Booting CentOS 7 via iPXE on UEFI (HP G9)
Hi All,

I'm trying to boot CentOS 7 using the images in the images/pxeboot directory. The hardware is HP DL380 G9 in native (UEFI) mode. The kernel boots but always panics as follows:

[ 4.138406] List of all partitions:
[ 4.155273] No filesystem could mount root, tried:
[ 4.178291] Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0)

This seems identical to the bug described here https://bugs.centos.org/print_bug_page.php?bug_id=8295 but switching to one of the fixed kernels makes no difference.

Has anyone seen this? For reference, here's the relevant bit of my iPXE config:

kernel http://blah.blah/allen/vmlinuz ro initrd=initrd.img console=ttyS1,115200n8
initrd http://blah.blah/allen/initrd.img

Thanks,
Allen
