These steps could help to get more information from the VM while are installing. This is to discard some kernel or installer crash.

- Go into /opt/platform/config/18.08/pxelinux.cfg. This folder has the boot options/menu for each controller/compute added in the system. You can see files where the mac address is the filename.
  - Select open the file that matches the node having problems and modify:
       1) Replace console=ttyS0,115200 to console=tty0. This way you can see in the screen of the VM what was going on in the installation
       2) In the APPEND line add at the end: debug loglevel=8. This is to get more output from the kernel in case there is a crash somewhere.
   - Reboot the VM, if needed change the boot order of the VM to boot first using network.
