Turning Mandriva live-CD into network boot


I have network boot set up and I want to turn a self-built Mandriva live-CD (burnt on CD works great) into network boot images. It would load completely over network.

I use pxelinux.0 as the network boot loader and have copied all the files from the ISO to the network boot root. I use isolinux.cfg as the file pxelinux.cfg/default and kernel + all the other files, including livecd.sqfs, the filesystem image.

It would seem to work fine at first... however, then I get errors about it unable to unmount the root filesystem at 0,0. I have tried many things, but I don't see the issue here now. It loads the image fine and the kernel boots fine. Why won't it mount it? RAM disk size is big enough, btw (altered that).

Are there some other, bigger changes I need to do to change a live-CD image into a live-network boot?
