I just wanted to see if anyone had a chance to T/S this? Getting anxious due to deadlines!

Same error message: Can’t have partition outside the disk…

A message does flash really fast about an unsupported BIOS version… but I’m not sure if that is actually the problem we’re having.

I tinkered with this some more. With the bzimage34 kernel… when it tries to push down to the client, it checks hard disk and says “image cannot be outside of disk” or something to that affect. Went into the client and it had a TON of partitions… more than the 250 GB hard drive… it was like 1TB+. I pulled out the HDD and reformatted in an external enclosure. Trying the push down again to the client.

We didn’t try other machines… We had to restore it to the old kernel so that we could continue working!

Hopefully, we can make some progress next week. Thanks for your help.

No good… when uploading, getting partition errors. Tried to push it down, failed… said it pushed the image down really quick and finished in seconds.

We are working with a Fujitsu T731.

Will try it right now… stand by.

I tried downloading your kermel but it had no file extension and was only 10.4 MB where as the 3.4 kernel is 96 MB

I also tried just using the 3.4 kernel but when I got to the step of creating the bzImage I got this error:

Thanks… is this kernel 3.3 with the addition for this NIC? So, would I be able to use this kernel with all of my machines, since they all worked with 3.3? I am thinking it would be easier, if this works, to apply the kernel to all machines.

I am having this same issue and I’ve been watching this thread develop. I’m ready to try the 3.4 kernel.

I have a few questions…

1. Is this for both 32 and 64 bit clients?
2. Will this work on both 32 and 64 bit ubuntu?
