Ovirt devel - Jun 2009 - Adding hosts to the hardware pool

Hi there,

I just installed oVirt and cobbler (I'm 100% novice!, so this could be a
100% silly question...). I can't get my initial host into the hardware pool.
It PXE boots through cobbler, then fails with message "WARNING: Cannot find
root file system!" and "Create symlink /dev/root and then exit this
shell to
continue the boot sequence."

I suspect I didn't set up my ovirt-node correctly in cobbler. I used
"/usr/share/ovirt-node-image/tftpboot/vmlinuz0" as the kernel and
"/usr/share/ovirt-node-image/tftpboot/initrd0.img" as initrd.

Can you please help me with this, I just ran out of ideas?..

Thanks a lot!

Did you install ovirt-node-image-pxe?  If so, what does your
pxelinux/cfg/default file look like?
