What does fai-chboot -l on the install server tells you? Every client
should disable its pxelinux config file (calling rsh/ssh fai-chboot -d
on the install server). Therefor you need to define LOGUSER and this
user needs write permissions for /boot/fai/pxelinux.cfg
directory. Otherwise the PXE get the same config file, which tells the
install client to boot the fai installer kernel and not to boot from
local hard disk. Dont' forget to call fai-chboot -o default once, and
have a llok at fai-chboot.8.
