Sorry, I am running 2.6.11 w/ latest deps on RHEL 6.1.

I changed start.sh to include -o nolock in the mount command and it seems 
to work, but now the bomc.error log stated it can't find menu/menu.sh. I 
found that in tc.xcat.zip, is that also supposed to be in the repo 
directory?

This toolscenter image was created on a VM running the same OS and xCAT 
version as the cluster MN. I even configured the site.master as the same 
IP as the cluster. I used to do this all the time to get toolscenter 
images into secure environments (after I d/l the images I put the 
toolscenter directory on a CD and rsync it over to the MN). Lately, I've 
been having problems doing this, both in building the image and in 
netbooting cluster nodes off it.

Subject:        [xcat-user] mktoolscenter results in failed mount attempt



Trying to use a toolscenter netboot image and I see the following in the 
console: 

Kicking off: sh start.sh serial 
mount.nfs: rpc.statd is not running but is required for remote locking 
mount.nfs: Either use '-o nolock' to keep locks local or start statd 
mount.nfs: an incorrect mount option was specified 

After this, the system reboots. 

Looking in start.sh, I can see where it tries to mount the xcat-master, 
but I can't see anything wrong with the command. When nfs tries to come up 
in during boot, I can see in the console where it says there are no NFS 
mounts in fstab so it aborts.
