#4140 E: Cannot install a hook (/usr/share/dracut/modules.d/97xcat/xcat-premount.sh) that does not exist.

While creating a SL image with genimage the script will call /opt/xcat/share/xcat/netboot/SL/genimage.

In the mkinitrd_dracut function if mode=statelite there are a couple of files that do not exist, from the code:

cp("$fullpath/$dracutdir/xcat-updateflag",$dracutmpath);
$perm = (stat("$fullpath/$dracutdir/xcat-updateflag"))[2];
chmod($perm&07777, "$dracutmpath/xcat-updateflag");

cp("$fullpath/$dracutdir/xcat-premount.sh",$dracutmpath);
$perm = (stat("$fullpath/$dracutdir/xcat-premount.sh"))[2];
chmod($perm&07777, "$dracutmpath/xcat-premount.sh");

but the files do not exist in the dracut directory:

[root@controller xcat-xcat-core]# ll /root/xcat-xcat-core/xCAT-server/share/xcat/netboot/SL/dracut/

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 24 mei 21 22:14 xcatroot -> ../../rh/dracut/xcatroot

the necessary file links where never made for those 2 cp commands to work.

This was checked in xCAT 2.8.3 and the latest code from the master branch (2.9 if I am not mistaken).
