I have some problems to access the CVS from here. There are
any snapshot
available? I can do the tests, and see if it running or not.
Most of the changes i have made in 3.5.1 was to support AMD64
architecture. This
version i was changed is the *only one* who compiles and
works fine on AMD64.
I will look for the snapshots of the CVS to start work with it.
Any news, i will post here.

I strongly urge you to try it out and if it still has issues. If it
does, please file a bug and/or email the developers at
sisuite-devel.
Thanks,
Bernard

I don't think what you have done is ugly, if it is working ;-)
I have done a huge hack on sistemimager to make it compile
and work clean on
AMD64. There are some mistakes on the makefiles and i have
modified it to work.
Now, i have an source RPM wich works on all platforms i have.
If theres some interest, i can provide this package. It is
based on 3.5.1.
What concerns me more is some problems introduced on the
latest versions of SI,
like the scripts of the images aren't generated right. Every
time i have to edit
the scripts to fix things like raid partitions.
Other thing is not working is the configuration of grub.

Hello there everyone. I got everything working, but what I
did was an
ugly hack. Let me give some background about what I trying to
accomplish and how I made it work. Then I would love some
suggestions
on a more elegant way of doing this.
I am setting up an IBM BladeCenter. It has 6 HS20 blades,
each SAN
booting from an IBM DS4000 disk array. The blades are all
running RHEL
3 Update 5.
Getting the first blade loaded by hand and making a golden
client from
it was pretty simple. Get the other blades to network boot
via BOEL was
more challenging.
I need to get 3 things added in to BOEL. The Qlogic HBA
driver. The
multipath driver for IBM DS4000, referred to as RDAC. And
the newest
Broadcom NIC driver. Each of these comes as a separate tarball to
compile a binary module. None of them come as kernel patches.
What I ended up doing is as follows.
I compiled all the 3 tarballs and put all the new kernel
module files
into INITRD_SOURCE/MY_MODULES.
I edited INITRD_SOURCE/SKEL/ETC/INIT.D/FUNCTIONS to make
INSMOD calls in
the section hardware autodetect section. I inserted the
Qlogic modules,
the RDAC modules, and various SCSI modules.
I editing INITRD_SOURCE/MY_MODULES/INSMOD_COMMANDS to insert the
Broadcomm NIC module.
I edited PATCHES/LINUX.I386.CONFIG to compile the SCSI SG
driver as a
module, which is required by RDAC and to compile TG3 as a
module rather
then in the kernel directly.
After I did all that, I made and installed the binaries,
and it all
works like a champ.
But I think that hardcoding the various modules is a very
crude of way
doing this.
I would love to talk with someone about what different ways
this might
be done. Then I can see about modifying what ever files
need changing
to implement the more general solution.
Thanks folks, and I look forward to working with everyone
to find and
implement the elegant version of my ugly hack.
