Subject	[Sisuite-users] autoinstall cd fails: Warning: Partition(s) on /dev/hda are being used

Hi, systemimagers I have been using si to install Dell 1750s (rack mount units for our compute farm). I am happy with it. I am now trying to use systemimager to install some linux 2.6 kernel-based desktops (Dell 450 with centos4.2). I am using RPMs from your source forge site on the image server: systemimager-server-3.6.3-1 systemimager-client-3.6.3-1 systemimager-i386boot-standard-3.6.3-1 systemimager-common-3.6.3-1 systemimager-i386initrd_template-3.6.3-1 and on the golden client: systemimager-common-3.6.3-1 systemimager-i386initrd_template-3.6.3-1 systemimager-client-3.6.3-1 here is how I built the golden image: on the client: si_prepareclient --server imageserver on the server: si_getimage -golden-client aclient -image dell_450_CENTOS4_image_v1 here is how I built the autoinstall cd: si_mkautoinstallcd -flavor dell_450_CENTOS4_image_v1 --out-file /tmp/xx.iso --append "ramdisk_size=70000" When I try to boot the cd, it fails due to insufficient ramdisk size so apparently the append option on si_mkautoinstallcd doesn't appear to be working. I then tried to boot the cd and give the following on the boot command line: linux ramdisk_size=70000 IMAGENAME=dell_450_CENTOS4_image_v1 This time, it boots up, finds the master, loads it, runs it but fails as follows: parted -s -- /dev/hda mklabel msdos || shellout Warning: Partitions(s) on /dev/hda are being used. Killing off running processes. etc. Any ideas what the problem is? Should I be using the unstable 3.7.x release? thanks for your assistance and your work on a great product. p ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
