>From the code (anaconda.pm), it looks like dracut is not support for Centos. Please remove the dracut rpms from the pkglist and regenerate the image.

It comes soon enough." --- Albert Einstein From: Michael Robbert <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Date: 01/09/2013 02:05 PM Subject: [xcat-user] NFSROOT problem -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I just switched from stateless using RAMdisk based boot to statelite using NFS root and ran into another problem. After following all the documentation to change our setup I finally run nodeset to create the new pxelinux.cfg file and it generates this: #statelite centos6.3-x86_64-compute DEFAULT xCAT LABEL xCAT KERNEL xcat/netboot/centos6.3/x86_64/compute/kernel APPEND initrd=xcat/netboot/centos6.3/x86_64/compute/initrd-statelite.gz NFSROOT=172.17.0.1:/install/netboot/centos6.3/x86_64/compute STATEMNT= XCAT=172.17.0.1:3001 ifname=eth0:00:30:48:f2:87:78 netdev=eth0 console=tty0 console=ttyS0,19200n8r MNTOPTS= IPAPPEND 2 When I boot that node it kernel panics after an error: dracut: FATAL: No or empty root= argument I see that nodeset did not generate a root= argument and after looking at the dracut documentation it looks like it is required. If I manually add the proper root= argument, pointing to the rootimg directory, the node boots perfectly. So, my question is should nodeset be generating the root= argument or should it be booting somehow without it?
