Thanks, I figured out what I was doing wrong. Basically I misunderstood how gpxe worked. What I was trying to do is install ubuntu over the network using something like BKO. I didn't realize the instructions were to install/boot over my own network. Once I dl the gpxe.dsk from BKO I realized how it works and I was good to go.
