Hi all,
Seeing funky errors on your AI images?
X86 AI: "failed to get ramdisk from boot" right out of GRUB (with
a number of unexpected trap failures)
SPARC AI: "Mon Nov 16 22:38:36 wanboot alert: Internal Server
Error (root filesystem image missing)"
This is due to the following flag-day. For those who forgot this
doesn't get cleaned up until build 128, this is a gentle reminder.
Jean has awesomely offered to provide a finalizer script to bring
over the files from the WOS and stick them in the right place sometime
tomorrow which I will use in building the nightly test images and can
which people can use in building their own images.
Thank you,
Clay
