Why is that posting interesting? That bug was fixed. I said that the
problem would be pxe_call in my last email to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
As I said in my last email, if you want to look at it yourself, make
sure you understand i386 assembler, the PXE specification, and protected-
to-real-and-back mode switching.
Thanks
Tom

Log message:
On return from real mode, reload the GDT using a 16-bit pointer
rather than a 32-bit value. Found by Tim Fletcher <tim (at)
parrswood (dot) manchester (dot) sch (dot) uk> using Etherboot;
thanks to Tim and the Etherboot developers who narrowed this down.
Also bump the pxeboot version to 1.01.
