Steve, Sorry, been busy. Yes, I got your contributor agreement, thx. You can now submit code changes. You should work directly with Xu Qing ([email protected]), because he's also been working on ubuntu and debian support for xCAT and you should coordinate your efforts. He can review your submissions and commit them to svn for you. Thx.

So, in response to my missing files issue: # 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 The thing to do is download the debian netboot tarball (available here (http://d-i.debian.org/daily-images/amd64/daily/netboot/), for testing), untar it and copy debian-installer/amd64/initrd.gz and debian-installer/amd64/linux to /opt/xcat/share/xcat/install/debian/debian6.0.6Images/ (where you replace 6.0.6 with your version, obviously) Caveats: One big one: I haven't successfully booted a node using this yet. My hardware falls over on USB discovery. I'm going to try to find some other hardware and give it a shot with that. If that doesn't work, its on to other versions of debian.... Finally - I sent in my contributor agreement yesterday. Should I expect to hear back from someone about it, or is having sent it in sufficient for me to start submitting code changes?
