Hi,
Me too here having problem with 2.2.3. I tried with both sel- built iso and official iso in stateless boot. This used to work in 2.2.2 with stateless patches.
In the official iso the problem is similar to Michel van Horseen has seen: in my case Dracut couldn't find root device: liveiso:/..... but this is strange as I have put in kernel option root=live:/.... and it should have taken that instead of self invented "liveiso:/". This used to work for me with 2.2.2. something broken here. I'm not really familiar with what do "liveiso:/" and "live:/" mean or what the exact problem is but I've tried to set ovirt-node in pxe, I used a pxeboot script (taken from another rpm since I couldn't find one in ovirt-node package), the script created for me the needed files (ramdisk, kernel and cfg files), and when I've booted from that pxe entry - I found myself in the same problem, got into that shell with the same error message - only my "liveiso:/" pointed to a different path.
I solved that by changing the "liveiso:/blah/blah/blah/ovirt-node.iso" in the kernel path to "live:/ovirt-node.iso", for a backup I copied the ovirt-node.iso file to the same directory where the aforementioned 3 files reside, it worked!
In my own build, the boot dropped into an emergency shell complaining about missing /usr/libexec/ovirt-auto-install file. I know I chatted with Mike Burns for a while yesterday regarding this. This is a new build off tag ovirt-node-2.2.3 but the problem seems persisting.

Hi,
Took me some time before I had time to install the new Ovirt. Now that I did have time, the install was a breeze. Having the RPM repo available helpt a lot off course. :) I have the engine running and storage is connected as is the ISO nfs.
Now I wanted to get a VM host running by booting the node ISO but am running in to a problem. I put the iso via a NAS as a virtual CD on a SuperMicro systems IPMI. Once I boot the machine for the first time, so to install the node, it ends with: --- dracut Warning: No root device "live:/dev/disk/by-label/ovirt-node-image" found Dropping to debug shell.
sh: can't access tty; job control turned off
dracut: ---
Looking in /dev/disk there is no by-label directory.
I get this error with 'ovirt-node-image-2.2.2-2.2.fc16.iso' and the latest 'ovirt- node-image-2.2.3-1.1.fc16.iso' This is on first install.
Hope to have a host up and running this week.
Any help is appriciated.
Thnx,
Michel
