I got it figured out. The scrolling messages was moving the important warnings off of the screen to where I couldn't see them - "No space left on device".

The VM did not have enough memory assigned to it to completely extract the root filesystem. After fixing that issue everything booted up fine :)

This is being ran on a CentOS 7.1 "build host". The management node is CentOS 6.6. I am following the docs for building an OS image of a different type. I am then running imgexport on the "build host", copying the tar over to the management node, and running "imgimport".

Here's the osimage definition:

Can you show me the osimage definition that you run genimage against?

Subject: [xcat-user] Diskless centos7.1 image failing to boot

------------------------------------------------------------------------



Hi all,

I am attempting to create my first diskless Centos 7.1 image using xCAT
2.10. I have built the image and my node is successfully PXE'ing,
however is failing to switch over to the rootimg with the following
error on the console:

switch_root: cannot access /sbin/init: No such file or directory
switch_root: failed to execute /sbin/init: No such file or directory

Looking at the rootimg directory, /sbin/init does exist. Unpacking the
initrd-stateless file yields no /sbin/init, but there is an init at /.
This is the same when comparing it with an unpacked CentOS 6 image.

I know that RHEL/CentOS 7 introduces the systemd crud which I am not
very familiar with yet. Is there a package or configuration error I
could be making in my CentOS 7 osimage configuration that could be
causing this?

Thanks!
