Syslinux *is* a subproject of Syslinux. Both are bootloaders for
different media, and have nothing to do with Linux.
The bootloader gets told what to load by a configuration file, and the
specified program (referenced by 'kernel' statement in config file) may
have a ramdisk image or not.
So there's no "it's ramdisk image" for any Syslinux version/flavour.
your Linux has an initrd, not pxelinux.
And that makes it a Linux question/problem, not a Syslinux (Pxelinux)
one. Good luck solving it :)
