Hi all,

After spending another day of debugging I think I found the problem.

There seems to be a bug in the kernel (2.6.18-194.el5) which was provided for 
pxe install on the CentOS 5.5 iso images. I could trigger it rproducilble via 
the following steps:

  * boot it via pxe in rescue mode
  * ensure you have a swap and a date (probably ext3) partition
  * try to mount the swap partition -> this fails
  * try to mount the normal partition -> system hangs -> kernel panic

Can anybody confirm/disprove this?

@developers: Is there a way to change the kickstart pre script which tries to 
not mount a swap partition?

Regards,

Sascha Bendix
