Nono, I am by no means of "patch"
caliber.
I thought the current release version was 3.4.1
according to the website??

Which version of SystemImager are you using? As far as I
know this functionality already exists in 3.5.3 in the sense that you can
create one image and as long as the hardware are similiar enough, it doesn't
matter whether the device shows up as hda or sda.
Having said that, if
you think you have a patch to offer, by all means submit it to
sisuite-devel.
Cheers,
Bernard

Subject: [Sisuite-users] Regarding
Grub.pm...
Hopefully the answer to this will be
quick for you guys, as I hate to
bother busy open sourcers with silly
support requests. However, the problem
I am running into is as follows: We
install all different linux
distributions (probably 6 or 7) and while the
main system hardware is the
same. The disks may vary between IDE and Serial
ATA. I dont really want to
make 14 different golden client images (7 for
IDE and 7 for SATA) so I am
attempting to make grub.pm a little smarter. I
have already modified the
master script so that it will detect whether its
/dev/hda or /dev/sda, and
everything works absolutely perfectly until it
tries to install grub.
It looks like Grub.pm just
uses the /boot/grub/device.map from the
golden client; which means that if
its an IDE image, it will tell grub to
install the bootloader at /dev/hda.
This works great! however I am wondering
if there is a way to add some
level of detection to Grub.pm that says if [-e
/proc/ide/ide0/hda/model ];
then ...(create a device.map for /dev/hda), else
... (create a device.map
for /dev/sda) fi I am running the latest stable
release of
everything.
Any advice anyone can give me to get this last step done
i'd be greatful.
Thank
you,
-Drew
