I'm not convinced that I didn't do something wrong settingup the NFS and PXE configs, but I'm at a loss as to where to start debugging this.
What RAMdisk file is it that was loaded right before these errors? the initrd from grub? or some other install ramdisk?
it looks like it successfully loaded the installation system "/boot/root" Did you mix up 32bit initrd/root with 64bit initrd/root maybe?
I don't think so. I have the merged CD tree NFS exported from the same machine that is the tftp boot server. I mount it at /export/OSImages/SLES9u4_X64. For the tftpboot files, I just loop-back mount /export/OSImages/SLES9u4_X64/boot into /tftpboot/SLES9u4_X64. DHCP/PXE is configured to boot into pxegrub. The pxegrub menu points to the kernel and initrd in /tftpboot/SLES9u4_X64. I diffed the install tree with another one, no changes. I verified the the mounts and the 64bit ones are all 64bit - no typos (they were done cut and paste.) I don't get it.
initrd has to be on your tftp server, while the root file is one the installation source. It's easy to mix them up.
Where in the install tree is the root file? So I can verify it's contents?
