I'm not sure how to change either the autoinstallation scripts or
the .master file to reflect the desired /dev/cciss/c0d0pX statements.

Mark's postings talked about producing .diff files for the necessary
changes, however since I was not on the list at the time I can only
review those in RAW format and when I cut and paste those into a .diff
file Patch throws some Hunk errors amd "malformed patch" errors on the
Grub.pm and Label.pm files respectively.  Also I'm not sure how to
patch the grub-install file if that indeed is the problem.
