Looks like the problem is:
[ 16.581656] localhost ostree-prepare-root[696]: ostree-prepare-root: Couldn't find specified OSTree root '/sysroot//ostree/boot.1/fedora-coreos/7ee784y
which is strange. Have you seen this failure multiple times?
Unrelated, but your kernel options have some cosmetic issues:
coreos.inst=yes
Unneeded.
coreos.inst.text=yes
Nonexistent option.
coreos.inst.install_dev=sda
Legacy behavior; better to write coreos.inst.install_dev=/dev/sda
.
coreos.autologin=tty1
No such option on FCOS.
coreos.inst.stream=stable coreos.inst.image_url=http://10.20.5.7/fedora-coreos-32.20200601.3.0-metal.x86_64.raw.xz
It doesn't make sense to specify both of these.
@bgilbert, @lucab Thanks for the help. The error was in PXE options and now the system installs & boots nicely.
I am also thinking out loud if there needs to be a console output with a pause or something which indicates any PXE option ignored or possible errors.
Glad you got it working. Kernel options are parsed by many different tools, so it'd be difficult to produce a comprehensive list of valid options to check against.
PXE install of latest
fedora-coreos-32.20200601.3.0-*x86_64
on an appliance with no display. The same install on a laptop via PXE worked.Boot options are very basic:
