It looks like you just need to specify the location of the stage2
installer. The vmlinuz/initrd don't have any UI, they're just the
stage1 boot component. The installation UI is in stage2, and its
location is a required option. See isolinux/isolinux.cfg of the boot
media for working examples, or
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/7/html/installation_guide/chap-anaconda-boot-options
for documentation.
