Hi Walter,
Some question that will help to make helping you possible, and that 
might gove you an iudea where to look at:

/boot should be filled with "normal" kernels from "normal" kernel 
packages. A Kernel package should be specified for ionstalltion in the 
example classes you are using.

Which Version of FAI do you use?
Which Host Distributions and version do you use?
Which distribution are you installing?
Which installation type are you using (network install/cd 
install/dirinstall)?

Did you read the (whole) FAI Guide?

What do you see in the installation log files?
(I expect, there must be some error mentioned about problems when 
installing the kernel, or, if you look at the classes that are defined, 
you don't have any kernel specified to install for any o the classes)
