Package: systemimager-client Version: 3.6.3dfsg1-3 Severity: normal If you run si_prepareclient on a system with no installed kernel, it fails to compelete and never starts the rsync daemon.
Steps to repeat. 1. Make sure that there are no kernels in installed in /boot 2. Run si_prepareclient 3. Observe that upon completion there is no rsyncd process running 4. Attempt to connect using si_getimage and observe failure to connect This sutation happened to me in a Xen domU. Since the kernel is loaded from within the dom0, there is no need to have a kernel in the domU. When si_prepareclient tries to populate the /etc/systemimager/boot directory, it cannot find a kernel and so fails.
