Just curious, what leads you to believe it's the CMS parameter file? (Thanks
for the documentation references, I have been reviewing them.
Just a misunderstanding in naming of files:
(CMS) parameter file - parameters for the linux kernel
(CMS) config file - device configuration, referenced by CMSCONFFILE= in
the parameter file
"root=/dev/ram0" should be removed from your parameter file.
Also "inst.cmdline" should not be used unless you specify a kickstart
file in your parameter file.
I hope it helps.
Linux parameter file:

Subject: Re: ClefOS installation problems...
It looks like incorrect parameters in the CMS parameter file.
Since ClefOS is based on RHEL, I would recommend reading the RHEL installation
guide:
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/7/html/Installation_Guide/part-installation-system-z.html
<https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/7/html/Installation_Guide/part-installation-system-z.html>
Especially this section might be useful:
