Issue to install VM by PXE

[perriot]

Hi,

may be someone can help me.
I am starting a POC with proxmox ( pve-manager/3.0/0428106c )
I would install a VM (KVM) in centOs with a pxe boot.

No issues for the proxmox setup.
But I have a issue during the pxe boot on my VM.
I get well my vmlinuz and my initrd from my tftp but after the initfsram, on the fist init process, I have a Kernel panic :

Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!
Pid: 1, comm: init Not tainted 2.6.32-358.el6.x86_64 #1

The vmlinuz and initrd used are the same used to install physical server (without issues) and come from official centOs mirrors.
I have try with several version centOs 6.4 , 6.3, 5.8, ... always same issue, so I presume my problem is not about a corrupted vmlinuz/initrd.
The VM is in local and qcow, below the vm file definition :

[FONT=arial]balloon: 512
[/FONT][FONT=arial]bootdisk: virtio0
cores: 4
ide2: none,media=cdrom
memory: 4096
name: ope-2
net0: e1000=76:15:97:DF:DF:43,bridge=vmbr-infra
ostype: l26
sockets: 1
virtio0: local:101/vm-101-disk-1.qcow2,format=qcow2,size=32G[/FONT]

Else I can install the same VM when I add a cdrom

[FONT=arial]
ide2: iso:iso/CentOS-6.4-x86_64-minimal.iso,media=cdrom,size=350546K
[/FONT]

If someone know what I do wrong, it will be great.

Thank in advance

Hi,

we have found our issue and all work fine now.
I give you what we were doing wrong, in case if someone have the same issue another day...

The issue coming from inappropriate kernel option (console=ttyS1,115200) set in the cobbler profile used for these tests (a too quick copy/paste ).

Regards
