[Stefan Bauer]

Hi,

i'm trying to boot an 135mb acronis iso image with syslinux but have no luck, client gets stuck[1] a few seconds after selecting the image - i used

linux memdisk
initrd acronis/acronis_home_2010_multi.iso
append iso

tftpd-log shows:

Any ideas are greatly appreciated.

[1] no traffic - tcpdump udp port 69

Cheers
