Ole: I have used systemimager 3.6.3 to image some of our IBM e326m nodes here and I used the funtionality of the UYOK stuff to boot with the kernel already being used on the systems to boot to the systemimager install. Once you pull the image in /var/lib/systemimager/images/YOUR_IMAGE_NAME/etc/systemimager/boot/ there will be a kernel and a initrd.img file that should do the trick. On your imageserver use the si_mkbootserver command to properly set these up to be booted with. A command line sequence like:
si_mkbootserver --interface=eth2 --kernel=PATH_TO_KERNEL_FILE/kernel --initrd=/PATH_TO_INITRD_FILE/initrd.img --tftpdir=/tftpboot --pxelinux=/usr/share/syslinux/pxelinux.0 --localdhcp=y is the syntax that worked for me. -----Original Message----- >From: Bernard Li <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Sent: Apr 20, 2006 6:21 PM >To: [email protected] >Subject: RE: [Sisuite-users] Is there a SystemImager kernel for x86_64 >containing Broadcom drivers ? > >Hi Ole: > >Have you been able to get your server imaged using SystemImager trunk? >I just checked into trunk support for the IBM e326 which may be similar >to what you have.
