Hi All,

I'm trying to move from gPXE to iPXE and I seem to be having difficulty.  In gPXE the following script works and does not get into a constant loop, however, with iPXE it goes into a never ending loop.  Am I missing something here??

#!ipxe

echo "Hi There!  We will be booting from http://mirror.its.sfu.ca/ today."
echo "It is assumed that you have dhcp networking."

autoboot
set 209:string pxelinux.cfg/default
set 210:string http://mirror.its.sfu.ca/tftpboot/

echo "Here we go!"
chain http://mirror.its.sfu.ca/tftpboot/pxelinux.0
