Hi all,

I figured out the problem with chainloading pxeboot from PXELINUX: 
pxeboot violates the written PXE spec by being > 32K in size, and there 
was a bug in PXELINUX which would truncate the file size to 16 bits.  I 
fixed that bug and released SYSLINUX 2.07-pre8; and at least for me it 
now works to chainload pxeboot.

Please try it out; I'd like to release 2.07 as soon as possible since 
there are quite a number of fixes that have accumulated by now.
