Error Installing Linux Mint XFCE 17 Over PXE

Post by metric_chicken »

I haven't seen a lot of PXE related posts here or at least ones that are relevant to my issue. I really need help with this issue. The end goal it to have Linux Mint hosted on a PXE server and to automate the installation for about 50 computers or so. I set up a CentOS 7 PXE server and configured the /tftpboot/pxelinux.0/default file to use NFS. The live CD will boot over the network from PXE but the installer fails.

I can pick the language, time, and partitioning. After the user registration page, the installer status prints outs "Retrieving file 85 of 85" and crashes. A window pops up with a "We're sorry..." message.

Here is a dump of the /var/log/installer/debug file:

I'm not sure what other logs to paste here. Assistance would be greatly appreciated.
