You can't load Syslinux-4.04 vesamenu.c32 directly; you must use PXELINUX to load vesamenu.c32.

An easy option is to use the pre-built binary gpxe/gpxelinux.0 which is gPXE-1.0.0's undionly.kkpxe (with minor patches), core/pxelinux.0 and a script to run PXELINUX. -- -Gene _______________________________________________ gPXE mailing list [email protected] http://etherboot.org/mailman/listinfo/gpxe
