Ejecting a mounted 10.6 Server install image helped.

Hey MV, 
I know this is a issue for myself and others recently, as you mentioned on the 
applicable thread on afp548.  It must be between findInstallerDisc.py and the 
disk arbitration framework, I'll see if I can replicate the problem and then 
work on a test that reproduces it, before I then attempt any code changes that 
would make the test pass.  I'm calling this started even though I'm a long ways 
down the road from making progress.  Thanks

I can confirm the same error if i have any kind of mounted disks on the 
machine. After ejecting all disks I can run the script again with success.

I'm wondering if this has fallen by the wayside. I'm on 10.6.8 trying to build 
from Mac OS X SERVER 10.6.3, and I'm getting the same error that it can't find 
install media. Disc image is named "Mac OS X Server 10.6.3 10D575.dmg" and I've 
confirmed that 10D575 is in my allowed media list for the catalog. Am I missing 
something glaringly obvious? :)

Try without a space between MacOS in the filename.

Apparently Mac OS X Server isn't supported before Lion. Anybody know what the 
actual issues are that cause this to not work? I'd love to take a crack at 
getting around them.

The main issue is that the 'Server installer needs to ask questions during the 
install, and we have no way of answering them. Turns out that there is an 
answer file format that if the installer can find it will skip those questions, 
but I did not know that when I could still work on InstaDMG. With that file on 
the root of a visible volume (probably even a mounted image) the install might 
work in InstaDMG with no further changes. But I don't know that.

The second issue was more a lack of interest on my part. I had (and still have) 
no real need for images of 'Server, and no personal license for 'Server, so I 
spent no time on trying to get it to work.

This is getting off topic, but I'd like to point out that System Image Utility 
can build NetRestore images from server media. Together with Auto Server Setup 
files you get a fully automated server deploy.
