Syslinux - Jan 2009 - Invalid or corrupt kernel image (pxelinux 3.72, kernel 2.6.28)

I'm trying to boot nfs-root kernel using pxe. Kernel version is 2.6.28,
image size - 2.3MB. tftp server works fine.

The curious part: if I type the kernel image name at "boot:" prompt,
exactly as it appears on the "Loading" line, everything works as
expected.

Does anybody have any ideas what it could be?

By the way, gpxelinux exhibits the same behavior.

a) what does your configuration file look like?

b) are you using the menu system?

c) does it work if you use linux.c32?
