Hi all,

I'm trying to use SystemImager 4.1.99 (the SVN copy that Bernard 
currently has in his folder) to deploy a Fedora 15 beta golden client to 
a node. The following packages are installed on the golden client:

perl-AppConfig-1.66-10.fc15.noarch
systemconfigurator-2.2.11-1.noarch
systemimager-common-4.1.99.svn4556_bli-1.noarch
systemimager-client-4.1.99.svn4556_bli-1.noarch
systemimager-x86_64initrd_template-4.1.99.svn4556_bli-1.noarch

and the following packages are installed on the image server, running 
Fedora 14:

perl-AppConfig-1.66-8.fc14.noarch
systemconfigurator-2.2.11-1.noarch
systemimager-common-4.1.99.svn4556_bli-1.noarch
systemimager-server-4.1.99.svn4556_bli-1.noarch
systemimager-x86_64boot-standard-4.1.99.svn4556_bli-1.noarch

The image server, the golden client and the node are all running the 
same spec, which is a fairly modern SuperMicro 2U server with Intel Xeon 
E5620, 8 gigs of RAM, 1TB HDD and a network interface that uses the 
e1000e driver (which is why I couldn't use the SystemImager 4.0.2 
distribution, as that version of BOEL doesn't have the e1000e module 
built into the kernel). The golden client kernel version is

2.6.38.6-27.fc15.x86_64

I've gotten netboot setup to use the standard (BOEL) install 
environment. Installation proceeds normally, partitions the HDD, grabs 
files through rsync then halts here:

mount /dev /a/dev -o bind || shellout
Using pci-automod to generate hardware.lst (this may take a long time): done
sort: standard output: Invalid argument
Detecting systemconfigurator:
---
FATAL: kernel too old
WARNING: systemconfigurator was not found in the image fedora15
---
FATAL: kernel too old
Killing off running processes.

write_variables
(then the standard "installation failed" message.)

I cannot use UYOK for some reason as it fails to detect /proc (emits a 
"cannot copy /proc/mounts -- is /proc mounted?" message then dies).

Is there anything I overlooked?

Thanks!
