Bernard,

 

No I am not using LVM, the fstab shows:

 

LABEL=/           /           ext3      default   1 1

LABEL=/boot     /boot     ext3      default   1 2

none                 /devpts  devpts   gid=5,mode=620            0 0

none                 /dev/shm           tmpfs    default   0 0

none                 /dev/proc           proc      default   0 0

/dev/cciss/c0d0p3          swap     swap     default   0 0

dev/cdrom         /mnt/cdrom        udf,iso9660 …

de/fd0               /mnt/floppy        auto 

 

and sfdisk shows three partitions p1, p2, p3 (/, /boot and swap) for /dev/cciss/c0d0, which size is 142253280.  This corresponds with what SI tries creates a dev of the same size, and part1, part2, part3 components.

 

Thanks,

Bela

Are you using LVM?

Subject: [Sisuite-users] Problem with mkautoinstallcd tmpfs

Hi,

 

I am attempting an image install with si_mkautoinstallcd using SI 3.6.3.  The tmpfs mounted as / is not large enough to create the entire file structure.  The process ends with tmpfs 99% full.

 

I have attempted to specify the –append option to si_mkautoinstallcd with various values without success.  The following parameters were specified:

 

tmpfs_size=2G tmpfs_nr_inodes=2000”

tmpfs_size=1g tmpfs_nr_inodes=1000”

tmpfs_size=1g”

 

Regardless, tmpfs is created each time the same size with or without the mount options specified at: 452,788 1-k blocks.  This is weird since the machine has 2G of RAM, I would expect to see a default tmpfs mount of about 1G.

 

It seems that si_mkautoinstallcd is not passing the arguments to the mount tmpfs command.  Is there a place in the scripts where I could explicitly specify the tmpfs mount options?  I have searched the autoinstall and SystemImager::Server.pm scripts, but I cannot find the logical place to impact a change.

 

It seems that the golden image will install properly if I could just get tmpfs to increase in size.

 

Thanks,

Bela
