Installation, maintenance, and usage of the SystemImager configuration management suite.
System Imager homepage: http://systemimager.org
Description from the System Imager homepage:
- SystemImager is software that automates Linux installs, software distribution, and production deployment.
- SystemImager makes it easy to do automated installs (clones), software distribution, content or data distribution, configuration changes, and operating system updates to your network of Linux machines. You can even update from one Linux release version to another!
- It can also be used to ensure safe production deployments. By saving your current production image before updating to your new production image, you have a highly reliable contingency mechanism. If the new production enviroment is found to be flawed, simply roll-back to the last production image with a simple update command!
- Some typical environments include: Internet server farms, database server farms, high performance clusters, computer labs, and corporate desktop environments.

I untarred the source package under
/systemimager and edited the value of
PREFIX in the file
Makefile to be
PREFIX = /systemimager.
I then ran make all, which resulted in a bunch of errors at this point:
make[1]: Entering directory `/hda4-180gb/systemimager/systemimager-3.4.0/src/dosfstools-2.8/mkdosfs'
cc -O2 -Dllseek=lseek64 -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE -c mkdosfs.c -o mkdosfs.o
Assuming that this means that 3.4.0 is unstable, I backed off to 3.2.3 and tried the same thing: SAME PROBLEM.
