Hello

My name is Marcin, I am pleased to write here ; -) a have some problems
with syslinux. I hope that you will help.

On my company we use the syslinux from a long time. Now we use the
sys(pxe)linux 4.06 and working very well.

Yesterday i starting collect the needed files for syslinux 6.02 BIOS on
virtualbox 4.3.
I test everything, memtest, Windows PE, ubuntu etc.. everything works well.

I moved all files to physically device HP Proliant with Windows Server 2008.
All configuration is not changed. Only the "Open TFTP" root folder has
other location.

I checked the new sys(pxe)linux on HP dv7 / HP m6 notebooks. The menu is
working fine the splash screen displayed but I can't boot any option
successfully. When option is selected the kernel / initrd is loading but
after download last file the notebook is restarting itself.

What is wrong? Do the syslinux now required special DHCP options, TFTP?

Thanks
