see this post and the linked replies from there: http://forum.ipxe.org/showthread.php?tid...6#pid11866

and if you can please post the output of uname -r so we can verify if that is a old kernel or not.

The kernel version is a bit behind. This is the default kernel that comes with the 7.2 installation media:

Code:

$ file vmlinuz
vmlinuz: Linux kernel x86 boot executable bzImage, version 3.10.0-327.el7.x86_64 (mockbuild@x86-ol7-builder-01) #1 SMP Fri, RO-rootFS, swap_dev 0x4, Normal VGA
