[syslinux] gpxelinux feature request

I thought gpxelinux.0 (3.71) still had problems with chain booting other
network boot programs. Has this changed or can I use gpxelinux.0
in production environments everywhere that I would pxelinux.0 ?

I'm not sure what you mean by "embedded scripts" do you mean
the EMBEDDED_IMAGE definition in the gpxe Makefile to hard-code
a url to a script ? Is this specific to gpxe or does gpxelinux also have
this feature.

Apologies for being more than a little confused. I would still dearly
love to be able to somehow pass a URL with the clients MAC or
UUID embedded in it.

Cheers,

Doug
