pxechain.com is supposed to be used to load another pxe program, like
a copy of PXELINUX, off of another server.  It might be freezing if
you're passing it a normal kernel (like the Linux kernel).  It should
accept another PXE program.

If 192.168.0.3 is the new TFTP, 'APPEND 192.168.0.3::pxelinux.0'
should work (assuming that's the name of the file, of course).

Is this what you're already doing?
