I'm new to Cobbler but pretty familiar with Kickstart. I've been testing out Cobbler on one PC using Virtualbox for the clients and all the services on the host PC. Using a bridged network for the clients so they can see the whole network. CentOS 6.2 x86_64 all round. Latest updates of all involved software.
The problem I am having is that some kind of kernel issue is occurring during build and when the client reboots it won't fully come up. The screen shows several lines reading:
"FATAL: Could not load /lib/modules/2.6.32-220.el6.x86_64/modules.dep: No such file or directory."
Then:
"Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!"
Booting the client into rescue I can see the last line of the /root/install.log reads:
"/sbin/new-kernel-pkg: line 309: 2970 Killed depmod -ae -F /boot/System.map-$version $version *** FINISHED INSTALLING PACKAGES ***"
Any thoughts on what may be going wrong or am I missing something? Thanks in advance.

Hello!
I had this exact issue. In my case I was installing Centos 6.2 in a VMware VM using graphical mode. My VM had 768MB of RAM but I was setting up only 256MB of swap space. After loads of re-installations I solved this problem increasing my swap partition to 768MB.
I hope it helps you!
