Good day Hogat,

The "gpxe.dsk" file is a file of raw sectors which should be written
directly to the floppy disk, not a file to sit inside a FAT32
filesystem.  Speaking of which, it's interesting that you formatted a
floppy as FAT32 instead of as FAT12.

>From Linux, you'd use the "dd" command to write the file to a floppy
disk.  Assuming that your floppy disk was called "/dev/fd0", then you
would do:

dd if=gpxe.dsk of=/dev/fd0

If you're using Windows, you could use WinImage or "dd for Windows" by
John Newbigin or RaWrite.  "dd for Windows" would go something like:

dd if=gpxe.dsk of=\\.\Floppy0
