Hi Shao,

I apologize. I thought you were implying that I replace the filename with my
.sys filename.

I am new to the PXE boot environment so please forgive me if I make some
mistakes.

Subject: RE: [Etherboot-discuss] gPXE and Symantec Ghost

Hello again Wayne,

You said:

> gPXE> kernel \tftpboot\pcdos.sys
> \tftpboot\pcdos.sys... Not an executable image (0x2e008001)
> could not fetch \tftpboot\pcdos.sys: Not an executable image
(0x2e008001)

However, the command I had suggested was:

gPXE> kernel ${filename}

which would have downloaded the .pxe file, rather than the .sys file.
Anyway, it doesn't matter.  .pxe files seem to work all right.

Yes, I can reproduce your issue.  The .sys file does a
PXENV_GET_CACHED_INFO call for the cached reply, and possibly doesn't
like something in gPXE's response.  I tried setting BufferLimit and a
few other things, but so far to no avail.
