opennode 6.0rc1 install failed

(1/3) > >>

chenlong828:
I was trying to install the opennode 6.0 rc1 to my IBM HS22 Blade Server though the Remote Control of Advanced Management module.

When I finished the text install step and got into the GUI installer, I encountered my problem:

After assigned the root password, the install tell me that "Unable to read group information from repositories. This is a problem with the generation of your install tree."

The dialog with only two button: Exit installer and retry(without help)

Before enter the GUI installer, I choose automatic raid 1 with softraid as my partition profile.

What can I do to continue my experience?

activesys:
Please try also install without softraid - and see if it works. We will try to replicate the problem but it might be hardware specific - eg how drive devices are detected and assigned. You can convert later to softraid on-line (without stopping or re-installing the server) - I can provide you with exact instructions for that later if you want.

activesys:
We are unable to reproduce the problem in VirtualBox environment for softraid install - eg install proceeds normally beoynd password dialogue - so its probably hardware specific. Could you please also choose install with manual partitioning and see how blade disks are represented in manual partitioning dialogue - and please post us the findings - as we dont have currently HS22 blades in our hands :)

activesys:
Also - have you checked your install ISO md5 checksum - in order to verify that downloaded ISO file is not corrupted in any way?

activesys:
I added softraid conversion howto if anybody interested: http://opennode.activesys.org/forum/index.php/topic,158.0.html
