Subject: Syslinux 3.70pre9 - sanboot.c32 says: gPXE API not

First off, 3.70 was officially release 2008-07-01, over two years ago.
 Second, you mention a pre-release, released 2008-04-10.  I believe
pre-releases are intended solely for testing prior to a stable
release.

The first suggestion is to try Syslinux 4.02.  The official archive
should contain all of the files you'll need, already compiled, to test
this issue (gpxe/gpxelinux.0 core/pxelinux.0 and
com32/modules/sanboot.c32).
