[Cialug] Trying iSCSI mounting

So I had a great idea (or I thought it was a great idea).
CentOS allows you to specify an iSCSI target when you do your installation.
I decided to set up everything through the installer to try and point at the
appropriate devices. My config is below
SDA - SWAP and /boot partitions
SDB (iSCSI target) / partition
The install goes fine, all of the data is copied to the iSCSI target, and
then it tells me to reboot. It reboots, and I get this error :
RedHat nash version 5.1.19.6 starting
iscsistart: transport class version 2.0-071. iscsid version 2.0-071
iscsistart: Portal Group not set. Exiting iscsistart
It then goes on to tell me it can't find the /dev/root , /proc , or /sys
locations (go figure, they're on the iSCSI system).
I manually configured the installer to use a static IP address, and I
thought that the iSCSI information that I put into the
installer/configurator would get passed when I finished the installation.
Is there anything I am missing here?
