[syslinux] more on PXELinux confiuration file woes and "blkSize"
Hi I just joined this list so sorry i don't just reply folowing mails. I experienced the same problem where the boot just stop after reaching Ready. I am using my own tftp server written in Java which previously has succeeded a pxe boot. While searching for the "Ready" problem I found that the tftpserver returned the wrong blksize. Instead off returning the size off the data it returned the size off the packet (diff =4 octets) after solving this my boot went through. don't now if this is the problem but worth considering? / Kasper Previusly messages --------------------------------------------------- Fredrik Nordgren fno at fno.mine.nu the Tue Jun 17 14:53:56 PDT 2003 wrote . .
