  • Diskless boot always fail - error dracut - could not boot

    Posted on

    Hi all. I am try to run diskless client, but always have error - "Could not boot" from dracut. I'm using PXE, tftp and nfs. client iso build using rsync. Tftp work properly. I think it's error in nfs.
    My pxelinux.cfg/default :
    default rhel7

    label rhel7
    kernel vmlinuz-3.10.0-693.el7.x86_64
    append initrd=initramfs-3.10.0-693.el7.x86_64.img
    root=nfs:10.0.0.1:/nodeboot rw

    Show mount output :
    $ showmount -e 10.0.0.1
    Export list for 10.0.0.1:
    /nodeboot 10.0.0.1/24

    What a problem? What i'm doing wrong?
    I configure all like in https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/7/html-single/Storage_Administration_Guide/index.html#ch-disklesssystems
    But always get error - "Could not boot".
    Server OS rhel 7
