 What was (is) the path and name of your PXELINUX configuration file 
during all that time that it worked as expected? Which version of 
PXELINUX are you using?

 Is there anything inside this new "syslinux" subdirectory? What's 
its purpose? (What's the reason for its creation? Does it _have_ to 
be named "syslinux" and in that specific location?)
