Currently, the TFTP configuration file discovery process will request a set of files based on the UUID, MAC address, lease IP address and eventually fall back to "default": /mybootdir/pxelinux.cfg/b8945908-d6a6-41a9-611d-74a6ab80b83d /mybootdir/pxelinux.cfg/01-88-99-aa-bb-cc-dd /mybootdir/pxelinux.cfg/C000025B [...] /mybootdir/pxelinux.cfg/C /mybootdir/pxelinux.cfg/default When serving PXE config files to machines of different architectures (requiring separate boot images and config files), thi...

...hexadecimal IP address for any host.) If that file is not found, it will remove one hex digit and try again. Ultimately, it will try looking for a file named "default" (in lower case). As an example, if the boot file name is /mybootdir/pxelinux.0, the UUID is b8945908-d6a6-41a9-611d-74a6ab80b83d, the Ethernet MAC address is 88:99:AA:BB:CC:DD and the IP address 192.0.2.91, it will try: /mybootdir/pxelinux.cfg/b8945908-d6a6-41a9-611d-74a6ab80b83d /mybootdir/pxelinux.cfg/01-88-99-aa-bb-cc-dd /mybootdir/pxelinux.cfg/C000025B /mybootdir/pxelinux.cfg/C000025 /m...

...ns my test VM seems to freeze. I further note that when I successfully pxechn to a remote lpxelinux.0 it doesn't seem to be quite as verbose as pxelinux.0 once was about the search enumerations it makes in it's sibling pxelinux.cfg directory, which I miss: /mybootdir/pxelinux.cfg/b8945908-d6a6-41a9-611d-74a6ab80b83d /mybootdir/pxelinux.cfg/01-88-99-aa-bb-cc-dd /mybootdir/pxelinux.cfg/C0A8025B /mybootdir/pxelinux.cfg/C0A8025 /mybootdir/pxelinux.cfg/C0A802 /mybootdir/pxelinux.cfg/C0A80 /mybootdir/pxelinux.cfg/C0A8 /mybootdir/pxelinux.cfg/C0A /mybootdir/pxelinux.cfg/C0 /mybootdir/pxelinux.c...
