doesn't rhel6 use dracut for the initrd now?



Yes.

You will need to install dracut-network before making the initrd image. Otherwise you won't have the network boot capability in there.

After installing dracut-network, all future use of dracut for building the initrd will include the network drivers. That is why its not installed by default.

example:

# yum install dracut-network
...
# cd /boot
# dracut newinitrd.img `uname -r`

That will give you a usable image for network booting. Just copy the current vmlinuz and the newinitrd.img to your tftpserver.

Good Luck!
