So, here's a (somewhat rhetorical) question: why are "efistub" and "pxelinux.0" together in this conversation? Regards, Ady.

Some good news, on another network we have linux dhcp servers under control so there we could change the filename to efi/syslinux.efi and lo and behold, now it works! I figured EFI would not know the difference of these two methods ? Note, only tested on this new server. I will test my laptop tmw. Jocke
