[syslinux] How to load *.nbi directly with pxelinux / syslinux
Hi all, I need a hint how to load *nbi images directly with gpxe /pxelinux etc. I have some networkboot images available only as *.nbi, loaded by a startrom.0 with "kernel startrom.0" and then a *.lst for the menue of the nbi images. The *nbi images and the startrom.0 is closed source and I have found no solution to unpack and patch them. I need to boot the images directly without the detour of this startrom.0 and the appendent menue. Any hints or links are welcome, it can help our production a lot of time. bye Christoph

If you have already tried this, please report what didn't work. -Andrew
