Thanks Connie!
I am pretty sure there is something wrong on my side but I cannot find
what. This morning I downloaded again 7.1 distrib (rsync) and I have
still the same problem. But a collegue of mine did the same and it works
for him. He sent me his kickstart file and using exactly the same one
(except the url to the distrib) I still have the problem...
Installing from 7.0 (with errata) works...
I cannot imagine that this problem is impacted by the firmware... I
never saw such a weird problem! I dont understand where the
/lib/modules/3.10.0.123 can come from when booting 7.1 vmlinuz+initrd.
Cheers,
Michel

Hi,
I don't know if this is related in some ways to the other recent=20
thread about "SL 7.1, PXE install". I'm struggling with SL7.1 (and I=20
have the same pb with CentOS 7.1) when trying to do a PXE install of
a=20
machine using the last versions of images/pxeboot/vmlinuz and=20
initrd.img. The install fails when trying to set the default=20
filesystem type to XFS (that I don't use on this machine) because
the=20
xfs module is not found. Looking at console (ALT/F2), I saw that the=20
kernel version provided by vmlinuz (uname -r) is not matching the=20
kernel version for which modules are provided in initrd=20
(/lib/modules). If I take vmlinuz and initrd from SL7.0 I don't see=20
the problem (but I am not sure I can install 7.1 booting with=20
vmlinuz/initrd from 7.0).
Is it expected ? Am I doing a trivial mistake ? Or is there an issue ?
