Magento 11.2 ISO (may have been 11.1) gave numerous Casper Errors on install To ESXI 4.0

[Landis]

Difficult TKLBAM-RESTORE process started with attempting to install to ESXI from ISO (my previous default method) and I noticed many Casper Errors created during the install process itself. I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT A CASPER ERROR IS but I see it in code.turnkey site as a whole branch.

This seems to have been rectified (I could actually get RESTORE completed) by using the Appliance VMX(sic) version.

(Related were many MYSQL restore issues noted on the Forum.. I believe more MYSQL memory would likely have solved those restore issues on large files (such as log and other files)

As casper is to do with the live scripts (ie when you run from a live CD) these error messages won't cause any issues to an installed system.

Still, IMO it would be nice if they didn't happen - or at least if they weren't reported on screen, as they are a distraction when troubleshooting.

RP just posted a fix for the Casper scripts (http://www.turnkeylinux.org/forum/support/20121015/turnkey-linux-file-server-120-cant-detect-my-dell-server-em0#comment-16122)

It requires creating a symlink:

cd /
ln -s /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts

It would be better to fix the cause (in casper) than implement a workaround resulting with cruft in /.
