Problem : Network Installation with PXE Boot OpenSuse 11.3

Hello, I have this problem installing by network with pxe. I had configured a server with dhcp and tftp, It all seems to work fine. Then I try to install this other machine by pxe and it takes the ip address and it loads the kernel vmlinuz and initrd, but it stops with this errors:

resume device not found (ignoring)
Waiting for device /dev/sda1 to appear: ok
fsck from util-linux-ng 2.17.2
/sbin/fsck.ext4 (1) – / ] fsck.ext4 -a -C0 /dev/sda1
fsck.ext4: Bad magic number in super-block while trying to open /dev/sda1
/dev/sda1:
The superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2 filesystem. If the device is valid and it really constains an ext2 filesystem (and not swap or ufs or something else), then the superblock is corrupt, and you might try running e2fsck with an alternative superblock:
e2fsck -b 8139 <device>

fsck failed. Mounting root device read-only.
Mounting root /dev/sda1
mount -o ro -t ext4 /dev/sda1 /root
2.062255] EXT4-fs (sda1): VFS: can’t find ext4 filesystem
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda1, missing codepage or helper program, or other error.


My default file looks like this:

PROMPT 1
DEFAULT install
DISPLAY messages
TIMEOUT 20

LABEL install
KERNEL vmlinuz
APPEND initrd=initrd vga=0x0314 install=nfs://192.168.1.254/repo/oss/

LABEL local
LOCALBOOT 0

Any Help will be appreciated

The file system is bad on at least /dev/sda1

This could be a bad disk or you need to run fsck on the partition when this partition is NOT mounted.

Or you could try again. If it fails again it is most likely a hardware problem. (ie bad disk)
