Glad to know that it's working.
 
Those are actually not error messages (merely warnings), anything else...?

Thank you, Bernard
 I stop the pfilter, and re-image client nodes. it works! !  :-)
 two of my three client nodes can boot successfully now, but still one 
has a problem.

              probing devices to guess BIOS drives,this may take a long
time:
              end-request: I/O error ,dev fd0, sector 0
              Buffer I/O error on device fd0 logical block 0
