Title: Problems with swap in network install

Dear all,

I have set up an image server / golden client system with systemimager, but I have a problem when I want to install the golden clients image via network on another client. It seems that the complete image is loaded to the RAM of the new client and when this is filled I get an out of memory error.

The problem may be that the creation of filesystems on the new client fails. The section where the swap and filesystems should be created in the autoinstallscript is empty. So I attach here the autoinstall.conf file of the affected image and the .master file created by si_mkautoinstallscript.

The version of systemimager I use is 3.6.3

<!--
  This file contains partition information about the disks on your golden
  client.  It is stored here in a generic format that is used by your
  SystemImager server to create an autoinstall script for cloning this
  system.

  You can change the information in this file to affect how your target
  machines are installed.  See "man autoinstallscript.conf" for details.
-->

<config>
  <disk dev="/dev/hda" label_type="msdos" unit_of_measurement="%">
    <!--

      and by the numbers 4 and 5 and the letter Q.

</config>


--> here is the section in the image.master file where the filesystems should be created-


logmsg "Load additional filesystem drivers."
modprobe reiserfs
modprobe ext2
modprobe ext3
modprobe jfs
modprobe xfs

### BEGIN swap and filesystem creation commands ###
### END swap and filesystem creation commands ###

### BEGIN mount proc in image for tools like System Configurator ###
logmsg "mkdir -p /a/proc || shellout"
mkdir -p /a/proc || shellout
logmsg "mount proc /a/proc -t proc -o defaults || shellout"
mount proc /a/proc -t proc -o defaults || shellout
### END mount proc in image for tools like System Configurator ###

if [ ! $kernel = "2.4" ]; then
### BEGIN mount sysfs in image for tools that might be run during chroot ###
logmsg "mkdir -p /a/sys || shellout"
mkdir -p /a/sys || shellout
logmsg "mount sysfs /a/sys -t sysfs -o defaults || shellout"
mount sysfs /a/sys -t sysfs -o defaults || shellout
### END mount sysfs in image for tools that might be run during chroot ###
fi



Additionally the modpropbe commands in the image.master file seem to fail with a relocation error htat the "create_module" command could not be found in libc6.?

 
Any help with this problem will be appreciated gratefully

Thanks Christian Kleegrewe
