[syslinux] Problem in getting tftp transfer to succeed

That's what I also thought ... but you start doubting when something 
doesn't work which. The funny thing is that indeed with the standard 
tftp server the transfer even begins, but then the client issues a 
second non valid request, and interrupts transfer ... bizar.

I don't have the possibility to go to another server, however, I'll try 
another client on Monday.
This to exclude a bug in the client pxe code.
