It's the same config file I use to successfully pxe boot the same machine using redhat's prebuilt pxeboot kernels in 7.2 or 7.3,
the only difference being the names of the kernel and the initrd image:
default linux
serial 0,9600n8
label linux
kernel vmlinuz-8.0
append initrd=initrd.img-8.0 lang= devfs=nomount nofb ramdisk_size=9216 console=ttyS0,9600 ks=nfs:10.210.1.11:/kickstart/ks.cfg ksdevice=eth0
I don't understand why this won't work when the only difference is the kernel, and I've verified this same kernel boots fine on a floppy.
For some reason it won't load it over tftp. I didn't try renaming it but that didn't strike me as being an issue since "vmlinuz-7.3" is ok.
Thanks,
Mike
