Any have a working RHEL7 HTTP/Static install configuration

RE: Any have a working RHEL7 HTTP/Static install configuration
Well folks. I answered my own question coming across a CenOS7 post someplace else.

Here is what I found...

Code:
set mirror http://${ksaddress}/iso/rh73/
set repo inst.repo=http://${ksaddress}/iso/rh73
set ks http://${ksaddress}/ks/html/boot.php?ip=${ip}&hostname=${hostname}&netmask=${netmask}&gateway=${gateway}&ksfile=${ksfile}

set image images/pxeboot/initrd.img
set squash LiveOS/squashfs.img
set bootdev inst.ksdevice=eth0
set predictable net.ifnames=0 biosdevname=0

set params ${bootdev} ${predictable} inst.ks=${ks} ip=${ip}::${gateway}:${netmask}:${hostname}::none inst.loglevel=debug [color=#FF0000]root=live:${mirror}${squash}[/color]
kernel ${mirror}images/pxeboot/vmlinuz ${repo} ${params}
boot

Rather than using initrd.img in the location where you specify "root=live:http://ipaddress/path/to/initrd.img" I needed to use "root=live:http://ipaddress/LiveOS/squashfs.img" instead. So in fact it did change from RHEL6 and not a bug, user error.

I was able to get an OS install operational.

I just wanted to post this in case anyone else has these issues.

Thanks.

Glen
