[syslinux] PXE Problem

[Jacob Alifrangis]

Update on Situation:

	The only problem is with Virtual PC 2007, I tested thismorning on a laptop with a Broadcom chipset, and the software works fine.


	Can someone with a bit more knowledge of the code download the free copy of VPC 2007 from Microsoft and check into this, it would really help with things.

Thanks -j

Subject: [syslinux] PXE Problem

I am testing out a new configuration with PXELinux on our network, and
have run into a snag.

 

Here is the problem:

 

                Whenever my client (Virtual PC) boots to the new PXE
config file, it locks up when it hits the MENU TITLE Directive.

 

                If I am using the vesamenu.c32 or menu.c32, roughly the
same thing happens, with vesa, the screen switches to graphical mode and
locks up, the menu.c32 just locks up.

 

                Any help would be appreciated.
