What do you mean "it can not be used"?  Standard PXE setup involves a
DHCP server and then either a special PXE server or DHCP options and a
TFTP server.  PXELINUX then also requires a config file.  Please read
doc/pxelinux.txt for more information on how to set things up and
doc/syslinux.txt for how to make a config file or config file set.

Is this what you're lacking?  I have this set up in a production
environment and multiple test environments.

What are you going to modify?  Maybe there's something someone here
can help you with.
