[ipxe-devel] cpio on the fly generation breaks for large images

[Hummel Frank]

Pxelinux eliminated by changing dhcpd.conf to directly load iPXE via Bios PXE. 
Result: no change. Still 0xC0000017 or 0xC000000D error when booting.

Creating the bootable USB stick did not work for an unknown reason - stick didn't boot, but creating the CDROM worked.

Disabled loading the Bios PXE extensions.
Attached a USB CDROM and booted the iPXE CDROM. Result: no change. Still 0xC0000017 or 0xC000000D error when booting.
Tested with Realtek RTL8111E and Intel I210 on a Cedarview platform with Bios AMI core 4.6.5.3 (my worst one).

Could you eliminate pxelinux from this boot chain, and see if the problem still occurs if you chainload iPXE directly from the BIOS PXE (or load iPXE from a USB key instead of chainloading)?

Thanks,

Michael
