I copied that kernel to /tftpboot, and copied that initrd to /tftpboot as well.
After gzipping initrd, and mv'ing it to initrd.img, the kernel started to boot, but then hit
read super_block: cant find a reiserfs filesystem on (dev 01:00, block 10, size 4096)
read super_block: cant find a reiserfs filesystem on (dev 01:00, block 10, size 4096)
Kernel Panic: VFS: unable to mount root fs on 01:00
So either I did something wrong with the initrd, or it's not happy with my hardware. Hmm. Any further ideas? I freely admit that I'm not much of a kernel guy, so I might have just screwed this up.

So, we know the dhcp server is properly configured for the client, as it
downloaded the systemimager kernel and initrd.
Shortly after the initrd started, dhclient ran, sadly it's listening on
the loopback interface, where it will never find a server...
The question is: why doesn't the systemimager kernel/initrd see the device?
Because it's out of date. Try this kernel/initrd combo that I had to use on the 2650's w/ broadcom nics...

What NICs do you have in the clients?
