Greetings,

I downloaded oscar 5.1rc1 (straight from sourceforge) and tried an install
on a fresh CentOS 4.6-x86_64 (I need 4.6 for legacy software issues).

I get an error that CentOS is not a supported OS; I tried oscar 5.0 and I
can proceed with oscar install.  I have to use UYOK to get anywhere on the
imaging (I guess because the kernel in systemimager does not recognize my
hardware).

However, then I run into an issue with hard drives on compute nodes.  The
system images, but on system reboot, I get a Kernel panic:
"mount: error 6 mounting ext3"
etc.
kernel panic not syncing: attempted to kill init!

My disk on the compute node has a Fujitsu 73.5 GB SAS 15K rpm drive.

The headnode has RAID; I have no issue separately installing CentOS
4.6-x86_64 on the compute node.

I later tried using the modprobe.conf from a boot off of "linux rescue" from
the cd (at the suggestion of another oscar user list member).

---------begin block quote---------
You'll need to boot the compute node off a rescue CD.  Install CD from
CenOS should work, just type "boot rescue" at the boot prompt instead
of just hitting return.  When it boots you'll need to find the
/etc/modprobe.conf file and copy that to the node's file system,
overrighting the one that is there.

If that works, just use the procedure to replace the default modprobe
found here:
http://svn.oscar.openclustergroup.org/trac/oscar/wiki/TipLDAP

Just ignore the LDAP parts :)

Any ideas?

Thank in advance for the help.
