Yes, I already have that image file, used it last year to setup this box. However, I am looking for the script used to create that image. I don't think it is the same script as above, mkimg (referenced therin) is not available on 9.3R: [root@kabini1, /etc, 8:23:44am] 613 % which mkimg mkimg: Command not found.
