== Current Issues ==

=== Kubuntu related ===

 * RAID1 array of builtin LSI SAS controler not recognized by installer. [[https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.15/+bug/37452|Malone #37452]].  '''Workaround:''' unknown.
 * single disk of builtin LSI SAS controler detected as ''/dev/sdi''.  Reboot fails because now it's ''/dev/sda''. [[https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/hw-detect/+bug/33249|Malone #33249]].  '''Workaround:'''  replaces ''/dev/sdi'' with ''/dev/sda'' in /etc/fstab /boot/grub/menu.lst
 * Network setup via DHCP:  ~ 1 out of 4 unattended installations stop because automatic network config fails due timeout too short.  A manual retry succeeds immediatly.  Haven't found a way to preseed a longer timeout (10 sec more would be fine)
 * Network services fail on boot because DHCP network setup seem to be done in background and startup scripts of NFS, AFS fail because network setup has not finished yet.  '''Workaround:''' add a startup script after loops untils a default gateway is defined (linked as S21networking-wait4up)

=== Hardware related ===

 * The builtin service processor board lists the 4 GBit interfaces in a different order than Kubuntu, SLES9 or Solaris.  OS: 1,2,3,4 -> SP: 3,4,1,2.  '''Workaround:''' Sun send us a little tool that changes the order of the interfaces in the SP to match the order of the OS.
 * Configuring the service processor network info with DHCP without a gateway.  Monitoring via IPMI fails after some hours, due to log entries overflowing memory.  Report to Sun. No fix yet. '''Workaround:''' adding gateway info to DHCP fixes the problem.
