It is however already out of date as Ubuntu 12.04 can run 3.2
(linux-generic) 3.5 (linux-generic-lts-quantal) 3.8
(linux-generic-lts-raring) or 3.11 (linux-generic-lts-saucy) kernels:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack
The patch will fix your problem running si_prepareclient (though I can
image that I could not do the network boot on that kernel (still using
an old 2.X Ubuntu 11.04 kernel).
My images are also converted to grub1 instead of grub2, and the master
script edited to have ext3 not ext4, and a similar patch to allow the
server to upload from an ext4 golden client.
I'm looking forward to a new release of SI for Ubuntu 12.04 and 14.04
support!

Jan

I am trying to capture the image of a system that is running Ubuntu

following
command line switches:

I get the following :

ERROR: unsupported kernel 3.5.0-23-generic!
The warnings or errors about "Use of uninitialized value $v1 in
split at
/usr/lib/systemimager/perl/SystemImager/Common.pm line 199" is due to
the way parted is now returning multiple line of text output when the
--version option is passed. It seems that the perl code that is
supposed
to be parsing the stuff that is not able to handle that multi-line
output to extract the version of the parted utility.
However what concerns me most is the message back that says the
3.5.0-23-generic kernel is not supported.
Is there any documentation available for systemimager that would show
the necessary process steps to incorperate support for newer kernels?
Any suggestions about any of this would be most appreciated. BTW,
I have
the following installed on the Ubuntu system:
ii systemconfigurator 2.2.11-1 Unified
Configuration API for Linux Installation
ii systemimager-client 4.1.6 Utilities for
creating an image and upgrading client machines
ii systemimager-common 4.1.6 Utilities and
libraries common to both the server and client
ii systemimager-initrd-template-amd64 4.1.6
SystemImager initrd template for amd64 client nodes
