problem installing flash image on v240 that doesn't contain DVD drive
2007-12-25 2:22:00
I installed a v240 and patched it with the most recent patch cluster (as
of about 3 weeks ago). I then created a flash archive and installed the
image on some other v240s without an issue. I ran into a problem when I
went to install the image onto a v240 that did not contain a DVD drive.
It seems that if the machine has a DVD drive, it is on c0 and the internal
disk(s) get put on c1 otherwise the disks are on c0. I thought that was
odd, but it seemed workable, I went in, changed my profile to reflect c0
since these machines didn't have a DVD drive, and rejumped, The
installation worked as expected, but upon the reboot, it couldn't fsck
anything. I booted from a net image and looked at the installed vfstab
and saw that the disk in there was set to c1. I've never had this problem
before, the jumpstart process has always generated the correct vfstab
for my installation when installing via an archive. It almost seems like
the /etc/vfstab file is getting copied over from my image and not regenerated.
Anyone see this before?
Thanks
