When I replace the line "include colors.txt" with the contents of  
"colors.txt" all works fine.

Seems to be a problem with the command "include".

My "colors.txt" is a symlink to another *.txt file in the same  
directory.

When I write

        include "colors.txt"
        or
        include "colors-special.txt" (not using a symlink)

the grafical menu is shown, but pxelinux uses the default colors.

Viele Gruesse!
Helmut
