[syslinux] PXELINUX initrd problem

[Jeffrey Borg]

Hi there

I came across this problem with PXELINUX over the last couple of days. The
computer in question is a Compaq Prosignia 300 Server which I am using as a X
Terminal.

The Linux kernel only detects 16m of ram in the computer yet it has 80Meg.

When you specify the mem option to kernel it seems as if pxelinux isn't putting
the initrd image in the correct memory location and thus it won't even bootup.

This setup was working before I decided to upgrade ltsp from 1.x to the latest
version. Before I had a specific kernel compiled for this machine.

Anyone got any idea's about which options can be used to overcome this.

Thanks

Jeffrey Borg
