Kickstart on Red Hat Advanced Server 2.1 Ok, I'm stuck a bit here. So, I got my kickstart working beautifully on 2u rack machine that we have. I migrated it over to a 5u rack machine we have with similar (but no identical) hardware and started to have some problems. I edited the bootnet.img and seem to have most of the hardware issues taken care of the system now boots, loads the ks.cfg over http and then formats the SCSI RAID partitions, and then at this point I get some errors on the console saying that the device (no name here) doesn't have enough space to save hdlist2 from the http url. I did a bit of investigation and found an odd thing. There is nothing mounted on /mnt/sysimage however the directories /dev and /proc are already in there. Odd. So, out of curiosity I mount one of my ext3 file systems onto /mnt/sysimage. The moment I do this the error stops and the system starts loading rpms. Of course, the install will be bad, since I only mounted one, but it seems to suggest that the system is failing to mount the partitions for some reason. I don't see any errors suggesting this, but.... Has anyone ever seen anything like this before? Have any thoughts or ideas?
