Without the installer CD the system doesn't boot at all,
I just get a
black screen. When I boot a Fedora CD in rescue mode it says something
like, "no linux partitions found" and I cannot mount the disk as it
doesn't recognize a filesystem.
Our hardware:
Supermicro X8DTL-I with Areca ARC-1120 RAID
http://www.supermicro.nl/products/motherboard/qpi/5500/x8dtl-i.cfm
The first problem I have is with installation, I get a similar message as:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=849937
Clean install ovirt-node-iso-2.5.999-999.20120817153122git10fbec7.297.fc17 failed when
an exception has occurred
with error "ovirtnode.storage:/dev/mapper/3600*600094" is not
available"
I think I need the following patch for this that's already merged but
not in stable I read.
http://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/7504/
installer: don't remove log2 directory when merging log files
After that I installed a minimal Fedora 17 to try that and it installs
without problems.
But it detects the cpu as Conroe and not Nehalem E5520 so we're missing
out on some cpu features.
Same as this:
http://www.mail-archive.com/users@ovirt.org/msg03046.html
oVIrt 3.1 - Xeon E5530 - Wrong cpu identification
http://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/5035/
BZ#737104 Disallow cross-vendor virtualization.
Find vendor for all cpu models, including those based on another
cpu module.

Hi,<br>
<br>
After some unsuccessful attempts to install the stable node
image on our hardware, I found a patch that can help me.<br>
<br>
I followed all the steps in the wiki to build a node image and
got the build process working (Fedora 17).<br>
<br>
The successfully built iso fails to start correctly and I get
a login prompt. During the built process I had some errors
that could be the cause:<br>

The build continued so it might be ok although some thing need
to possibly be fixed. <br>
<br>
One thing to try it to boot into rescue mode and then manually
run /usr/libexec/ovirt-config-installer. It should at least
give out the error it failed on. Also more detail on: what kind
of install media, cd, usb, pxe and what was the hardware problem
you had with your specific machine?<br>
