Hi,

Greetings!!

Currently I am facing some issue to implement systemimager. I request your
kind guidance.

I have installd and configured systemimager (version -
4.1.99.svn4556yaubert) on Debian 8 Jessie server. Also successfully fetch
the image of golden client using *si_getimage*. Now I am unable to create
bootable USB disk on systemimager server.

Please find following error details which I am facing now. /dev/sde is the
usb disk here.


##########################################################################

root@debian:~# si_mkautoinstalldisk --device /dev/sde


Creating DOS filesystem in /dev/sde...
 >> mkdosfs -I /dev/sde
mkfs.fat 3.0.27 (2014-11-12)
Using "syslinux" to make a bootable device...
 >> syslinux /dev/sde
plain floppy: device "/proc/16658/fd/3" busy (Resource temporarily
unavailable):

Bad target s:/ldlinux.sys
syslinux: failed to create ldlinux.sys
error: syslinux /dev/sde at /usr/bin/si_mkautoinstalldisk line 233, <STDIN>
line 1.

#############################################################################

After failing to create USB disk, I have created a bootable *.iso* image
file using *si_mkautoinstallcd *with standard flavour.

When I use the .iso file (the standard one) to boot a client node, it
unable to get IP address from our internal DHCP server in the same network.

When I use the .iso file (the standard one) with appending all required
network information to the kernel at the boot time, it assigned the IP
address to eth0 but not able to ping imageserver IP or the wateway IP. I
have also manually configured network properties at the  /my_modules #
prompt with following commands but faced same issue.


1>  add DNS name server at /etc/resolv.conf

2> start lan card with ip and mask

ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.100 netmask 255.255.255.0

3> add the gateway

# remove the default gw , if any
route del default
# set default gw
route add default gw 192.168.1.1


Regards,

Pratip Ghosh
