No success. syslinux boots

Before 6.X Syslinux used a "Tick-less" timekeeping approach implemented in /core/bios.inc 6.X now implements a "Tick-counting" strategy (timer interrupt) implemented in /core/timer.inc I think this change presents issues when Sysylinux runs on Virtual Machines emulating a BIOS environment as they cannot correctly emulate the timer interrupt; see VMware's pdf: https://www.vmware.com/files/pdf/Timekeeping-In-VirtualMachines.pdf At the moment I'm seeing timing issues on TFTP transfers (lwIP depends on the new interrupt...
