Hello Jamie,

   What you described sounds exactly like what I am seeing on two fresh 
new and different environments (even different hardware) here.
Looks to me the xCATd server never answers with a "ready" to the 
updateflag.awk call, causing the updating AWK to loop forever.

A colleague found a workaround from this same mailing list: he altered 
the postscripts calling updateflag.awk, commenting the call to it and 
inserting instead a `ssh $MASTER "nodeset $NODE boot"` to prevent the 
node from installing forever. He needed also to fix ssh keys for root in 
the installing node so that passwordless access to $MASTER is available.

To recap my previous posts: mine is a diskfull installation and I see no 
errors being logged anywhere on the node I am installing.
Still digging this out as I am concerned about yet unseen problems that 
might be haunting me in the future if I don't understand what's going on :-)


Ciao,
Dario
