I'm using a fresh install of redhat 7.3 and I'm REALLY new to linux.  The
oscar install seems to go smoothly until I need to autoinstall my
imagenode.  In the beginning of the autoinstall script, which is after
successfully retrieving its IP(which I'm finally achieved), the
autoinstaller fails trying to partition the disk.  I'm pretty much stuck.

Here is the error from the client:

partitioning sda...
/dev/sda: No such device
sfdisk: cannot open /dev/sda read-write

I don't know why autoinstall is trying /dev/sda and not /dev/sda1.  Here
is a copy of my disk partition file, I'm not sure if I got these
settings right

/dev/sda1       45            ext3              /boot defaults
/dev/sda2       55714         ext3              /     defaults
/dev/sda3       1992          swap
nfs_oscar:/home  -            nfs               /

And if you would like to see, here are the results for sfdisk -l
   Device Boot Start     End   #cyls   #blocks   Id  System
/dev/sda1   *      0+      5       6-    48163+  83  Linux
/dev/sda2          6    7221    7216  57962520   83  Linux
/dev/sda3       7222    7475     254   2040255   82  Linux swap
/dev/sda4          0       -       0         0    0  Empty

The ones who are the happiest aren't necessarily the richest or the
wrinkle-free.  They're the ones who accept the changes, keep on giving,
keep connected to friends and family, and perhaps most important, keep
feeding their minds.
