[syslinux] ALTERNATE TFTP SERVERS

[Alexander]

Actually I just tried this with pxelinux.0 and wdsnbp.com (renamed to
wdsnbp.0 too) as appended tftp file. It still freezes.

Just as information, loading a config file from the second tftp server
works, but that won't let me switch to the second server.

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?
