Dell problems with PXELINUX 3.62
Good day again Daniel,
So the first thing I did was to remove the >NUL for your XMSDSK line and
put a PAUSE after it in AUTOEXEC.BAT. That way, I could see the error
message:
*** XMS RAMdisk v1.9I (FU - 08/98): XMS get free mem error.
Then I noticed that if you run AUTOEXEC.BAT manually from the DOS CLI,
XMSDSK actually succeeds! So that led to a new test: Duplicate the
XMSDSK line.

PXE-E55 ProxyDHCP - No reply to request on port 4011
Hi:
First - pxelinux works great - got it up and running
with few problems.
However - I ran into a snag, I am assuming I have
a configuration issue. Here are the details.
Using: syslinux-1.75
dhcp-3.0pl1
tftp-hpa-0.29
A lot of what I have done is from:

netboot arbitrary linux systems

This is link has been the base for my work so far:

Problems using "configfile" dhcp option with pxelinux
Hello,
I have been trying to use the "configfile" option in the DHCP response
to specify a specific config file when booting. When I specify this in
my /etc/dhcpd.conf file the kernel and initrd are transferred, but the
kernel does not boot. I am using v2.04 of pxelinux. I would appreciate
any help anyone might be able to give. If I remove the "configfile"

problem loading initrd
Hi,
I am trying to load kernel 2.6.6 on a Soekris net4521 from the network
using PXE. I built my initrd with mkinitrd. RedHat nash (while running
linuxrc) hangs after mounting /proc and says "Creating block devices". I
am using the pxelinux.0 from the syslinux-2.10 distribution and the kernel
and initrd were built on redhat 9.0. I built my kernel with BLK_DEV_RAM,

gpxelinux feature request
Hi All,
A while back there was some mention that gpxe may acquire the
ability to receive command-line parameters. I'd dearly love if
this could become a reality.
It would be fantastic if we could have a pxelinux menu config
as follows:
KERNEL gpxelinux.0
APPEND config http://someserver.net/gpxe-for-this-box.cfg
This would solve a huge number of our problems since we

Hi
We have setup a TFTP server on a server running Fedora Core 2. We have
a network/router appliance that acts as our DHCP server. The DHCP
server gives our workstations an IP address then directs them to our
TFTP server looking for the boot file named pxelinux.0 . On the TFTP
server we have a directory called tftpboot in this directory we have the
following files:

newbie question: pxelinux.cfg/default question
Hello all,
I understand that during PXE boot, it goes into the pxelinux.cfg and it states:

upper case hexadecimal, e.g. 192.0.2.91 -> C000025B (you can use the
included progam "gethostip" to compute the hexadecimal IP address for
any host.) If that file is not found, it will remove one hex digit and

RH8.0 kernel lockup with PXELinux on x440
Howdy. We've got a couple IBM x440 (Summit) 8-way Xeon systems that I've
been trying to get netbooting for a while.
Since we use Kickstart and SystemImager to load OSes on our systems, a
system has to be able to netboot before it can be made available to folks
for project use.
System BIOS is the current one, v1.08. They're booting from a planar
BroadCom Tigon3 adapter. BIOS
