Environment / Profile Wierdest I have seen yet: on 2004-2 after compiling the kernel ( on an upgrade of afformentioned servers ) from Stage1 install, Server A progressed fine through recognizing hardware on boot, Server B reported that there were no modules available and proceeded to throw out hundreds of lines of RC_Tree messages. And would allow root login, but there were no services available other than basic kernel level. I ended up just DD'ing server A's drive since they were identical ( we had a deadline to meet). After checking through some of the forums and bugs, it seems that the environment and/or profile will get stuck in an old state. How the install scripts miss that, I don't know.... I just go and manually check for the current profiles and correct ENV_xxxx variables upon new installs now.
