Hi,

just switched from syslinux-4.0.4 to syslinux-5.0.1 and noticed that 
there is no more progress shown when downloading files from HTTP or TFTP.

Do i have to change something in my setup?

I'm usering vesamenu.c32 here is a sample what my menu looks like (just 
partial)

[code]
         # Default boot option to use
         DEFAULT vesamenu.c32
         MENU BACKGROUND binary.jpg
         # Prompt user for selection
         PROMPT 0
         # Menu Configuration
         KBDMAP german.kbd
         MENU WIDTH 80
         MENU MARGIN 10
         MENU PASSWORDMARGIN 3
         MENU ROWS 12
         MENU TABMSGROW 18
         MENU CMDLINEROW 18
         MENU ENDROW 24
         MENU PASSWORDROW 11
         MENU TIMEOUTROW 20
         MENU MASTER PASSWD *****
         MENU PASSPROMPT Gesicherter Bereich, bitte Passwort eingeben:

         menu color hotkey 0 #ff00ff00 #ee000000 std
         menu color hotsel 0 #ffffffff #85000000 std

         LABEL ghostgethap1
                MENU LABEL Ghost HA-Pool 1
                kernel http://***.***.***.187/memdisk
                initrd 
http://***.***.***.187/GHOST/Hagen/Windows/7pe_ghost.iso
                APPEND iso 
GHOST_OPTIONS='-clone,MODE=restore,SRC=@MCHAP1,DST=1 -IB -FX -sure -RB'

[/code]

Oh btw. if that does any difference. I'm chainloading iPXE and then load 
pxelinux.0 with my local DHCP Server.
