Thanks Andrea, I will endeavour to test it.
When I run si_prepareclient --server xxxxx

This seems ok. Anyway, the problem was in the "embedded"

This should work.
It does not seem to update the grub settings:
The /dev/ram stuff seems to still be a problem (sorry I did not
post this more complete report right away):

Due to a bug in xfs_freeze, the following command might produce a segmentation
fault when /boot/grub is not in an XFS filesystem. This error is harmless and
can be ignored.
xfs_freeze: specified file ["/boot/grub"] is not on an XFS filesystem
Installation finished. No error reported.
This is the contents of the device map /boot/grub/device.map.
Check if this is correct or not. If any of the lines is incorrect,
fix it and re-run the script `grub-install'.

Perhaps the policy is not to change grub settings anymore. I know in
version 3.8.2 it use to work (albeit I used debs on amd64 as converted from
rpms, at least for the initrd component).
