I went through google and got something like this chdef -t osimage -o centos-7.3-x86_64-install-compute -p addkcmdline="R::biosdevname=0" "R::net.ifnames=0"
It appends the kernel parameters and enables the common naming of interfaces as eth#. I tried to reboot the clients but its stuck on initrd. I did a geninitrd command but still its stuck.
