That is correct. I think you should be able to modify my parmfile for you needs. So in your case, the following parmfile should work: ro ramdisk_size=40000 cio_ignore=all,!condev CMSDASD=191 CMSCONFFILE=xxxxxxx.conf inst.repo=http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (I guess you can skip it if you specify it cond file ) vnc vncpassword=redhat > And here is the xxxxxxxxxxxx.CONF-RH7 file: > > DASD=200,204 > HOSTNAME=xxxxxxxxxxxx.xxxx.com > NETTYPE=qeth > IPADDR=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx > SUBCHANNELS=0.0.0500,0.0.0501,0.0.0502 > NETMASK=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx > SEARCHDNS=xxxx.com > METHOD=nfs:xxxxxxxxx:/var/opt/rhel71 > GATEWAY=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx > DNS=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx > MTU=1492 > PORTNAME= > PORTNO=0 > LAYER2=0 > > that looks fine. I have double quotes but that shouldn't matter Is there anything else you are getting before the error output you've presented? Does it even load kernel and print kernel parameters?
