Hi,

When installing a Rocks 4.1 NAS appliance type today, I noticed an
anaconda Exception on ksclass.py line 985: in
initializeRocksPartition()

  3 arguments given, 2 expected

it went by fast, so this is an approximation. Then the node reboot
itself. On inspection this was from
hpc/include/installclass/noauto.py. The fix is below, and still seems
applicable to what's in CVS:

[root@drdsvc0 installclass]# diff -u noauto.py
~fds/studies/rocks-patches/noauto.py

                #
                # don't remove non-rocks partitions
                #

The nas installed fine with the fix in place.

PS. If you see an anaconda exception in 'ksclass.py' line XX and want
to find the python line of the error:
1. make a kickstart file for the node that saw the error:
# dbreport kickstart [nodename] > ks.cfg
2. edit the ks.cfg, search for '%installclass'.
3. Make a new file 'ksclass.py' which is a subset of ks.cfg, starting
the line just after %installclass and going to the end of ks.cfg.
4. Inspect ksclass.py at line XX and you should be at your error!

Enjoy your vacations
