Apologies for the noise, it was a mistake from our side
For some reason someone had set the installation directory to be from
aarch64 instead of x86_64

Hi all,
We have a customer, where we are trying to install CentOS 7.3 on the
new Intel Knights Landing nodes, unfortunately, we are unable to
install then using PXE boot.
Now, I have a lot of experience of installation of machines using PXE
boot, so the setup of that is not the problem. Both myself and my
colleagues have looked through the problem, and we are unable to get
much diagnosis of the problem.
When booting the machine via the network, it loads the ramdisk, and
then we get no output, and then the machine reboots. Unfortunately, we
have unable to get anything else on the screen. The machines don't
have VGA, and monitor capable ports, so we are stuck with Serial Over
Lan over IPMI.
We have however, after some searching via search engines, we found
some documentation suggesting that RHEL 7.2 and then with significant
updates on 7.3 do work on these types of machines. We have then
followed the same process to try installing the machines, and we have
managed to get the machine up, and in a working order. However, we'd
like to use CentOS 7.3, and would like to find the process of doing
so, if it is any different
I was wondering to see if anyone else has seen any similar issues, and
if there is a problem here, that we haven't tackled? Any further
debugging we can do? Any assistance on this would be much appreciated
