What level of xCAT are your running. Also what documentation are your following? Checkout man geninitrd if you have not already done so, there are instructions in there for the setup to inject drivers into a Diskfull osimage.

Subject: [xcat-user] geninitd not rebuilding initrd, not injecting
drivers for stateful osimage
Hi all,
I am trying to get some extra network drivers injected into a CentOS 5.4
osimage's initrd.img. I am following the documentation for utilizing
driverupdatesrc to supposedly inject drivers into the initrd.img,
however this is not happening at all with a stateful installation.
During genimage time for a stateless image it works great, but using
geninitrd the initrd is never touched from neither /install path or
/tftpboot/xcat/osimage/<image name> during a "nodeset <node> osimage" or
"geninitrd <image name>" for a stateful image. I am watching timestamps
on the files and have extracted the initrd and modules.cgz to verify the
driver is not getting injected.
Any ideas what I am missing? Here's the osimage configuration for my
stateful image:
[root@master nodes]# lsdef -t osimage v5.4.8-df-compute
Object name: v5.4.8-df-compute
driverupdatesrc=rpm:/install/custom/install/centos/drivers/ixgbe-3.19.1-1.x86_64.rpm
