Hello Nathan,
It is a bit old but will this documentation will help?
https://sourceforge.net/p/xcat/wiki/XCAT_iDataPlex_Advanced_Setup/#adding-drivers-to-the-genesis-boot-kernel
Maybe you can add the drivers you need to the older kernel that ships with xCAT
genesis at the moment.
Regards,
David

Subject: [xcat-user] update xCAT genesis kernel
Date: Thu, Nov 9, 2017 8:20 PM
Hi,
I've got some brand new systems which I'm trying to get up and running.
Unfortunately, the xcat genesis image does not include the drivers for any of
the network interfaces in the nodes (Intel or Mellanox ethernet), so discovery
fails.
I found some discussion in this thread about a CentOS 7 genesis image
(https://github.com/xcat2/xcat-core/issues/2258<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__github.com_xcat2_xcat-2Dcore_issues_2258&d=DwMFaQ&c=jf_iaSHvJObTbx-siA1ZOg&r=GXZJILRYuh625D1P_w_8vxyNDAEGDWoFmPVwQ0NBUcY&m=XnTurmS-VzKOmiT1KQx-2Rh8kXqKprQ82QrFbSAnPdg&s=otKwjk0agnSxhXpYas4BvbYu49OrBu691nZO5mzuBZ0&e=>)
Did this ever make it's way in? Alternatively, is there a simple way to give an
upgraded kernel?
