In my dhcpd.conf file if I set
filename "/pxe/prelinux.0"; the client will start the boot process.
After the DHCP output the screen will display

"TFTP prefix" /pxe/"

Then a series of lines stating Trying to load" pxelinux.cfg/"filename" 
finally trying "default" in the end.
After this point I get

Could not find kernel image: linux
boot:

I know from reading the docs that this should mean the kernel is not in 
the expected place.
In tftpboot/lts I have either "bzImage-2.6.17.8-ltsp-1" or 
"vmlinuz-2.6.17.8-ltsp-1".

I thought tftpboot/lts was the proper location?


The default file is located in /tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg

prompt 0
label linux
   kernel vmlinuz-2.6.17.8-ltsp-1
   append rw root=/dev/ram0 initrd=initramfs.gz

I have also tried the bz file as well. Same results.
I can only boot this far if I have filename "/pxe/pxelinux.0"; set in 
dhcpd.conf .

                 }
         }

If I set filename to the vm or bz image, I will get the "NBP is to 
large" error.

Below is a bit of the log.

I am trying to get this running on Gentoo, if it matters and hopefully 
have included enough info here that it makes sense.

                        Thank You,
                        Sean
