Yes, the images are on the master node of the cluster.  We are using PXE.  The nodes successfully dhcp to the master node, before they hang.  We're having some other problems now that I've spoke with vendors about, so hopefully we'll be making some progress.  Thanks for the reply!!

Either your hardware is so completed screwed that the kernel can't start
to boot, or the kernel image has been corrupted in some way. Can you
make any more progress with a simple Redhat installation CD?
