[syslinux] Fetching TFTP server from dos/memlinux via pxelinux?
I am using pxelinux to boot a dos image using memdisk. Now what I'd like to do is connect via tftp and fetch an additional file from DOS. I am using the 'keeppxe' memdisk option; can I access the pxe stack from DOS, and retrieve the TFTP server address? I am using MS-DOS currently, and syslinux-1.76. -- Andre Dalle [andre at dalle.ca]
