Certainly: http://imagebin.ca/view/fUF5uU62.html > What version of rsync did you upgrade from? Actually, the version of > rsync which came with SystemImager 4.1.6 is 3.0.0, and not 3.0.2: 2.6.something. I tried all versions of rsync (old, current, new)--- yes, including the 3.0.0 that came standard. > Any chance you can downgrade that to 3.0.0 which is the same version > as the one which came with SystemImager's initrd? See above-- been there, done that-- made no difference. > Do you have experience building SystemImager? Another thing to try is > to upgrade the version of rsync in initrd to the latest version (which > seems to be 3.0.3). No, I haven't "built" systemimager. I suppose I could give that a shot.... > How big is your image? And what are the versions of your server and > golden client in this case? A little more than 5G. Versions of... ?

It's a long shot but it's good > to rule out that it is not a switch related issue. I will try this, I am still looking for a crossover cable. But, I do not suspect this will yield any results: Keep in mind rsyncing back and forth between the client and server when they are running works GREAT. My sneaking suspicion is that the nic driver(s) in the "standard" initrd image are old and/or broken-- and that's causing the nic to hang up eventually. Since I have tried all sorts of rsync versions, that's the only thing I think there's left to try. But that's a catch-22-- my UYOK blows up-- see top of this post for the image/screenshot of the kernel panic. It totally confuses me why my kernel works great, but when systemimager packages it up for net booting, it blows. Perhaps the image I posted above (console screen showing the error) will give you some insight!!! --Kent ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ sisuite-users mailing list sisuite-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/sisuite-users
