I finally managed to solve the issue. It was not enough to chnage the dhcp-boot option. The conf needed some cleaning up to convince dnsmasq that it is in now way the tftp server. I removed some not needed stuff from the file I got from ubuntu wiki. Most important I think was the "kill multicast" dhcp-option=vendor:PXEClient,6,2b If I put it back it stops working. //J
