I have never tried Debian. It looks like the nodeset command is handled by
the mkinstall function in debian.pm. It is located
under /opt/xcat/lib/perl/xCAT_plugin directory.

It does.

$ ls /install/debian6.0.6/x86_64/
autorun.inf  firmware     isolinux     README.mirrors.html  tools
css          g2ldr        md5sum.txt   README.mirrors.txt
win32-loader.ini
debian       g2ldr.mbr    pics         README.source
dists        install      pool         README.txt
doc          install.amd  README.html  setup.exe

However, I dont have a /tftpboot/xcat/debian6.0.6 directory.

I can't find a way to get more verbose output or any debug output (for
nodeset).  If you're able to point me in the right direction for some of
that, I may be able to figure this out myself.

Hi,
  Does the copycds command copy the os files under the directory
/install/debian6.0.6/x86_64?

Subject:        [xcat-user] Debian Nodes



Hey all,
   I'm having very little luck finding directions for this online, but
I'd like to use xCat (installed on CentOS) to kickstart some of my nodes
to debian.  I notice that there is a comppute template in
/opt/xcat/share/xcat/install/debian/.  I've downloaded all the debian
stable DVDs and imported them using copycds.  However, when I go to set
a node to do a debian install I get:

# nodeset node001 install=debian6.0.6-x86_64-compute
Error: Install image not found in /install/debian6.0.6/x86_64
Error: Some nodes failed to set up install resources, aborting

I'd appreciate any assistance or a pointer towards any resources that
will help me.

Thanks!
Steve
