Summary: Problem booting master node in FC3

Initial Comment:
Installation goes fine, but when re-booting with the
SSI 1.9.1 enabled kernel the following messages appear:

Uncompressing Linux... Ok, booting the kernel.

The system is a Dell Dimension 8300, P4 with 1MB RAM. 
I've been running FC3 on it with no problems for
several months.  I did a clean install of FC3 before
installing OpenSSi.

did you enable the openssi option in the clustring tab while
compiling openssi cluster. for this to happen you have to
select initrd option and also /dev filesystem.

initrd will be in block devices tab when you do make menuconfig

and /dev will be in filesystems. there will be seperate tab
called clustering, just enable it and be cautious in
selecting packages so that no problem occurs.

Going to close this bug.  Install bug is fixed in 1.9.2pre.

NFS fixes have been checked into CVS some time ago (probably
after 1.9.2pre), and have been verified on the ssic users
mailing list - NFS is functional.

I did resolve this issue as suggested by rogertsang on
August 26th.. the installation script was building a broken
initrd.  I've been using SSI successfully since then but the
lack of NFS support for FC3 (and some issues building a
kernel driver for my hardware raid controller).. has
convinced me to try out ROCKS for my cluster.  Depending on
my experience with it, I may or may not go back to OpenSSI.

that won't be your only problem - things such as http also
panic the kernel... :-(

We've had success installing 1.9.2-pre on FC3.

Is there someone out there, who's managed to install SSI for
FC3 ever ?

As there hasn't happened anything in the last 6 months, I
doubt that there will be any action to SSI.

We've got to burry it.

That's exactly what I did.

System hangs as described above - but - it's also impossible
to boot up FC3. The links made in /var seem to be not
correct und the file-system is reported as 'read-only'.

I've got to do a complete new installation of FC3. I've
learned to make an image of the partitions bevore.

This is an installation bug.  Re-run ssi-create then
`mkinitrd --cfs` and ssi-ksync.  Verify the kernel is
booting the newest initrd image.
