True netmask is identified when you build the ramdisk. It is inside
the ramdisk (/initrd/etc/boottab ) That's why replacing the tftp image=20
worked.=20

I haven't run the SSI cluster on RH7.2 after rc.sysinit.nodeup was
introduced.I do most of my SSI work on debian But i will try to
answer some of the questions.=20

This is how the SSI right now handles the context dependent symbolic
links. ( CDSL ). CDSL's are done by using the --bind option of the mount
command. But i guess this is going to change. . Now on each node
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts should point to
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts-'nodenumber'

yes see above.=20

NO rc.sysint is run only in the case of master node.Rest of the nodes
run /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit.nodeup.=20
And if you see mounting the network-scripts is commented . Uncomment
that line.=20

Swap is not getting mounted by default in the case of dependent node.
you will have to add in manually.This is going to change soon. I have
already checked in the code to make the fstab cluster wide.=20

I didn't understand this part. ? What is that you are trying to do ?=20
