I have installed Microsoft iscsi boot initiator and san boot as mentioned o= n website (http://etherboot.org/wiki/sanboot/winnt_iscsi) and followed the = steps mentioned, installing win XP on 4 gb partition and trying to boot it = from a Linux machine.

So, in order to debug, I installed windbg and I noticed some irregularities= : "No sBFT found". I am trying to san boot on a Windows Desktop (Dell model). I am attaching the debugging transcript I got from windbg, Can someone ple= ase let me know what's wrong? Really appreciate your help in advance.
