Hello,

I searched the discussion topics but can't seem to find an answer. I created and configured a PXE server as per instructions and still having issues pxe booting a client and installing my saved centos 7 image. What I see is a kernal crash VFS: Unable to mount root fs. Shouldn't this work just like booting off the usb stick with the ram option where you then can remove the usb stick. What I'm trying to do is update 33 servers with a good image from the pxe server.

Thanks

Dale G.

"a kernal crash VFS: Unable to mount root fs." -> Could you please take a photo about that on the screen then post it?
BTW, did you try DRBL live:

This is kernel/hardware support issue. Please try the latest Clonezilla live, or even testing ones, like Clonezilla live
20150323-utopic, 20150323-vivid, or 2.4.0-4 on
http://clonezilla.org/downloads.php
