Dear Live DVD developers:

I installed SL7.1 as a VM from SL6.6 KVM using
SL-71-x86_64-2015-03-27-LiveDVDgnome.iso

The Nitrogen menuentry in grub.cfg causes a kernel
panic (the rescue modes do work after fixing a typo).

kernel panic:

       Failed to access perfctr msr (MSR c1 is 0)
       kernel panic -- not syncing:L VFS: Unable to mount root fs on
unknown-block(0,0)


This issue its corrected by the following change and addition
in /boot/grub2/grub.cfg "Nitrogen menuentry".

Old:
     linux16 /vmlinuz-3.10.0-229.1.2.el7.x86_64 root=/dev/sda2 ro rhgb 
quiet LANG=en_US.UTF-8


New:
     linux16 /vmlinuz-3.10.0-229.1.2.el7.x86_64 root=/dev/sda2 ro quiet 
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
     initrd16 /initramfs-3.10.0-229.1.2.el7.x86_64.img


To summarize:
    on the "linux16" line, I dropped "rhgb"
    and I added an "initrd16" line under the "linux16" line

Many thanks,
-T
