Description of problem: Installing 6.1 by using PXE server, it will be kernel panic, but 6.0 is succesful. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: prepare an PXE server and using network installing RHEL6.1 Steps to Reproduce: 1. prepare the PXE server by using the config like below: DHCP NFS TFTP service is started and workable. modify the BOOTX64.cfg vi /var/lib/tftpboot/BOOTX64.cfg #debug --graphics default=0 timeout=30 splashimage=(nd)/splash.xpm.gz timeout 5 hiddenmenu title Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.0 root (nd) kernel /rhel6.0/vmlinuz ip=dhcp method=nfs:192.168.16.1:/var/ftp/rhel6.0x64/ initrd /rhel6.0/initrd.img title Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.1 root (nd) kernel /rhel6.1/vmlinuz ip=dhcp method=nfs:192.168.16.1:/var/ftp/rhel6.1x64/ initrd /rhel6.1/initrd.img 2.client using PXE install from PXE server 3.select install RHEL6.1 Actual results: It will show kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(1,0) Expected results: it should be into the grub menu to install OS Additional info:
This can't be fully evaluated until the traceback that results is attached to the bug, but it's certainlty not an efibootmgr bug. Reassigning to kernel, though it could still be a grub problem or a dhcpd.conf configuration problem. No way to tell until we see the traceback.
For some reason the kernel's being asked to boot from /dev/ram0. Reassigning to anaconda.
This can't be an anaconda problem yet, anaconda isn't running. Too vague.
