All,
This is awesome... I've been trying to get CentOS/RHEL/Fedora Atomic installed - had
no luck. I then opted to try to install just a normal Live CD (CentOS 6.0, 6.7 and 7.0)
with no luck whatsoever. I thought I followed the directions on the cobbler site - but it
still failed and I needed a break as it was a long drawn out no-go scenario ;)
Appears based upon what I see here that my kernel ops may have been woefully wrong :(
Has anyone had any luck with Atomic?

Yes, absolutely. I have a current legacy PXE server running on
(shudder)
CentOS 4, and it works great for loading the LiveCD image. Below is the PXE
menu config entry associated with it that works on the old server:
label livecd
menu label ^LiveCD
KERNEL devops/livecd/vmlinuz
APPEND rootflags=loop initrd=devops/livecd/initrd.img root=live:/boot.iso
rootfstype=auto ro liveimg quiet nodiskmount nolvmmount rhgb vga=791
nomodeset rd_NO_LUKS rd_NO_MD rd_NO_DM
ONERROR LOCALBOOT 0
It is a CentOS 7 LiveCD, built using Lorax and converted with
livecd-to-pxe-boot from LiveCD Tools (also a Fedora thing).
