Hi there, I have experienced problems on HP Elitebook 2560p and 8460p latest firmware installed: 2560p 68SSU ver. F50. 08/04/2014 8460p 68SCF ver. F50. 08/04/2014 PXE boot, syslinux.efi gets perfectly TFTP transferred, it nevers asks for ldlinux.e64, and immediately gives up.

Shamelessly, and off-topic, but not _that_ much... :) For several months we have seen reports (of different matters) here in the Syslinux Mailing List in which some HP model(s) have been having problems network-booting (in UEFI mode; I don't recall
