the volume name in your mkisofs command (—V option) must match the LABEL value in the isolinux.cfg file exactly.... minus the x20 used for spaces.
yours don't match :
-V

hd:LABEL=RHEL-7.2\x20Server.x86_64

I'm reasonably experienced in doing RHEL 5 and 6 kickstarts, but this
is my first pass at building a custom install CD for RHEL 7.
I'm working from the RHEL 7.2 sources (meaning not Centos). I used this:

In isolinux.cfg I have:
...
menu tabmsg Press Tab for full configuration options on menu items.
menu separator # insert an empty line

label Basic KS
menu label ^Kickstart
menu default
kernel vmlinuz

inst.ks=cdrom:/dev/cdrom:/ks/base_ks.cfg
menu separator # insert an empty line
...
grub.conf is:
#debug --graphics

splashimage=@SPLASHPATH@
timeout 60
hiddenmenu
title Install Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.2
findiso
kernel @KERNELPATH@ @ROOT@
initrd @INITRDPATH@
title Test this media & install Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.2
findiso
kernel @KERNELPATH@ @ROOT@ rd.live.check quiet
initrd @INITRDPATH@
Which gets displayed, and then will start Linux.
I am testing on VMware Workstation 12 Player.
However I get stuck at:
[ 23.820146] work still pending
(and yes, I know the 23..... is not all that relevant)
the line to generate the ISO is:
mkisofs -o custom.iso -b isolinux.bin -c boot.cat -no-emul-boot -V
'Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.2' -boot-load-size 4 -boot-info-table -R
-J -v -T isolinux/
There used to be a way to view the virtual terminals (alt-F whatever)
but apparently that's gone away.
Any ideas on what I'm missing here?
