Title: Re: [Sisuite-users] /sbin/init kernel panic
I would recommend trying a newer version of SystemImager and go from there.
 
If you ask me which version, I tend to say 3.7.3 even though it is a development release.  IMHO it is working pretty well for us.
 
Cheers,
 
Bernard

Subject: Re: [Sisuite-users] /sbin/init kernel panic

Ok thanks for the link.

I do like explain :

I found /etc/systemimager/boot on the golden-client
I copy kernel and initrd.img in /tftpboot on my pxe server
I modify the /tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg :

LABEL systemimager
PROMPT 1
DISPLAY message.txt
TIMEOUT 150
KERNEL kernel
APPEND vga=extended initrd=initrd.img root=/dev/ram ramdisk_size=80000

And now the machine I want to clone, doesn't boot well with pxe.
After loading kernel and initrd.img :
write_variables
/etc/init.d/rcS: 41: cannot create /tmp/variables.txt: Read-only file system
Killing off running processes.

... I really doon't know what to do ;)
