Hi 

I'm having problems PXE-booting a Sun-Blade 100x.
As the subject line says, booting stops during "Loading /bzimage...."

PXELINUX 2.06 0x3f46af8 was compiled on an AMD Athlon (not mobile), kernel
2.6.6, bzImage compiled on this system as well.


The 0A940B15 file:

DEFAULT /bzImage
APPEND ip=10.148.11.21 root=/dev/nfs nfsroot=10.148.11.170:/tftpboot/10.148.11.21 console=ttyS0,9600
SAY Hello from Syslinux


I'm using tftp-hpa-0.34 (on Gentoo Linux), I tried with tftpd from
iputils with the same result.

Am I missing something obvious?
Is there any way to debug this problem?

I would be thankful for any hints.

Regards,
Chris Osicki
